The challenges presented by the pandemic have further accelerated what we already knew to be true: the world our students enter upon graduation requires a different level of preparation than what we have traditionally provided to them. I am reminded of the parent who once stopped me at a store to share his frustrations about his daughter’s inability to find a job after successfully graduating from one of our CTE programs.

  • Open Space and Recreation Design and Development
    middle branch Baltimore City Department of Planning The Rowing Club was constructed in the 1980’s and is still operating Open Space and successfully today. Recreation “One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.” - William Shakespeare Sustainable open space and recreation systems protect and enhance the social, ecological and economic viability of community open spaces. These spaces are not treated as ‘isolated’ or ‘empty’ areas between properties, but rather inter-connected elements, with each serving as integral pieces of a larger system. In the Middle Branch Plan, the water and ecological systems provide the foundation of the waterfront community. The overall goals of the Middle Branch Open Space and Recreation program are to maintain a sufficient amount and distribution of open space such that diverse uses and opportunities can be created, including natural habitat areas, passive recreation areas and active recreation areas. PB Middle Branch Master Plan Open Space and Recreation 19 • Natural habitat areas will be set aside for visual enjoyment and guided education only. These areas will ‘belong’ to the birds and animals for their use. • Passive recreation areas will include spaces for sitting, picnicking and quiet contemplation. • Active recreation areas include spaces for ball playing, scull racing, fishing or other water-based recreation. All of these spaces will highlight the intrinsic attributes of the Middle Branch’s environment, minimize ecological impacts and provide economic and social benefits on a long term, sustainable basis. In the Middle Branch, open space and recreation will contribute to the quality of life, accessible to everyone. Our open space and recreation system will bring communities together through accessibility, People escaped the city and came to the quiet Middle Branch to programming and education.
