School Safety Student Art Showcase MCSS engages students in school safety through art with its annual MCSS Art Showcase. Students were asked to create an 8.5 x 11-inch piece of art in response to the 2024 theme “Safe Spaces.” Entries were received from public, nonpublic, private, and home-school students across the state. All entries were displayed for judging at the PRE PARE conference. First, second, and third-place winners were selected by grade group (elementary, middle, high). Winning jurisdictions included Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Baltimore City, Howard, and Wicomico. All submitted artwork was on display in September and part of October at the Maryland State Department of Education in Baltimore and will be on display starting mid- December, through the legislative session at the House of Delegates office in Annapolis.
