Message from the Head of School
This year we celebrate our 20th anniversary, and this forces me to acknowledge that I’ve been doing this charter school thing for a long time. Since our opening in 1995, I have witnessed more than 60 Public Exhibitions of Student Work at MCCPS (3 each year, except for year 1 when we did 5!). Fortunately, Exhibition never gets old. When the kids get excited about their learning, it’s infectious, and I can’t help but feel excited, too. Please know that they are soooo looking forward to sharing what they have learned with you, so I encourage you to interact with students at all grade levels. I’m sure that you will be pleased and impressed.
Since our opening in 1995, MCCPS has demonstrated that Public Exhibitions of Student Work bring a relevance to the children’s schooling that cannot be achieved in a traditional classroom setting. The performance assessments that will be presented to you this evening demonstrate a deep and enduring understanding of content and skills that will long outlive the scores on an MCAS or the grades on a report card. In doing these projects, the children have collaborated, negotiated, advocated for their point of view, and compromised when necessary. They have employed the essential habits of perseverance, leadership, initiative, and problem-solving. They have grown in their ability to become capable, self-determining, fully-engaged individuals who are critical and creative thinkers committed to achieving their highest intellectual, artistic, social, emotional, and physical potential, and I am VERY proud of all of them.
Message from the Head of School
As you experience Exhibition tonight, please note that all of the projects are grounded in the state’s curriculum frameworks/common core. In each classroom you’ll see ‘The Anatomy of an Exhibition on display. This will help you to better understand all that goes into each performance assessment. Of course, academic rigor is expected for all, and the four performance levels are described on the rubrics. As we celebrate tonight’s Exhibition, the faculty, staff, administration, and I can state with certainty that we remain convinced that these public events continue to be very effective methods of inspiring high levels of growth and achievement.
It’s impossible to see everything on the night of Exhibition, so if you’re able, please come back tomorrow morning for Exhibition part 2. From 8:45-12:00, we’ll do it all again, so that the children will experience the power of what they have achieved.
Thank you for supporting our important work. I hope that you will enjoy the night.
Sincerely, Nina Cullen-Hamzeh, M.Ed. Head of School

Dear MCCPS Families and Community,
On behalf of the MCCPS Board, welcome to the first Exhibition of the 2015 – 2016 academic year. We are thrilled to join you to celebrate the children’s accomplishments.
Never before has MCCPS been poised to offer a more robust learning experience for our students with the newly purchased building and a new fundraising professional at the helm. This is an exciting time.
At MCCPS we believe in instilling confidence and as our mission states, we empower children to become capable, self-determining, fully engaged individuals who are critical and creative thinkers committed achieving their highest intellectual, artistic, social, emotional, and physical potential.
The beauty of Exhibition is that students are inspired to work collaboratively to research a theme or topic that they select, create a project and a story around the discovery of new concepts, and express those concepts in a creative and original fashion. All of you know how wonderful it is to see their creative young minds chart their path through what is quite a daunting task. Tonight is the culmination of this journey as we see their cheerful and confident faces sharing the narrative of those discoveries.
We share your pride on this special evening, and we hope to see you at a future Board meeting. Please let me know if you would be interested in hearing about the MCCPS Board’s objectives and goals.
Sincerely,
Katie Hope
MCCPS Board Chair
Message from the MCCPS Board
MCCPS has changed my daughter’s life. She is finally excited about learning and going to school each day.
I don’t know who gets more excited for Exhibition in our house, the parents or the kids. As the night approaches, our girls are a little anxious with anticipation - a dose of adrenaline that proves they are moved by the experience.
The opening ceremonies feel like the Olympics to us, bringing the entire school community together to celebrate the culmination of learning that term. Music, singing, dancing, and the greatest memory I have, our fourth graders signing an entire song can bring tears to my eyes every time.
I cannot imagine a better way for students to learn. Exhibition provides them with a great goal. It supports them by showing them that their community is interested in what they are doing at school. It transforms classroom study into something real, alive, and exciting. It encourages teamwork and competition to bring out the best in our students. It gives them a forum to practice public speaking. It lets them shine. It gives us all a night full of pride. What better way is there to motivate and validate our students (and teachers!) efforts?
I particularly appreciate the fact that the students’ projects use the state standards in an innovative and creative fashion. Each grade’s projects illustrate the importance of global responsibility and create pride in the students’ sense of place in society. I am impressed with the students’ work. Their success embodies the charter school’s mission.
The Exhibition was an incredible experience for us and most of all for our daughter. I’ve never seen her so earnest. I think the most notable aspect of it is how the whole experience enhances self confidence and self pride. I very much like the idea of integrating what they are learning in all subjects and pulling them together into a tangible and communicable body of work.
All of the students we spoke with were not just willing to answer questions, but clearly wanted to engage. That was most telling about the school, as I believe the desire to learn is the most effective tool of learning.
My husband and I are very proud of our son and the school in general. We have never seen him be so comfortable making a presentation or interacting with a great number of people. The school worked magic on our boy.

4th GradeAnimal Wildlife DocumentariesFourth grade animal experts have created wildlife documentaries that describe an animal and explain how it has adapted to survive in its ecosystem. Students used research and their own media to inform and engage the audience. In order to understand the significance of the animal and how it fits in as a community member or individual in its ecosystem, students explored its habitat, how the animal is classified, how long it lives in the wild, what it eats, and how it has adapted to its environment. In art class, students created a “Pop Art” portrait of their animal. They used a grid to accurately enlarge the face of their animal, and used cool and warm watercolors schemes to create contrast and harmony.
Collecting Tabs “Kids Helping Kids”The tabs project, Kids Helping Kids, involved more than gathering aluminum tabs. Each student collected, counted, and recorded their data on a tally sheet. In small groups, the students created a poster to display a bar graph of the data landmarks and other mathematical computations. Written reflections of this project rounded out the experience of contributing to the Shriners’ community and their patients.
Digging into the Past ~ Early Humans to Ancient MesopotamiaStudent paleoanthropologists and archaeologists have made discoveries about our ancient past through their research of early humans and the ancient civilization of Mesopotamia. The students have uncovered how the great apes evolved into homo sapiens by learning about the physical changes found in fossilized bones and the evidence of stone tools. The students are well versed in how the first cities developed within the “land between the rivers” and the artifacts that provide clues into this ancient world. The students’ informational essays provide a glimpse into the past while contemplating how history has left its mark on life as we know it today. The students’ artwork depicts replicas of the paleolithic cave paintings dating back to 17,000 BCE found in Lascaux, France.

6th GradeChanges Over Time: A Gallery of Science ExhibitsThe students have created a museum-style exhibit consisting of several projects that were completed over the course of the term. The first project is “Cells without a Microscope” - a project where students compared cells to everyday objects. The second project is “Proving Evolution” - a presentation on the evolutionary history of an animal of their choice. The third project was “Earth’s History” - a scale representation of the Geologic Time Scale.
Native American Powwow: A Cultural CrossroadsThe students have synthesized their understanding of Native American cultures with their narrative writing skills to construct a historical fiction narrative set in Pre-Colonial North America. Assuming the identity of a fictional member of an actual tribe, the students have described their daily life and interwoven the retelling of the story of their initial interactions with European explorers or settlers. In order to further demonstrate their depth of knowledge, the students had a choice between creating an informational pamphlet (printed from a digital slide show), depicting various aspects of tribal life, or creating artifacts relevant to their chosen tribe. Finally, students created an artistic representation of historically accurate clothing that corresponds with their chosen tribe.
The students learned to sing four Native American songs.Inspired by Cochiti Pueblo Indian Helen Cordero, the students created clay Storytellers. Remembering how her grandfather passed on the Pueblo Indian traditions, stories, and legends to her and her siblings as a child, Helen Cordero created her first clay Storyteller doll in 1964. Pueblo Indian clay Storytellers are now a popular item among art collectors and tourists alike.
6th Grade The students have been studying illnesses and injuries in foreign language class. They have also been studying how to give commands in French or Spanish. They have created a comic strip using illness, injury, body part and symptom-related vocabulary in the target language.
