Dear Cambridge Public School Community,
I am writing today with an important update that
the last day of school for CPS students will be Wednesday, June 17. Today, we received confirmation from the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education that our school calendar’s original end date before the emergency closures would be acknowledged and accepted. After the last day of school for students, educators will be engaging in professional development and planning for the upcoming school year.
We know there are many questions about what next fall will bring and what school will look like for our students. Please know that we are planning for different scenarios, with the health and safety of students and staff as our highest priority. We will continue to keep you informed over the coming weeks as we develop and refine these plans based on updated information from state education and health officials.
Thank you for your ongoing support, and continue to stay safe and be well.
Sincerely,
Kenneth N. Salim, Ed.D.
Superintendent
