Education is the cornerstone of healthy communities, and Phylicia Porter is committed to ensuring Baltimore’s schools are fully supported.

She champions the community schools model, which transforms schools into hubs of programming, resources, and partnership beyond the classroom.

She advocates tirelessly for full and fair funding—working with city leaders, the state delegation, and the General Assembly to secure resources for classrooms, supplies, and student support services. Phylicia also calls on Baltimore City to increase its own funding share, reinforcing the city’s responsibility to its students.
