Special Education Program Serves Students At MCHS When many people hear the term "special education" .they im­ mediately think of classrooms and educational programs that are com­ pletely isolated from regular curriculum programs. In fact, said a MCHS spokesman, this could not be further from the truth. All students are unique, and many students have additional learning needs that can range from very mild to very severe in nature. As a result, special educational services for certain students may only entail seeing a specially trained teacher for a small portion of a school day or on an every other day basis while others may require a residential program. McHenry Community high school District 156 recognizes this individuality in students, and has established special education programs to accommodate those dif­ ferences. In accordance with P.L. 94-142 assuring parents of all exceptional students a free, appropriate education (free defined as no cost to parents), District 156 has developed the following level system of education and or socio-emotional programs under the auspices of the Learning Management Program. There are three basic levels. Level I is for students who are educated in a self- contained environment, yet also attend those classes in the standard curriculum in which they can ap­ propriately function. Level It represents an "alternate standard program" in which the curricular content and educational methods used by the teacher are substantially changed. In this level, students move from class to class as any other student and receive an academic credit for successfully completing c ourse Our Reg. 1.97 to 5.96 14400 W. tTI. 1101 Y IRTtl CMNTRY CL«B RD Prices •ffcctiv* Frl.f Oct 31 Hire Sen., Nov. 2 KNIT HEADWEAR Infants -- Toddlers Girls " Ladles Knit winter headweor in oi l the newest styles of bonnets, hockey cops face masks, bonnet and mitten sets. 20% OFF Ladies' Scarfs Our Reg. 1.29 Here s 0 real special !

Level III is a resource program designed to provide tutorial, diagnostic and consultation services to identified students in the mainstream. District 156 administers these programs for students with behavioral disorders, learning disabilities or very mild retardation conditions. The amount of time each student will spend in these levels is contingent on his unique learning and-or socio- emotional needs. For those special education programs that McHenry Community high does not administer them­ selves, a request will be made to the Special Education District of McHenry County to provide services. Currently, District 156 tuitions students to several programs operated by SEDOM. These programs are for students who are functioning with various learning impairments, in­ cluding moderate in­ tellectual impairment, severe intellectual im­ pairment, physical han­ dicaps, auditory acuity problems, visual acuity problems, and com­ munication problems. Finally, for those students with extensive special needs, the district will work with appropriate private day treatment or residential programs that are struc­ tured to provide the types of educational services these students require. District 156 recognizes its responsibility to provide a free and appropriate education to all students regardless of cir­ cumstances. If any parent or citizen knows of a student who may require a special education program or service, they should contact Dennis Welter, director of Special Programs, at 385- 1145.

Safety Hints By Alan J. Dixon Secretary of State Halloween, the fun-filled "trick or treat" outing for children, poses special problems for drivers. Motorists are urged to slow down and watch for little ones during early evening hours. The traditional dark costumes worn by youngsters disguised as witches and goblins are difficult to see when most "trick or treaters" make their rounds. Loose clothing and masks, combined with the excitement of the ad­ venture, tend to distract the attention of young masqueraders When driving < in residential areas, reduce your speed even more than usual, and be • quickly. Chil "Y" Member Campaign At Quarter Of Coal prepared to stop quickly. Children will be inclined to dart between parked cars in their haste to get to the opposite side of the street. Masks may obstruct their view of oncoming traffic and traffic signals at crossings. Little feet can become en­ tangled in the ghost costume, and tripping is to be anticipated at in­ tersections as the children rush across the street. Even when they are escorted by an adult, children often can be unpredictable in their ac­ tions. Slowing down and wat­ ching during his happy time can prevent a popular an­ nual event from turning into a tragedy. (A copy of the Rules of the Road will be sent to you upon request. Write to Alan J.

Do peo­ ple really feel better in the fall when football is played? There is such a thing as football weather, not because of football but because of the time of year football is played in the United States. This sport comes when high pressure systems begin to push down from the north with greater regularity bring­ ing with them cold, dry air. It is the beginning of the trend towards winter and there is usually less rain in the fall than in summer. Since it's high pressure that makes people feel good (low pressure sometimes has a depressing effect), this, combined with cooler weath­ er and resulting invigoration, produces an energetic feel­ ing or that "football weath­ er" in the fall when appetites and energy seem to return after a hot summer. • • • • You might as well laugh at yourself at times; everyone else does.
