The Medfield Coalition for Public Education (MCPE) was founded in 1987 by a group of concerned Medfield citizens. Today, MCPE remains an independent, non-profit organization funded to provide system-wide support and academic enrichment for the Medfield Public Schools, with particular attention to academic needs that exceed the parameters of the school budget. We strive to encourage and maintain academic excellence in the face of increasing financial constraints. MCPE awards grants to Medfield educators and administrators to support the development of innovative programs, curriculum, and enrichment. Awards favor projects that meet student needs and increase motivation to learn, as well as stimulate creativity in the classroom. All staff, teachers, administrators, and counselors are eligible to apply for a grant, as long as a direct impact upon students can be demonstrated.
