Baltimore County superintendent ushers in hope on first day of school amid changes like reduced bussing

Myriam Rogers, Baltimore County Public Schools’ newest superintendent, started off her first day of the school year Monday at Woodlawn High School, where her education journey began 27 years ago. Rogers, who previously went by the last name Yarbrough, walked the halls of the very school where she once taught chemistry. Since teaching at Woodlawn, her classroom was converted to a guidance counselor suite, and she rose in the school system’s ranks to become its top leader.
