Calvert School is located in Tuscany-Canterbury, a residential neighborhood in Baltimore City, just north of Johns Hopkins University and south of Loyola University Maryland, accessible from Charles Street and I-83. 

 

Homeroom teachers are responsible for the daily instruction of reading, math, composition, history, geography, and other content areas. The Calvert curriculum cultivates curiosity and challenges all of our students. We believe our unique approach helps create lifelong learners who strive to achieve mastery in all of their academic pursuits. In addition to managing the daily affairs of a homeroom, teachers communicate frequently with parents and collaborate with their grade level team members to develop and teach curriculum that is motivating and age appropriate. Faculty members are expected to contribute to the Calvert community as coaches, club advisors, and will serve on school committees on occasion.
