Dear Mattituck-Cutchogue School Community,
Congratulations, we did it! The students, faculty, staff, families, and this community came together, stayed the course, and persevered through an unusual and challenging year. With our focus always on our students and the safety of all in our community, we were able to adapt, innovate, and support in a way that truly shows what the Mattituck -Cutchogue spirit is all about. I am in awe of what I witnessed here in the past 16 months and will forever be inspired by it. I am humbled and honored to be able to work and lead in such an amazing school system and community.
The administrative team has already begun to plan and prepare for a new beginning as we look to build upon our strong foundation, and harness what we have developed and learned this past year. We will be taking a fresh look at the District’s Mission Statement and using it to help develop and implement all district, building, and department goals and decisions. Our intent is to look forward while also honoring the traditions and values of our schools and community. We are also very excited to be welcoming an unprecedented number of new teachers and administrators this September and we look forward to the knowledge and expertise that they will be bringing to our district.
I hope everyone enjoys the rest of the summer and all the gifts that the North Fork presents.
Shawn C. Petretti
Superintendent of Schools
