Meetings are held the second Wednesday of each month, and besides a business meeting, each month some kind of interesting program is planned. The club also sponsors and helps pay for various subdivision activities, in cluding the Brownie and Girl Scout troops, summer swim ming lessons, and some road projects of the homeowner's association. So even if you cannot attend many meetings, the club needs everyone's support, so they can continue to carry out the activities which benefit all the residents in the subdivision. Be sure to mark Nov. 8 on your calendar, the night of the club's get-acquainted dinner. Hope to see you there! EDGEBROOK PARENTS ORGANIZE For many years, our schools have been crying for help, both financial help and parental help. Our taxes have been helping out financially, but until this year, the need for parents to become involved personally in their child's school has not been realized. But now is your chance to become involved. A group of parents from . Edgebrook school have formed ' the V.I.P.'s, or in other words, Very Important Parents. Parents who want to bee6me involved now can join this group, and give whatever help they can to their school. The next meeting of this I group will be on Nov. 8, at 9 a.m. at Edgebrook. Even if you can give only an hour a week, your help and interest in this project is needed. At this moment, a call for help in the following area is being issued: the group is collecting any and all kinds of children books for a reading center, separate from the school library. Paperbacks, hard-bound books, any books, SAVE YOUR COUPONS Our Girl Scout Trorp has made an appeal for several types of coupons and we are asking all residents to please give their cooperation and save them as they are working on two very worthwhile projects. Some coupons will be turned over to the Valley View Neigh borhood Service Team and will be used to assist the Johnsburg school in obtaining equipment for their home economics department. Other coupons which will be accepted until Dec. 15,1972 will be turned over to UNICEF. It doesn't take anytime to set aside a coupon, they certainly don't take much space to save, and when so many can benefit from them, it certainly is worthwhile. So please, help our Troop in this "good will" project and much satisfaction will be received fromVll who participate in it.

For the child, this year, there will be emphasis on the basic skills - "reading, 'riting, and 'rithmetic." Open classrooms do not mean unstructured classrooms, Dr. Boos said, and a constant review of programs and test results with the assistance of a variety of teaching aides will continue to assure that the basic skill areas of learning are not left to chance. At the same time, several new programs are surgery last week at Lutheran General hospital in Park Ridge, and would enjoy hearing from all his friends. May all of you have a real quick recovery and be on the road to better health soon. BIltfHBXYS Happy birthday wished this week go to Karen Thietje and Debby Bartkus on Nov. 4, Bill Jaramski on Nov. 7, Vi Abbink on Nov. 8, and James Tackitt on Nov. 9. SECRETARY OF STATE 19 REPUBLICAN 7 2 being initiated to focus on the individual nature of each child in keeping with the continuing thrust of developing per* sonalized learning plans for all schools. These new programs will be formally evaluated to measure their success, with a view to change or modification as the needs arise. "I prefer to try to improve the educational program even though we may face effi oc casional failure than to be complacent and say 'let's not try lest we fail,' " Dr. Boos said. For that person closest to the child - the parent - new doors are being opened for par ticipation in his development, Dr. Boos continued. With the individualization of instruction, more parent volunteers are being recruited for classroom use. At the state level, there is a thrust toward involving parents in the setting of goals and ob jectives. Locally, consideration is being given to how best to involve citizens in these processes. District 15 also continually reviews its reporting system in order to develop a more effective method of informing parents as to a child's progress. "When we strive to make every child a winner," Dr. Boos remarked, "we inherently recognize that a child is a person with a cognitive and affective domain which we must recognize. Consequently, we have the responsibility to assist him in learning his basic skills, developing his thought process, and preparing him for adult life at the same time as we foster the development of his emotions and social needs. A child has a need to be un derstood, wanted and loved. These are the things we .must provide." 'J Keep the good work going. sponsored by Citizens for Kucharski, Thomas Chuhak, Chairman.
