Elmwood Elementary is
located in the Northeast Area of Baltimore County, Maryland.
With students numbering around 500, our school reflects a culturally diverse
population.
Last year, Elmwood celebrated its 50th anniversary. We were happy to welcome back alumni, faculty, and friends from the past. |

The proposed Kindergarten through sixth grade school was designed to alleviate overcrowding in the Fullerton area. Groundbreaking on the 57 acres occurred in December 1956. |

Elmwood Elementary (faculty and students) began to function in 1957 as a separate unit at Fullerton Elementary School as the building had not been completed. Students attended each afternoon as the students of Fullerton went to school in the morning. |
