Archbishop Borders School, a Catholic school at 3500 Foster Avenue that teaches pre-k through 8th grade, offers a unique duallanguage program which teaches Spanish and English side-by-side. “As this community has changed over the years, with the very transient immigrant community, the school became more and more Latino,” said Alicia Amaral Freeman, the principal of Archbishop Borders. Freeman said that her predecessor, Cathy Marshall, noticed that children were losing their ability to understand Spanish as they progressed through the grades. Freeman saw this too while teaching at Hampstead Hill Academy. With this knowledge, six years ago the school decided to embrace a program out of Boston College called TWINS (Two-Way Immersion Network: Catholic Schools). CONTINUED ON PAGE 14

Expansion planned for Merritt Athletic Club in Canton by GIANNA DECARLO EDITOR@BALTIMOREGUIDE.COM

Merritt Athletic Club at 3401 Boston St. will begin a 60 million dollar expansion by the end of the year. Over 10,000 square feet will be added to the 50,000 square foot area with the addition of seven-story parking garage on the back portion of the gym. The parking lot will have approximately 300 spaces and will have direct access to the gym. Additional space will be used for fitnessbased activities. There will be an indoor pool on the top floor and a sky bar for gym members on top of the newly built garage. The gym currently has an indooroutdoor pool on the premises that will be closed. The plan was approved two weeks ago by the Urban Design and Architecture Review Panel. “I think parking is what’s going to be the biggest benefit. In the city, parking is a premium. Parking’s been made easier and

now we’ll have the garages that will really help our current customers and bring new customers in, too. Hopefully, more people will be coming in so we need space for them,” said Donyel Cerceo, the marketing director for Merritt Athletics. Cerceo said the expansion is expected to be completed in about a year. The gym will remain open through the construction. “We want it be accessible and welcoming and to take advantage of the space we have to make it a better experience for everybody,” said Cerceo. Following phase one of the renovation, the developers have plans to add 13 stories of office buildings with first-floor space for retail and a six-story garage. They will bring the plan to UDARP for separate approval. “Timing for the office building will depend upon market conditions once Phase I is complete,” states Merritt Properties.

The cannons help preserve the history of the park which many current residents would never believe was the sight of an international battle. The restorations, which were done by the Windsor company Cannons Online, Inc., gave the cannons a bit of a facelift, but many of the original dents and damage from the cannon’s century-long history were preserved. The celebration also includes a tour of the Pagoda. The tour will touch on the park’s other history, like answering why there’s a Chinese pagoda in the park, how Butchers Hill got its name, and Baltimore’s involvement in the war. In the spring of 2014, during the 200th anniversary celebration of the War of 1812, there was an archeological dig at the park to find historical objects. Thousands of volunteers came out to assist over the monthlong dig. The dig was successful, uncovering everything from musket balls, to belts of the Union soldiers, and gunflint. They also discovered earthworks, artificial changes in land level, which made up the army’s trenches. There will be display cases documenting these items and their significance in the Pagoda. The event is free from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. The Pagoda tour is at 1:30 p.m. For more information on the event and the cannons, visit www. baltimoreheritage.org.

For years the cannons were thought to be decorative reproductions. However, they were proven to be the real deal…

“

After over a year of restorations, the cannons were returned to Patterson Park.

The seven cannons at Patterson Park have represented a pivotal part of Baltimore History. After over a year of renovations, they returned to the park last month. The Friends of Patterson Park are celebrating with a rededication ceremony on September 13. In April of last year, the cannons were removed for renovations. Rust was starting to develop underneath the paint. The restorations included a protective coating that will reduce the number of acids and chemicals that come in contact with the cannons. They were also placed on new, sturdier, stands. This was all possible due to $100,000 from the StarSpangled 200 Grant Program. For years, the cannons were thought to be decorative reproductions. However, they were proven to be the real deal during the upgrades, which shocked the Friends of Patterson Park. The cannons were placed on the western side of the park in 1914 in honor of the 100th anniversary of the War of 1814. The battle took place on September 12-15 that year at the Patterson Park area which was then known as Hampstead Hill. As British forces invaded Baltimore during their trek to Washington D.C., over 10,000 troops and 100 cannons defended the city. This unexpected victory likely changed the direction of the entire war and guaranteed America’s success. The cannons, however, predate the war by hundreds of years. Some were created in the 17th and 18th centuries.

Final Baltimore Detention Center inmates moved

Last month, Governor Larry Hogan announced that the Baltimore City Detention Center at 401 E. Eager Street was to be immediately closed. Last week, the last of the remaining prisoners were removed from the jail. “The final closure of this detention center removes a stain on the reputation of our state and Maryland’s correctional system. For years, corruption, criminal activity, and deplorable conditions have plagued this facility, but that ends today,” said Hogan. The jail has been criticized for it’s decrepit and worn down state. The center dates back to the Civil War. “The Baltimore City Detention Center is a disgrace, and its conditions are horrendous. Ignoring it was irresponsible and one of the biggest failures of leadership in the history of the state of Maryland,” said Hogan. The jail was taken over by the state in 1991. For decades, the jail has faced lawsuit after lawsuit over it’s unstable and crumbling structure and lack of acceptable medical care for the inmates. Reportedly, the detention center is infested with rats and leaky pipes. Allegedly, the jail was taken over by the Black Guerilla Family gang and in 2013 over 40 of inmates and workers were indicted for their involvement. Prisoners were reported to have had sexual relationships with jail officers along with establishing a drug trade. “Inmates were literally running this prison. Maryland taxpayers were unwittingly underwriting a massive criminal enterprise,” said Hogan. On Thursday, August 27, the jail’s doors were open for public viewing. Many were shocked with what was inside and said it emphasized the need for change. Hogan said the closing of the facility will

save taxpayers $10 million a year. Though he didn’t consult Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake before the announcement, the mayor issued a statement of support. “The Mayor has long had concerns about the condition of this facility. She looks forward to hearing more details from Governor Hogan’s administration about its plans,” stated the press release from her administration. The closure has been applauded and supported, but it was not without its road bumps. On Monday, August 31, eight correctional officers and six prisoners were injured during a fight at a detaining facility that absorbed some of the Baltimore City Detention Center’s former detainees. The scuffle broke out at the Baltimore PreTrial Complex after a group of detainees attacked an officer before barricading themselves in their dorms. All of the injured parties were treated and released. Later in the day officers in tactical gear removed the detainees responsible for the attack from the facility. There have also been reports that the prisoner relocation has made it difficult for lawyers to contact their clients. Allegedly, the already difficult process of scheduling client meetings was exacerbated due to the move. It’s reportedly been difficult to find out where the client has been moved. Stephen Moyer, the state’s corrections secretary, said they will work to bridge these gaps in communication and make the process run more smoothly. Despite the hiccups, many prisoners have expressed joy over leaving the decrepit Baltimore Detention Center. The jail is expected to be demolished. It is currently unknown what will be built in its place.

Fund-raising will benefit the Johns Hopkins Burn Center Community Outreach and Education Programs.

Baltimore Seafood Festival makes a splash Be prepared to dive into the best seafood the city has to offer at the Baltimore Seafood Festival on Saturday, September 19. The event at the Canton Waterfront will bring together over a dozen restaurants which will serve small plates with, of course, seafood as the centerpiece. “I really wanted the best of the best,” said Beth Merchant, the event’s organizer. “It’s not all seafood restaurants that are involved. The menu is very diverse. It’s like everything you could possibly think of.” Merchant wanted to do small plates because she’s been to many food events where you had to choose one dish and miss out on all the other options. Participating restaurants include Mare Nostrum with a shrimp and jalapeno ceviche and grilled octopus, Atwater’s with a crab corn chowder, Heavy Seas Alehouse with seafood mac and cheese and fresh shucked oysters, and many, many more. Each small plate will be between $1 and $7. To wash down these fin-tastic treats, there will be four beer stations, six wine stations, and four cocktail stations with signature creations like a blueberry lemonade with Cruzan rum. Live music will be provided by 8 Ohms Band and Unity Reggae Band. Local vendors and artists will also be there, selling everything from jewelry to alpaca wool sweaters. If you’re interested in creating these dishes at home, the festival will host live cooking demonstrations. For example Ryleigh’s Oyster House chef, Shawn McClure will teach you

how to prepare sautéed Old Bay butter and Natty Boh oysters with parmesan cheese. CharmTV chef Adrienne Hammel will demonstrate how to cook beer battered shrimp with a variety of dipping sauces. The event is already attracting the attention from those out-of-state. Merchant said she knows people from New Jersey, Philadelphia, and even Italy that are coming. “I did it last year and went into it sort of blindly and I didn’t know it was going to be so big,” said Merchant. She said that last year’s inaugural festival was attended by over 4000 people. With a predicted 6000 attendants., she believes this year’s event will be even bigger. Merchant said that the majority of restaurants who participated last year have come back for this year’s festival. The restaurants pay a participation fee, but other than that, they keep 100% of their profits from the day. Merchant said it also acts as good exposure, allowing them to reach people from all over the city. “Baltimoreans are so proud of their crab cakes, crab soup, shrimp salad, local oysters, and of course, Maryland blue crabs. It seems fitting to host a waterfront festival showcasing some of Baltimore’s favorite restaurants serving their signature seafood dishes,” states the event’s website. Merchant said we’re lucky to live in a city with such a variety of fresh and readily available seafood and chefs that can really utilize them in their dishes.

Our diversity in seafood is only matched by our diversity in people. Merchant said that as an event organizer, she looks to create events that can be enjoyed by everyone. “What I love about Baltimore is how truly diverse it is. So I tried to make the event affordable for everybody, whether you’re making minimum wage or living at a house on the Canton waterfront. You’ll have some traditional items and some more upscale, foodie-type items. Everything I do is geared toward young professionals and people with families.” Merchant said she wants to show these families that there’s fun downtown even after your younger bar days are over. “Baltimore gets so beat up in the media and what not and we’re constantly fighting against this negative perception. It’s nice to do an event where people from outside the state can come in and see what’s its like to live in Baltimore and what we can offer. The Baltimore Seafood Festival will run from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. and Merchant said all the restaurants will be there the entire time. “I made sure that they all prepared enough food for everybody for the whole day,” she said with a laugh.

PATTERSON PARK

In 1950 Patterson Park was just as popular a site for local football leagues and rec clubs as it is today. Above, Don Benzing led the Red Shield Boys’ Club to victory over the Eastrern District Police Boys’ Club. | Photos by Tom Scilipoti

om Scilipoti has photographed the Southeast community for the Baltimore Guide for over six decades. In his photography, he has captured the people, neighborhoods, landscapes and businesses of the constantly expanding and changing city we call ‘home’. Tom’s first picture for the Guide, a benefit in Little Italy for the Italian Boys Town, ran on December 14, 1950. Over the next 65 years Tom continued to contribute photos documenting the city with the same passion and enthusiasm as he had in the 50s. He has shot everyone from John F. Kennedy speaking at Patterson Park to longshoremen working on tugboats, to boxer Rocky Marciano in Little Italy after a fight. Tom was born and raised in Little Italy and now lives in upper Fell’s Point. Receiving his first camera from his parents at age 17, Tom has honed his skills in both film and digital photography. Through his black and white images, we can see the neighborhoods as they once were and compare them to the way they are now. We can appreciate how far we’ve come as well as the past that laid the foundation for our city. The Guide thanks him for his contributions.

In the program, children are given a day of classes completely in Spanish, followed by a day in only English. On Fridays, the days are 50% English and 50% Spanish. The children, ideally, start this curriculum in pre-k and continue through 8th grade. “The kids love it and the parents are so supportive. The word is getting out and we’re seeing that people are starting to see the value in this,” said Freeman. There are currently 190 students, 51 of which are new this year. Freeman said that the majority of them are from the Southeast, but some commute from as far as Bel Air and Annapolis just for the dual-language program. For example, in one classroom a group of kindergartners had a “Spanish Day”. They were learning about the months and days of the week, singing along to a song with a teacher who is a native Spanish speaker. The goal is complete immersion, said Patrick Gutierrez who is the school’s director of advancement. He said teachers use hand gestures to help guide the children into understanding the lessons. But, he stressed, that if it’s a Spanish day, the teacher will never utter a word of English throughout the entire year. He believes this will allow the children to become more fluent with a comprehensive knowledge of how to properly use the language. “We don’t teach Spanish, we teach school in Spanish. That’s what gonna help them not only to speak it, but read and write it and use it in the world. They’re going to be able to move on and utilize the language in the most ways possible,” said Gutierrez. Along with the dual-language, the students are encouraged to immerse themselves in the learning essentials that act as building blocks for their continued education. Gutierrez said the newly renovated Reading Room and a reading coordinator encourage the children to develop language arts skills. The development of these skills, said Guiterrez, is more important than test performance at Archbishop Border. “We don’t teach for the test. We do one test a year. The rest of the time we’re doing more holistic education, well-rounded, mind, body and spirit. So when you look at things like language arts and how important that is as a foundation, those are the things we want to emphasize rather than just shoving facts in your brain that you can answer on a test and then forget when you leave.” Archbishop Borders is often in the shadows of the towering buildings surrounding it, making it a bit cloistered away. But they are adding a playground, which the school never had before. Freeman hopes this will open them

up to their neighbors. “This is kind of a walled community and it’s fortunate and unfortunate. It’s fortunate because it provides a private, safe, space and it’s unfortunate because it kind of closes us off from the community. So the idea is for this to act as a community playground,” she said. There are also plans to use the space for an outdoor science class and to build a greenhouse on the premises. The playground was possible due to support from surrounding community organizations, like the Women’s Educational Organization. The renovations were part of a 3-stage plan that would begin in 2012 until the end of the 2015. The classrooms were expanded and windows were added to bring in natural light. Other upgrades include a spacious gym and staging area. Gutierrez said the Creative Alliance often hosts events there for the students, such as a steel drum performance and a lesson on the history of hip-hop during for Black History Month. Also, the school received new technology, including a 3D printer that the children will be able to use. And, there will be after-school art enrichment programs and music lessons from a newly hired music teacher. Gutierrez hopes this will help convince families who have been hesitant to use a private school to give them a shot. “We’re putting a lot of effort into being rebranded as a community school. A lot of families yearn for a community school, but they instantly a cross private school off the list because they think neighborhood school means public school. But for us, a neighborhood school just means they’re a part of the community and involved in it,” he said. He stated that the price point of Archbishop Borders is significantly lower than traditional private schools and the children receive more comprehensive and focused education. “People realize the value of giving their children a second language early on and that’s what we provide to the best of our ability,” Gutierrez said. For more information of the schools and its programs, visit www.abbschool.com.

BIRDS HOUSE

Owner/Broker 443-690-0552

Back to school With the Labor Day weekend now behind us, one can only reminisce about their summer memories as autumn approaches: Your vacation down in Ocean City; that Orioles game you caught where they actually won; the time you got kicked out of Max’s Taphouse because you couldn’t decide on a beer because their tap list gave you way too many options. While you recall the great memories of the summer, for many Americans Labor Day means back to school. While the 2015 Baltimore Orioles can’t teach us much in the ways of winning lately, they can certainly still teach us a bit. Here would be a potential student’s class schedule for 2015. History – On September 6, 1995, almost exactly twenty years ago, the baseball world witnessed history as Cal Ripken, Jr. broke Lou Gehrig’s record for consecutive games played with 2,131. Also, with the Pope’s visit to Philadelphia, PA coming up, Pope John Paul II celebrated Mass at Camden Yards on October 8th, 1995. Business – Pop Quiz: If Chris Davis made $12 million in 2015, how much will he make with the Orioles in 2016? Answer: Zero dollars, because Peter Angelos is the owner and won’t spend money on retaining talent. I can see Davis making around $16-$17 million a year for perhaps three to four years. I think that’s worth it for a guy who has hit 119 HR over the past three seasons (one of which was a down year). Why do I think Angelos will not shell out money to keep quality players in Baltimore? When Peter Angelos bought the team in 1993, he paid $173 million for the Orioles. Their payroll in 1994 was just under $39 million. According to Forbes, the Orioles are now worth $1 billion and their payroll this year was $115 million per ESPN. If you do the math on that one, the Orioles’ value has increased about 578% but their payroll has increased by only 294%. Poetry – A Haiku is a Japanese poem that has three lines with the first consisting of five syllables, the second consisting of seven syllables and the third and final line consisting of five syllables. Here is my attempt at a Haiku for the 2015 Baltimore Orioles: The O’s love their home But they can’t win on the road

Time for the Ravens Lunch – Crab cakes, obviously. Geography – The Baltimore Orioles have had players from eight different countries take the field for them this year. Those countries include the United States, Venezuela, Dominican Republic, Taiwan, Mexico, Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Nicaragua. Statistics – Perhaps you know this, but perhaps not, but I will explain how you figure out ERA. ERA is Earned Run Average, a stat for pitchers to estimate how many earned runs they would surrender per nine innings. It might be a little easier to gauge for starters as they pitch more innings than a reliever, but here is how one would figure that statistic out: (Earned Runs * 9)/(Innings Pitched) = ERA. So, as a live example, let’s use Darren O’Day. O’Day has given up 10 earned runs this year and has pitched 52 2/3 innings, so his formula would look like this: (10 * 9)/52.667 which would give you an ERA of 1.71 (which is amazing by the way). Psychology – Playing professional baseball is tough, I’m sure. Being mentally tough is certainly helpful, and some players are stronger in that department than others. WeiYin Chen is one of those players. When pitching against teams with a .500 record or better, Chen is 3-3 with an impressive 2.82 ERA. What is also impressive is how he dials in as his pitch count rises. Normally pitchers get tired as their pitch count increases, but Chen seems to keep it together. From pitches 76 – 100, hitters bat only .217 against him, and from pitches 101 and up, Chen hasn’t given up a hit in 17 at-bats. Sometimes guys that are mentally tough can just push through. Physics – On Sunday the Chicago Cubs’ rookie third baseman Kris Bryant hit an absolute monster homeruns, traveling 495 feet, the longest of the season according to MLB.com’s Statcast. What you might not guess at all is that Baltimore’s second baseman Jonathan Schoop has the now third longest homerun of the season, which went a ridiculous 484 feet on August 26th off Kansas City’s Johnny Cueto. To reach that distance, Schoop put a hurting on the ball with a launch speed of 110.1 MPH at an angle of 31.3 degrees and reached a height of 128.6 feet.
