Adult education programs report steady enrollments; driver’s-ed classes fill and IMSCC hires new voice teachers
Summary
The Concord-Carlisle ACE advisory committee heard that the February driver’s education class was full, summer driver’s-ed dates are set, and IMSCC hired three new voice teachers; the new ACE catalog was delayed by a blizzard and is due to be mailed the following week.
At its Feb. 27 meeting, the Concord-Carlisle Adult & Community Education advisory committee received routine program updates from Jill Weintraub, director of Adult and Community Education, including enrollment trends, staffing and catalog distribution.
Weintraub reported that the new ACE catalog was delayed by a blizzard but was scheduled to go to the printer by Monday and to arrive in homes the following Tuesday. She reminded members that July 1 is the deadline to propose courses for the fall semester.
On driver’s education, Weintraub said the February Break class was full and the session that began after school and snow-day makeups was nearly full. The committee was told summer driver’s-education dates had been set: one session in June, two in July and one in August.
Minutes record that IMSCC hired three new voice teachers for the upcoming session — described in the minutes as “two male and one female” — and that spring enrollments for that program were still being processed with summer dates to be announced.
Committee discussion touched on enrollment patterns: several courses are well attended while classes around self-care (for example, goal-setting and mental health topics) are undersubscribed, and college and test-prep offerings drew fewer registrants (Weintraub suggested some families opt for private tutors).
