Updates from our

Head of School

Hello Marblehead Community Charter Families,

Happy Winter! My favorite thing about the first day of winter is that now the days will slowly start getting longer and more daylight is good for all. We hope that everyone enjoys the December Vacation week. There is no school on Friday December 23. We return to school on Tuesday January 3.

Please use the COVID at-home tests we distributed before the Thanksgiving break. Please test students on January 2nd or 3rd before they return to school. Please test again on January 5. This is one step we can all take to minimize the spread of COIVD following all of the holiday gatherings. The flu/cold season is here. Please send students to school with a mask when they have any cold symptoms and keep students home as needed for illness.

Looking way ahead, the master calendar for the 2023-2024 school year has been approved by the Board of Trustees. It is included in this newsletter. You can click the image to download your copy. We will share the calendar again in the spring and over the summer.

MCCPS once again was the leading school group fundraiser in support of My Brother's Table. There are many ways to support this wonderful organization that helps address the food insecurity issue in our region. Consider helping them out this holiday season and in 2023. https://mybrotherstable.org/get-involved

Please remember that pajamas are not appropriate attire for school. In the new year, students arriving to school in pajamas will be asked to call home to get a change of clothes. We want everyone to dress for success.

We wish everyone a happy and healthy holiday season and a happy new year.

Peter Cohen, Ed.D

Head of School
