On March 2, John Hopkins University President Ronald Daniels and Baltimore City Public Schools Chief Executive Officer Andrés Alonso announced a new program offering University staff up to two days per year of paid leave to pursue service opportunities in the Baltimore City public schools. Through the “Johns Hopkins Takes Time for Schools” program, University employees will share their time, talent, and dedication with Baltimore’s students, teachers, principals, and administrators. Service projects will include working directly with students, offering management and leadership support to administrators, and providing facilities and infrastructure improvements.
