Link to Superintendent Grasmick's Biography
Welcome to MSDE

For the second straight year, Maryland’s public education system received number rankings in 2010 from Education Week; the College Board for Advanced Placement performance; and, once again, Newsweek for the highest percentage of rigorous high schools in America. We should all be truly proud for these consistent and remarkable accomplishments.
--Nancy S. Grasmick, State Superintendent of Schools
