Press release from Concord-Carlisle Regional School District: May 9, 2022 Dear Families: "As often happens in May, we begin this week in what feels like early spring and end in what feels like summer if the forecasts are accurate! I will start with a huge Shout Out to the entire cast, orchestra, crew, and all those involved with the CCHS production of 42nd Street! The talents were very impressive and production very special since the CCHS theater had been without a spring musical since 2019! In the Spotlight Special Education Interim Director of Student Services Debbie Dixson provided an overview of special education in both districts at the last School Committee meeting. You will find the presentation informative, as is the recording of the discussion during the meeting. The slides are posted here and the presentation begins at minute 44 in the video posted here.
