Baltimore, MD - Feb. 17, 2026 - The four-year high school graduation rate in Baltimore County Public Schools has fallen to a 14-year low, despite record funding.
Now, one Baltimore County Board of Education member says graduation rates are down because BCPS has the wrong priorities.
Maggie Domanowski, four years ago, ran for Baltimore County Board of Education because she says the district was failing in its core mission.
“We're not preparing these students to be productive adults, and we have to get better at it,” Domanowski told Project Baltimore.
