Maryland's Tomorrow

Maryland's Tomorrow


Maryland's Tomorrow is a grade 9-12 program offered in five Baltimore County high schools: Chesapeake, Dundalk, Kenwood, Patapsco, and Sparrows Point.

Maryland’s Tomorrow provides school counseling and academic support to students at risk of dropping out of school. Although each program has been designed to meet the individual needs for a specific population each student is given study skills preparation, individualized academic support and career planning modules.

School Counseling Services
The school counselor provides support to meet the educational, vocational, and personal needs of each Maryland's Tomorrow student. Issues such as class achievement, conflict resolution, peer pressure, interpersonal and social skills are addressed in ongoing counseling sessions. Because of the student/counselor ratio, students have easier and more frequent access to counseling services.
