+++++ CCPOPS GENERAL MEETING +++++  

On *Thursday, September 22, at 7:30 p.m. in Band Room (A-4)*, the 
Concord Carlisle
Patrons of Performing Students (CCPOPS) is holding a general meeting to 
which all
interested parents are invited. (Please note: this is a change from the 
previously announced
date of Oct. 12.) CCPOPS is a non-profit organization created to support 
the Concord
Carlisle High School students involved in the performing arts. We are 
not a political
organization. We provide our support directly by lending our personal 
skills, energy, and
enthusiasm to enhance the quality of the performing arts experiences of 
the students. We
also raise funds to support both particular events and the performing 
arts programs as a whole.
Performing arts at CCHS include Chorus, Orchestra, Band, Dance, Drama, 
and Musicals.
Membership in CCPOPS is open to anyone willing to help--whatever skills, 
experience, and
ideas you'd like to share, please do. Questions? Call CCPOPS President 
*Diane Payne at
978-287-5031 or email president at ccpops.org*.

+++++ CCPI BOOK GROUP SERIES +++++  

Save the Date! The Concord Carlisle Parent Initiative (CCPI)  Book Group 
Series begins on
*Tuesday, October 18*. We will meet at the *Concord Public Library from 
7 to 9 p.m.* to discuss
Raising Resilient Children by Robert  Brooks and Sam Goldstein. CCPI has 
chosen this book
because of its wide scope of information addressing issues for parents 
of all ages of children.
It helps parents look at ways to bring out the best in their children 
through their parenting
techniques. The book definitely supports the 40 Developmental Assets 
that Concord has
established for raising healthy youth. Kathy Reticker, early childhood 
specialist, will be moderating
the discussion. *RSVP: Jeaninecalabria at comcast.net*
