BALTIMORE — One sign of an exceptional school principal is knowing the name of every student. Mark Bongiovanni, or Mr. B as the kids call him, can fire off each student's name at Curtis Bay Elementary School in South Baltimore as he greets them in the morning. He's been the principal at Curtis Bay for five years and says he is ecstatic to have the kids back in the building. He says they had no idea what was in store for them when schools first closed at the start of the pandemic in March of 2020. "When we were first closed we thought it was going to be for a couple weeks, and there was even some celebrations like ‘oh we got two weeks!’ But when we realized it was going to be longer we said wow, we really gotta find a way to make sure our kids are keeping up through distance learning."
