Bluford Drew Jemison STEM Academy West, is an all-boy public middle/high school located in Baltimore, Maryland, United States. The school's focus is on Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education.[1]

History

The school was an extension of the Bluford Drew Jemison Math Science Technology Academy initially opened in 2007 as a charter middle school, and named for African-Americans who had found success in STEM fields: Guion S. Bluford and Mae Jemison, and Charles R. Drew.[2] This original school was located at 1130 N. Caroline St. in the Gay Street neighborhood of Baltimore.[3] This original BDJ lost its Charter license in 2013 (becoming a traditional school) due to low academic performance and financial issues, before shuttering for good at the end of 2014.[4][5]

Bluford Drew Jemison STEM Academy West was launched as a spin off in 2010.[6] Initially co-located within the Diggs-Johnson Middle School at 1300 Herkimer St, the school moved to the former Walbrook High School at 2000 Edgewood Street in the Fairmont neighborhood in 2010 when Diggs-Johnson was closed to make room for the Southwest Baltimore Charter School.[6] However, by November 2013, the school board had decided to empty the Walbrook campus entirely, and BDJ West was recommended for closure along with its predecessor.[7] Community protests kept it from closure and relocation, but the board did revoke its charter in December of the same year, announcing it would look for a new operator.[8]
