The county’s $3.7 billion budget to look at how we going to resolve some other issues that are going to come up.” He referred to challenges imposed on local governments from the Kirwan Commission’s recommendations for billions in education funding statewide and the minimum wage on other pay scales. Also, because the county has changed, so has funding needs. For example, years ago police only had vests that protected the front; one of the animal services division’s primary tasks was to give out cages for crabbing and animal welfare was not an issue; and firefighters fought fires without the breathing apparatus they have today. Additionally, the school system didn’t focus on issues that are front and center today, like special education, IEPs and ESOL. Now that he’s not bound to working 70 to 85 hours a week, Dorsey says he will spend more time with his wife, Yolanda, and mother. As director of Christian education at Colonial Baptist Church in Randallstown, he plans to dedicate more time to working in the church. He also dabbled in politics, and he says he was the first black elected to any office in Baltimore County in 1982 to Democratic Central Committee on a ticket with a majority white district. (Dorsey points out that his sister, Linda Dorsey-Walker, was elected in a majority white district without being on a ticket.) Why did he stay with the county so long? “If you’re a steward (a manager of resources and funds), you have to be faithful,” Dorsey said. “That’s what motivated me. I wanted to please God, I wanted to have the respect of my family in terms of providing for them.”

Baltimore County Public Schools representatives, county officials, and students ceremonially broke ground at Chadwick Elementary School in Windsor Mill on June 6. The ceremony kicked off the $45.1 million replacement- school project for Chadwick, conceived under the previous administration’s Schools for Our Future construction program. It is expected to be complete in time for the 2020-2021 school year. Constructed in 1966, the existing building is 50,235 square feet with an enrollment of 649 students—about 240 overcapacity. There are nine portable classrooms and a modular addition. The new 99,616-square-foot school will have a planned capacity of about 735 seats. The school is to relieve overcrowding at the nearby Johnnycake and Dogwood elementary schools. Among those delivering remarks were Chadwick principal Kate Miller, Interim Superintendent Verletta White, school board member Makeda Scott, and Baltimore County Executive John Olszewski Jr. Also present were school board member Cheryl Pasteur, Councilmen Tom Quick and Julian Jones, and Del. Charles Sydnor. Calling Chadwick a “school of champions,” Scott said the replacement school will be a “home away from home for each of PHOTOS: BCPS PHOTOS: the hundreds of Chadwick students.” Baltimore County Public Schools representatives, elected officials and students break ground She added, “By standing up for students, we are being present for a replacement school for Chadwick Elementary, which is expected to open for students and offering our support and belief in a better future and in each in the 2020-21 school year. child as an agent of that future.”

In response to his May 21 selection over several candidates for the at- large position, White quoted Proverbs 16:9: “We can make our plans but the Lord determines our steps.” In his first try for political office last year, White, an Air Force and Army veteran and retired educator, ran unsuccessfully for election to the Central Committee. However, he remained active supporting elected officials, participating in political activities, and attending community forums. He was later selected as an associate member for District 44B. When the member at large slot became open, he applied and won. “As the member at large, I will continuously go out into the community on a regular basis —not only during the election year, but the years leading up to an election,” White said. “I will register voters, and excite, motivate, organize and educate the community and the party in such a way as to ensure a strong turnout on election day.” White and his wife Berdetta volunteer regularly for their church.
