Our Educational Philosophy. Learning is…

Students are scientists, urban planners, historians and activists, investigating real community problems and collaborating with peers to develop creative, actionable solutions.
Students at all levels are pushed and supported to do more than they think they can. Excellence is expected in the quality of their work and thinking.
Students apply their skills and knowledge to real-world issues and problems and make positive change in their communities. They see the relevance of their learning and are motivated by understanding that learning had purpose.
Through formal structures of presentation, exhibition, critique, and data analysis, students and teachers build a shared vision of pathways to achievement.
School leaders, teachers, students, and families share rigorous expectations for quality work, achievement, and behavior. Trust, respect, responsibility, and joy in learning permeate the school culture.

Our Mission

The mission of the Lillie May Carroll Jackson School (LMCJS), a charter school in Baltimore city serving girls in grades 5-8, is to offer a supportive 21st century learning environment for scholars to reach their maximum potential through rigorous academic course work, character development and leadership opportunities.

Our Vision

The Lillie May Carroll Jackson School envisions a world where all young women, regardless of their background, have the skills, tools and qualities to develop as leaders in their communities and the world.
