Brock Bridge

Who We Are: Our Community and School Culture

  • Each of our schools’ leadership teams analyzed the factors that impact their students’ ability to engage deeply and achieve academic success. They shared stories of their students and families, some of whom are facing serious challenges associated with physical wellness, social-emotional stability, unique learning needs, family security, mental health, violence, and food/housing uncertainties. They discussed the obstacles that their students face daily when preparing to come to school on time, ready to learn.

    Questions such as the following drove discussions around Anne Arundel County: 

    • What are the challenges and obstacles that negatively affect our students’ engagement and achievement most significantly and why?
    • Are we analyzing our data and listening closely to learn about all of our students when we seek to understand our learners’ social-emotional and academic struggles?
    • How do cultural differences, language challenges, transportation difficulties, health problems, and frequent family relocation (mobility) serve as obstacles to school success for our students?
    • What resources and supports are available within AACPS and across our county to support students and families in need?  How do we help our families receive the supports they need?

Our School Culture

  • Brock Bridge has a positive school culture where families are encouraged to be active participants in their child’s education. Parents are welcome to attend various events, including classroom visits, school-wide activities, and after school events. Our PTA is a partnership between parents and staff who are strong advocates for teaching and learning. The PTA sponsors various events for students, staff, and the community such as the Fall Festival, assemblies, book fairs and family craft nights. Other community and business partnerships with Patient First and local churches support school activities, such as PBIS, wellness programs, after-school programs, and programs that assist families in need. 

    Through our Global Studies program, students explore topics that serve them in the school, local, and global communities with a focus on mindfulness, kindness, and teamwork. Students in all grade levels benefit from in and out-of-school field trips to broaden their learning experiences. Students also participate in a variety of clubs, such as Sea Perch Club, 24 Game Club, Drama Club, B.O.Y.S. Mentoring Club, and ESOL Homework Club. Students are able to explore multiple cultural and ethnic perspectives due to the connections EL teachers make within classroom and school-wide learning experiences.

CHALLENGES TO STUDENT SUCCESS

  • The leadership team in each AACPS school reviewed all of the factors that may influence their students’ engagement and achievement in school; these challenges include academic data elements, community history, and socio-economic aspects of each community. The school’s leadership team identified the following elements as impactful for their students.
