Welcome to Concord Integrated Preschool

Concord Integrated Preschool is designed to foster a love of learning through a positive first school experience for preschool students with disabilities and community peers. We provide the foundation for kindergarten readiness and future academics by encouraging children to become independent, self-confident, and inquisitive learners. Our classes provide an educationally enriched and stimulating environment with developmentally appropriate activities, highly trained staff, and an exceptionally creative curriculum.

The program is available to residents of Concord and children of CPS/CCHS staff.

To learn more or ask about openings, please contact our Early Childhood Coordinator,
Janet O’Shea, at joshea@concordps.org.

Superintendent’s Message

Updates November 28, 2021

November 28, 2021

Dear Families:

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend with family and friends.  I know there was much to be thankful for as we were able to resume even the simplest gathering with grandparents.  We look forward to the coming weeks to wrap up 2021!

In the Spotlight

Fine Arts:  Tonight, I share some of the amazing artwork produced at CCHS with the intent of sharing elementary and middle school work in future emails.  There is no shortage of outstanding pieces!

The CCHS student newspaper, The Voice, recently highlighted sculpture installed in the display room off of the main lobby at CCHS.  Photos are available on The Voice’s website.

Last spring, Principal Mastrullo shared a number of character designs done by CCHS students.  The complete set of work on Principal Mastrullo’s blog is linked here.

Every spring, Concord Art hosts a CCHS student art show which is always extraordinary.  Last year’s show was no expectation as you’ll see in the awards video posted here.

Finally, we are always excited when students take the initiative to beautify our schools with their talent.  The CCHS trainer’s room is a work in progress, thanks to CCHS Senior Mia Comeau.

Snow Days

With the wintry weather upon us, I share an update on the plan for snow days.  The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education is not currently approving remote learning for any purposes except an extraordinary DESE sanctioned school-closure for COVID reasons.  As of right now, we believe that all snow days will be traditional snow days with make-up days in June.  We will let you know if DESE provides additional information.

COVID 

In the last week, we had 9 positive COVID cases for a total of 62 to date this year:

7 Thoreau students

1 Thoreau staff

1 CCHS student

The COVID Dashboard will be updated throughout the week.  The spike at Thoreau is not unexpected, especially until the youngest students are fully vaccinated.  As previously mentioned, the dashboard will serve as our communication tool unless a significant set of circumstances warrants a separate notification.

Have a great start to the week!

Best,

Laurie
