Cherry Hill Learning Zone


About the Partnership

The Cherry Hill Learning Zone initiative represents a partnership among the Baltimore City Public School System, Baltimore City government, Towson University and Cherry Hill's grassroots organizations. Working together, the partnership is leveraging its resources to build upon the strengths of the Cherry Hill community to meet its needs and nurture its potential in areas related to community development, economic development and educational development.

By engaging in sensitive and deliberative conversations with Cherry Hill’s civic leaders, community organizations and citizens, the Learning Zone will serve as a resource for the academic success of Cherry Hill’s youth and improved quality of life of its residents.

Steering Committee 

A Steering Committee comprising local community leaders, residents, school principals and external partners was established to oversee the activities of the Cherry Hill Learning Zone and to enhance communication with partner agencies.
