MARBLEHEAD - Both sides in a contentious debate over the future of the Marblehead Community Charter Public School hope state bureaucrats intervene today. Any action could bring more state influence to a school founded 12 years ago to seek greater freedom from regulations.
Today's afternoon meeting will bring together state charter school officials, the remaining seven trustees and the five former trustees who resigned in protest over what they call failed governance within the 220-student school. One of those former trustees, Deborah Melnick, said the state Department of Education could pull the school's charter and hopes the other trustees will be removed.
