Exceptional Program Has
Wide Range Of Services
The Warren County
Schools Exceptional
Program offers a wide
range of services to
students in grades K-12.
Since its inception, after
passage of public law 94
142 guaranteeing ap
propriate services for
all handicapped
children ages five to 18.
The program has ex
panded yearly to meet
the growing needs of
students.
Approximately 473
i students receive ser
s vices across a broad
• spectrum of categories.
5 Of the 17 special
education teachers,
eight hold master's level
degrees. Some students
receive services from
two or more areas.
Severely profoundly
handicapped children
are served at the child
development center un
der the direction of a
former special
education teacher, Mrs.
Fonda Kirk. This
program is year round,
staffed with three aides
and transportation is
provided free of charge
to parents. Trainable
handicapped students
are served at the provo
cation center at John
Graham Middle School.
Here students ranging
in age from five to 18
learn work skills
enabling them to lead
independent, self
supporting lives upon
graduation. The center
is equipped with a
working kitchen, bed
room area, sewing
machines and simulated
work areas. Students
graduating from this
program are referred to
the sheltered workshop
in Henderson for further
job training if
necessary.
Educable mentally
handicapped students
are served in their
respective schools by a
resource teacher who
also serves the learning
disabled population.
There are teachers at all
levels, K-12. The
program for EMH
students at Warren
County High School is
unique in that a com
plete high school
curriculum is offered.
Students may choose the
entire curriculum or
just particular courses
in which they are ex
periencing difficulty in
the mainstream. Voca
tional training program
is a strong component.
Four teachers conduct
the classes with the
assistance of aides.
Students who may have
dropped out in the past
now find the special help
and encouragement
needed to stay in school.
One speech/language
teacher serves students
in grades K-12 who
exhibit moderate to
severe speech or
language disorders.
This teacher is responsi
ble for screening and
testing students as well
as on-going therapy.
Warren County's 19
hearing-impaired stu
dents receive services
from two hearing
impaired teachers who
move from school to
school during the week
providing services such
as speech, reading,
audiological manage
ment, tutoring and
special assistance to
regular teachers who
have these children in
their classrooms.
They also conduct the
annual hearing screen
ing and are available for
parent consultations
concerning hearing
problems.
One hundred and forty
five gifted students have
been identified accord
ing to state guidelines
involving a variety of
tests and screening
devices. Services are of
fered from grades one
through eight with cour
ses planned for the
second trimester at
Warren County High
Schopl. One teacher

classes at all schools ex
cept Northside Elemen
tary and Mariam Boyd.

teacher, certified in gift
ed, provides enrichment
at Mariam Boyd.
Enrichment activities

thinking skills in the
early grades, the study
of literature and philoso
phy in the middle grades
and computer
programming at the
high school level.
In addition to special
programs, homebound
services are provided
for any students who
will be hospitaliz
ed/homebound for more
than four weeks during
the school year. Also,
the preschool screening
program is funded by
the exceptional
program to help detect
learning problems and
provide remediation at
the earliest stage
possible. This year was
the first year of this
program and it has been
highly successful.
Every year the excep
tional teachers sponsor
the special Olympics; a
year long project, with
the help of the com
munity and parents. All
parents of exceptional
children are encouraged
to drop by classes
frequently and to get in
volved in any way with
their child's class.
Bleach Is One Key
To A Cleaner Wash
Chlorine and oxygen
based bleaches whiten
fabrics and help remove
stains and heavy soils.
"The oxygen-basea
bleach may be used on
all types of fabric,
should be used regularly
for best results and ean
be added along with the
detergent," says Dr.
Harriet Tutterow, ex
tend00 .clothing
specialist-in-charge.
North Carolina State
University.
It is the chlorine
bleach which can cause
problems if used im
properly- "A
follow the manufac
turer's instructions,
measure the bleach and
always dilute," the ex
tension specialist says.
If a chlorine bleach is
poured directly onto
clothing, the garments
may fade or develop
white spots. Rips, tears
and holes may appear
several washings later.
"Use the bleach
dispenser if your
machine has one, or add
bleach to the water
filled tub and then load
the clothes," Dr. Tut
terow recommends.
Never use chlorine
bleach on silk, wool or
spandex, non-colorfast
fabrics or those with a
flame-retardant finish.
To test for colorfast
ness, combine 1
tablespoon of chlorine
bleach with V« cup of
water. With a medicine
dropper, put some of the
solution on a hidden
seam area. Let it stand 1
minute. Blot dry. If
there is no color change,
the article can be safely
bleached.

Dedicated. How many of us are truly
dedicated to something? I know one person
who is truly dedicated. That person is Robin
Vick, the June-July weigh-in contest winner.
The dictionary gives a formal definition of
"dedicated" as being devoted to a cause,
ideal, or purpsoe. Mrs. Vick is certainly dedi
cated to her purpose; weight loss. Over the
last seven months Ms. Vick has lost approxi
mately fifteen pounds. Although to some, this
would not seem like much, it is this form of
slow weight loss that most usually is never
regained. And this dedication of Ms. Vick's
towards losing weight is the necessary
ingredient for slow weight loss and achieve
ment of her goal.
Another staunch believer in dedication is
Mr. W. A. Miles, owner and operator of Miles
Hardware, Inc., sponsor of the June-July
Weigh-In. As Mr. Miles has stated,"each per
son should have a goal or purpose throughout
his life. And what better purpose could a
person have but that of improving his/her
health?"
"So many people are dedicated to weight
loss but they never seem to lose any weight,"
stated Mr. Miles. "They always seem to com
plain about not losing weight, laying the blame
on someone or something other than them
selves. To be truly dedicated, the person has to
take responsibility for his/her own behavior,"
believes Mr. Miles.
That responsibility Mr. Miles mentioned is
the key to dedication. Being dedicated to a
goal or purpose automatically makes you
responsible for achieving it. Without that
feeling of self-responsibility, it becomes very
easy to blame your failure on someone or
something else. It is this rut that many of us
fall into from time to time.
A sincere wish for all dedication needed to
reach her goal goes to Ms. Vick, along with
congratulations for her every effort up to this
point. Sincere thanks go to Mr. Miles and
Miles Hardware, Inc. for sponsoring this June
July Weigh-in contest.
Anyone interested in learning more about
our contest should call 257-1185 and ask for ex
tension 49.
