| Charter Renewal Thursday, February 25, 2010 Dear Parents and Guardians, On Tuesday, the Massachusetts Board of Education voted to renew LCCPS's Charter for another five years on a probationary basis. There are a number of conditions that will need to be met, so that LCCPS can continue to stay open for the next five years. The first condition is a decrease in enrollment. The Board of Education has determined that LCCPS needs to become a smaller school so that it can better serve its students. The decision has been made that over the next two years LCCPS must change from a school serving grades Kindergarten to Grade 8 to a school that serves Kindergarten to Grade 4. The decision of how and when these changes will occur has not been made yet, but it is expected that there will be a plan in place by the middle of March. We will inform you when that happens. The second condition that needs to be met involves the achievement of students. LCCPS needs to do a better job of educating its students. We know that our students are capable of doing well on MCAS. We need to prove to the State that they can. In the coming months and years we hope that you will continue to support and assist us in educating your children. There are other conditions that need to be met involving the leadership and governance of the school. Many of those changes are already in progress. Meeting the conditions set forth by the Board of Education is extremely important. If LCCPS fails to meet these conditions, there is the possibility that the school will be forced to close. I am confident, however, that we will succeed. I am happy that LCCPS will continue to provide a valuable service to this community. I thank you for all of the support and dedication you have shown over these past months and for your continued trust in LCCPS to provide for your child's education. Allen Scheier Interim Director LCCPS |
