The next Citywide Parent Council meeting is Monday, January 26, 2004 at 7 p.m. at the Daley School. The topic is "What parents need to know about drugs, tobacco & alcohol." Everyone is welcome to attend the meeting. If you do, you will hear from health and law enforcement specialists, you will learn the warning signs of teen drug abuse, and you will find out how to talk to your child about substance abuse. Also, Lowell Educational TV, working with the School Department, has produced a 30 minute program called "Making Math Connections With Your Child." This show explains the new math program being used in Lowell's schools and gives you some suggestions on how you can help your child with math. The show will be broadcast on Channel 22 on Sundays at 10:30 am and 4 pm; Mondays at 9:30 pm; Tuesdays at 12:30 pm and 4:30 pm; Thursdays at 12:30 pm, 4:30 pm and 9:30 pm; and Saturdays at 10:30 am and 4 pm.
