Baltimore City Public Schools Honors 12 Students Killed During 2021-22 School Year

Twelve students who died from gun violence over this past school year were honored during the Baltimore City Public Schools’ 5th annual Day of Remembrance. The ceremony was held Thursday morning on the steps of the school district’s headquarters on North Avenue. BCPS CEO Dr. Sonja Brookins Santelises led the commemoration with a reading of each student’s name who died followed by a moment of silence. Each student’s name was also written across the top of a balloon structure.
