CCGP- A message from Lillian

Greetings,

If you are receiving this email your school currently has a CCG program or you have filed a letter of intent to come on board with a CCG program this year. As the USOE CCGP specialist my role is to support you in your efforts to run your CCG program. As the USOE CCGP specialist, I like to meet with counselors from charter schools with a CCG program once per year. I have scheduled November 16th for our annual meeting. This meeting will be here at USOE from 1:00 pm to 3:30 pm in room 241. I will address questions you may have and give you updates on the latest materials regarding Comprehensive Counseling and Guidance Programs. There are some news items for FY11 that you need to be aware for your program and funding.

I invite one school counselor or representative per school to attend this meeting. Please make sure you have a representative attend this meeting. Again this meeting is for charter school that already have an excising CCG program or filed a letter of intent last year.

I look forward to see you on November 16th.

RMACAC College Fair

The College Fair put on by RMACAC will be held at Jaun Diego Private School in SLC on Saturday October 23rd. For those students who are interested and who will NOT be taking the ACT that morning, they are welcome to come to workshops put on by the different universities. There is also a workshop put on by Bruce Hunter and Bruce Brewer to help students better understand how they can be more prepared and organized when it comes to College Application. This will be an all day event so students are more than welcome to come up after the ACT and look around and meet College Reps. Please pass this word around.
