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

This week at MCCPS is Exhibition Prep Week. All of our students are busy preparing for Exhibition, our showcase of student learning that will take place on Monday evening, November 22. Please review your assigned time for Exhibition below. In order to keep everyone moving and maintain lower numbers in the school, please only come for your designated time and prepare to be here for approximately 45 minutes. This allows us time to transition one group out and make room for parking and in the hallways for the next group to view the projects.
The entire 4th grade will be singing in the gym at 5:45pm until 6:00pm, so parents of 4th graders in 4 Blue should plan to stay until 6 and parents of 4th grades in 4 Gold should plan to arrive in time for the 5:45 performance. We will have a larger music concert experience (MCCPS Music Extravaganza) for the whole school in January.

While you are here on Monday evening, please view your child's projects and other projects in the classrooms you are in. You can review the schedule below and pop into the other classrooms that are presenting during your assigned time, as time permits, but please do not stay beyond your designated times to help us with traffic flow in and out of the school.

We have opened up the application for enrollment for the 2022-2023 school year. This is for new applications to enter the enrollment lottery. It is an online application. Thank you to everyone that is spreading the word, sharing our Facebook posts, and posting yard signs. Please note that if your child is currently enrolled, you do not need to apply again for next year. Your spot is reserved. Early in 2022, we will ask you to indicate your intent to return for next year, so that we can have an indication of how many spots will be available for new students. We do hope that every student that enrolls with us will stay for the full, five year experience at MCCPS.

Our maximum enrollment is 230 students. We currently have 227 students with space available in grades 4, 6, and 8. With trimester two beginning on November 30, this is the perfect time to join our school at those grade levels. Please contact our admissions coordinator with questions.

We are excited about the gradual expansion of enrichment offerings for trimester two, as we phase the enrichment program back in for this year. Please be sure your child completes the online enrichment preference form by Friday. Students have access to the link in Schoology and a packet of course descriptions was shared with them in Advisory and with you via email.

See you Monday night and Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Peter Cohen, Ed.D

COVID19 Vaccine Info

Please complete the form if your child has already been vaccinated

Here is the information about the COVID19 vaccine. We encourage you to have your child vaccinated to protect themselves, your family, and our school community. Please speak to your child’s doctor about their plans to administer the vaccine and get any questions you may have answered. The vaccine is our pathway to a post-pandemic world.

If you and your child's doctor decide to have your child vaccinated against COVID-19, please let Nurse D know by filling out the Student COVID Vaccine Report Form once your child has received all recommended doses of the COVID vaccine. This data will be used to determine when/if we have 80% of our community fully vaccinated to allow us to reevaluate our current COVID policies and protocols. Please feel free to contact Nurse D if you have any questions or concerns.
