Want to talk about school safety? You'll have plenty of opportunities next week.
Nancy Grasmick and Elijah Cummings are co-hosting a daylong school safety summit at UMBC on Tuesday, an event planned in response to the Jolita Berry incident. Then on Tuesday night, the city school system hosts the first of three "Safe and Supportive Schools Family and Community Conversations." (Times and locations are below.)
Will any good come out of these forums? There surely have been a lot of them over the years, and the same problems remain. And yet, there's clearly still a strong appetite for more.
