Gloria spoke with Cynthia Bischoff, Family Involvement Senior Specialist and AACPS partner of the Kids Helping Kids campaign, about Harvest for the Hungry. She emphasized the value in student participation for a fundraiser like this, saying, “It gives the students of AACPS an opportunity to give back in their community and be part of a large project to help neighbors. We know that students need to be nourished in order to learn, and this campaign helps us provide food to families who are facing food insecurity.” Check out the full article here.

7:40 a.m ., 9/12/25: An accident has closed westbound Route 50 in Annapolis near Route 450. This will cause delays in students being transported to school this morning, most notably in the Annapolis, Broadneck, and South River clusters. At this time, all buses will make all stops but there will likely be delays in getting to some stops. Families transporting students to school in those clusters this morning and staff traveling to schools in those clusters should allow additional time for travel.
