High School Kids in Hard Hats? Baltimore County Magnet Schools Assessed

These kids say they are finding their passion, before college.

Baltimore County has a variety of programs in its Magnet School system, ranging from engineering and design to carpentry and cosmetology.

School officials are taking a hard look at how the programs are working. See the WBAL video for more.

Residents are also invited to take an online survey to provide the Baltimore County Public School System with feedback on its magnet programs.

The online survey will be available through Sept. 28.
