Updates from our
Head of School
Hello Marblehead Community Charter Families,

We are so excited to welcome 230 students back to school on Monday August 30. We have spent the summer getting ready for the return of full time, in-person learning for all. With continued upgrades to HVAC systems, air purifiers in every classroom, landscaping around the school, the construction of new office spaces, along with fresh paint... we are ready to shine!

On the first day of school we will start at 7:45am outside on the field. Students will gather by grade level and meet up with their classmates and teachers. Parents are welcome to join us. The PTO will host a breakfast beginning at 7:45am outside, in our backlot. See our recent email about drop-off and pick-up procedures.

While we will all be wearing masks while indoors to start the year, we are in a much better place than we were a year ago. We continue to be hopeful that everyone who is eligible to be vaccinated will be vaccinated, so we can move past this pandemic. Until then, we do have COVID-19 protocols in place to ensure a healthy and safe learning environment for all. Please reference the recent email we shared about our health protocols. If your child is feeling sick, please keep them home.

The theme of this year is new beginnings and a fresh start. We will return to beginning each school day with a community meeting in the community room. We will have performances, guest speakers, fun activities, and share announcements during this time. If you would like to visit the school for a Community Meeting, please give us advanced notice of at least 24 hours, as the number of visitors will be limited. This is the same for lunch. You are welcome to join us for lunch periodically, but we will require advanced notice to confirm that there is space.

Each Thursday, we will send out a newsletter, similar to this one. We will highlight upcoming events and keep everyone informed about the wonderful things happening at our school. We will also use social media to give you a window into our school. Please continue to like and share our Facebook and Instagram posts.

I look forward to meeting you all and continue to strengthen our relationships and our community. Our students benefit most when there are open lines of communication between school and home, so that we are all working together to ensure each individual student's success. When possible we will be setting up times for you to meet us and learn more about our school. We will finalize dates and determine soon if these meetings can be in person or need to be virtual.

We are all looking forward to an amazing year. Welcome to MCCPS!

Peter Cohen, Ed.D
