Navigating Baltimore Schools (NBS) is a consulting service designed to inform and simplify the process of applying to preschool, lower, middle, and upper schools in the greater metropolitan Baltimore area. It offers individualized service and usable forms that are geared to meet your available time, interest, and needs.

 

NBS’s website is designed to help you navigate the Preschool, Elementary, Middle and High school search process in the greater Baltimore metropolitan area. We know that education is important to you and your child, but wonder if anybody ever told you that the process of looking for schools could be so challenging and time consuming? Let NBS help you negotiate the maze; public, independent, parochial, charter, single sex, co-ed, language immersion, structured, unstructured, block scheduling, the arts, music, dance, physical education, athletics, STEM, technology, grades, testing, parent involvement, tuition, financial assistance … we get it and want to make sure you get it too in one site that is easy to use and individualize.

 

Our goal is provide you with the tools you need to understand the school search process, organize the information you collect and keep track of the various dates, records, and your impressions so you can review and make informed comparisons.

 

NBS #1 covers the basic questions you should ask and provides an overview of the application process and procedures.

NBS #2 builds upon the basic questions covered in NBS #1 with an online “downloadable” form and checklist ready for your use. Online, you will be able to keep track of appointments and important deadlines, organize and compare school information, and the personal reactions of you and your child.

NBS #3 perhaps you are moving into the Baltimore area, or you would prefer someone to assist you in scheduling school appointments; then NBS #3 is there for you. On an hourly basis we will provide “concierge service” designed specifically for you.

 

We have spent the past 25+ years working with families and children as they looked at secondary schools. This should be an exciting process not a daunting one. NBS will make sure you are informed and prepared. It will help support and guide you and your child. We look forward to meeting and working with you.
