<br>
The CCHS Bands are selling Innisbrook products to raise money for a
trip to Japan in <br>
April, 2007. Innisbrook sells quality wrapping products, candies,
gourmet foods, and <br>
banners. Individual student trip accounts will share profits from
Innisbrook sales with <br>
the general band scholarship fund. There are three ways you can help
the instrumentalists <br>
get to Japan. Innisbrook products may be purchased by contacting a band
student directly, <br>
looking for our Innisbrook table at Back to School night, or shopping
at the Innisbrook<br>
website, <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.innisbrook.com">www.innisbrook.com</a>. On the website, follow the prompts that
insure our <br>
school is credited with the sale. Donations to the Japan '07 trip fund
can be made, <br>
payable to CCHS Band, and mailed to <b>Mary Cheever, 74 Carroll Drive
Carlisle, 01741.<br>

+++++ <br>
<br>
<b><font color="#3333ff">Parents of the class of 2006</font></b>:<br>
Please remember that your parent ads are due no later than next <b>Friday,
September 30</b>. <br>
You can design your own ad, send in pictures with a sketch of an ad, or
include pictures <br>
and have Herff Jones (our publishing company) create the ad for you.
Students will not <br>
see parent ads until the yearbook is delivered to the school in May.<br>
<br>
<b><font color="#3333ff">Seniors</font></b>:<br>
Senior Portraits and Baby Pictures are due no later than next <b>Friday,
September 30</b>. If you <br>
had your picture taken at Anderson, you do not need to submit it—they
will submit it for you. <br>
If you choose, baby pictures can be accompanied by text. Students often
use this space for a <br>
meaningful quote or to list memories that have occurred over the last
few years. If you (and <br>
your friends) are planning on designing an ad for the back of the
yearbook, these are due next <br>
<b>Friday, September 30</b>. If you are creating a collage, you can cut
and paste pictures onto an <br>
8x11 page and turn that page in. It will be scanned into the computer.
If you are using square <br>
(or rectangular) pictures and want them side by side, you can just
number the photos and sketch <br>
where you want them to go. You do not need to paste them down. If you
are using digital photos, <br>
burn them onto a CD and again just make a sketch of what you would like
your page to look like.<br>

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