The Orioles and Baltimore City are on the cusp of The Next Chapter. To contribute to the momentum of this resurgence, the Orioles have engaged in an Adopt-A-School initiative, partnering with Harlem Park Elementary Middle School located in West Baltimore, and Baltimore City Public Schools.

Harlem Park’s vision is to foster an environment where students are nurtured academically, socially, and emotionally. School leaders value ensuring that their students leave Harlem Park rich in experiences and opportunities. Our vision is to have a long-lasting, beneficial relationship with the Harlem Park community, staying with these kids from Pre-K to when they enter the workforce.

This initiative will provide assistance to the teachers, staff, principals, and administration of the school, which in turn will provide resources for their students to not just survive, but to thrive. We will invite students, staff, and families to Camden Yards for events including our City Connect x Harlem Park Fridays, but we also want to be present in their school building and in their neighborhoods. We truly want the best for our city and by doing that, we need to use our resources to invest in the future of Baltimore.

The Baltimore Orioles are very excited to announce this partnership with Harlem Park and can’t wait to have a positive impact on a community within our great city. We hope to inspire the students and transform the school in an impactful way for years to come, helping prepare them for high school, college and beyond.
