Baltimore Montessori Public's

HANDS ON! Gala 2020

Every year, funds raised at Baltimore Montessori Public Charter School's HANDS ON! Gala help us close the significant gap between our public funding and the true cost of our innovative and ambitious programs that serve 450 students in PreK3 through 8th grade from 26 different Baltimore City zip codes .

This year, we are taking the HANDS ON! Gala online. Due to the restrictions required by the COVID-19 pandemic, we will be celebrating Baltimore's only public Montessori school virtually instead of in person. While so many aspects of our educational experience have moved online, it has not lessened our commitment to bringing a high quality educational experience to children throughout the city, nor has it lessened our need. So please consider being a part of our virtual HANDS ON! 2020 by clicking any of the links below. We appreciate your support.

8pm Thursday, June 18th!

We will be drawing our lucky RAFFLE winner!
