Victory Villa Elementary Replacement School and Boundary Change

Victory Villa Elementary Community Boundary Study

At its meeting on June 13, 2017, the Board of Education of Baltimore County (Board) approved new elementary school boundaries for schools in the northeast area of the county to help relieve persistent overcrowding among area elementary schools.

During this meeting, the Board modified the boundary committee’s recommended option D1.

Note regarding Vincent Farm ES: Vincent Farm Elementary School will also be represented in the upcoming New Northeast Area Elementary School boundary process to begin in September and conclude in the spring of 2018. The approved option for the Victory Villa ES Boundary Study Process affected only the southern portion of Vincent Farm ES boundary. The northern portion of the Vincent Farm ES boundary will likely be considered and recommended for change in the upcoming boundary study. Thus, the boundary change for Vincent Farm is not yet complete, but will be so at the conclusion of the next boundary study.

See the links below titled Map of the approved boundary Option A, Data tables of the approved boundary Option A, and Interactive mapping tool for descriptions of the proposed maps.

Schools affected by the boundary change include:

Victory Villa Elementary School
Glenmar Elementary School
Hawthorne Elementary School
Martin Boulevard Elementary School
Middlesex Elementary School
Orems Elementary School
Shady Spring Elementary School
Vincent Farm Elementary School

Boundary Change Implementation

Students whose homes are zoned to a new school as a result of the boundary change decision will move when the new boundaries are effective for the 2018-2019 school year.
Families will be notified in March 2018 regarding how the new boundaries may affect them.
