Govans Elementary

Neighborhood/Enrollment Zone

Govans Elementary serves its neighborhood zone (21212) which includes the Cameron Village, Chinquapin Park, Lake Walker, Mid-Govans, Belvedere, and Evesham Park neighborhoods. Any child living or moving into the neighborhood may enroll at any time, without participating in a lottery. If you live in this zone, call or email the school to enroll.

If you live out of the zone, you can still apply to enroll your child at Govans. If there are no vacancies at the time, students can be added to a waitlist or upcoming lottery.

Charter Status

BCP converted Govans into a charter school in 2015 and the Baltimore City School Board of Commissioners renewed their charter in 2019. Govans is in the last year of our current 5-year contract term with Baltimore City Schools. In January 2025, the Baltimore City School Board of Commissioners will vote on a new contract renewal term for BCP to operate Govans.

Whatโ€™s after Govans?

Middle and high schools are not zoned by home address like elementary schools are in Baltimore City, therefore students will go through the Middle School Choice process in January of their fifth grade year. Middle school options that are still in the 21212 zip code include Roland Park Elementary/Middle, Leith Walk Elementary/Middle, and Walter P. Carter Elementary/Middle. The school choice liaison at Govans will help guide families through this process.
