Dear Cohasset School Families:
The Superintendent Search Committee (SSC) is pleased to announce that it will be hosting a series of open discussion forums for families (there are separate forums for staff as well) relative to the superintendent selection process. The first group of family forums will be held in the next two weeks, with the purpose of providing our school families with an opportunity to share perspectives with the SSC as we review applications and conduct semi-finalist interviews (NOTE: semi-finalist interviews, unlike finalist interviews, are held in private session as to protect confidentiality interests of candidates).
The first group of family forums will be held at the following times:
Elementary Family Forum (in-person only): Wednesday, March 6, 6PM-7PM in the Deer Hill Innovation Commons
Secondary Family Forum (in-person only): Wednesday, March 13, 4:30PM-5:30PM in the MS/HS Learning Commons
District-Wide Virtual Family Forum (ZOOM ONLY): Thursday, March 7, 6PM-7PM. A link for this forum will be shared with the district in a separate email.
Once semi-finalist interviews have been completed, and finalist candidates have been identified and announced, there will be a second group of family forums in which families will be able to directly engage the candidates themselves. Information relative to that process will be forthcoming as we progress to that point in the selection process.
We look forward to hearing from your family at one or more of the forums!
Onward and Upward,
Your SSC
Greetings Cohasset Families,
Recently, the CDC dropped the five-day isolation requirement for a positive COVID-19 test. However, in Massachusetts the following school guidance is unchanged and still in effect:
If and when the guidance in Massachusetts changes, we will inform the entire school community.
Sincerely,
Patrick Sullivan, Ed.D.
Superintendent
Cohasset Public Schools
After consulting with safety officials, it has been determined that, due to the heavy snow, high winds, and strong coastal impact forecasted for the upcoming storm, there will be no school or after school sports and activities tomorrow, Tuesday, February 13, 2024. All after-school activities and sports tonight will remain as scheduled. Please stay safe in the storm tomorrow.

From Commissioner of Education Riley’s memo to Superintendents sent on August 15, 2022:
“The Commonwealth is not recommending universal mask requirements, surveillance testing of asymptomatic individuals, contact tracing, or test-to-stay testing in schools. Districts and schools are reminded that there is no longer any statewide masking mandate in schools (other than school health offices) and there is no testing requirement for schools.” We will continue to respect the right of individuals to wear masks at any time during the school day.
“Effective August 15, 2022, all students and staff in childcare, school in grades K-12, or participating in out-of-school time (OST) and recreational camp settings should follow the updated isolation and exposure guidance issued by DPH, in alignment with recently issued guidance from CDC. No asymptomatic person should be excluded from school as a result of exposure, regardless of vaccination status or exposure setting.”
