The Baltimore City School Board of Commissioners approved the closures of seven schools Tuesday night; effectively completed the closing of another campus after relocating one high school program; and as expected, deferred the closure of two more schools.

The board also approved new governing boards for Frederick Douglass, Patterson and Northwestern high schools. At Douglass, Johns Hopkins University will manage the high school within the city school system, similar to the smaller Talent Development High School model run by Hopkins.
