Baltimore County submitted new boundaries for the 2026-2027 year. Charles County added two new schools and Montgomery County added one new school.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>This information is crucial for various stakeholders to understand and visualize the geographic extent of school attendance zones. The annual updates ensure the dataset remains current, reflecting any changes in attendance boundaries as per the guidelines of the Enough Act legislation.
