BEEP Program Awaken Interests Headed by Mr. jack Bateman, a brand-new program was initiated last year. Ballardls Exceptional Education Program kept many students from leaving school. Courses offered were usual in some respects for there were classes in history, biology, math and language arts. However there were other classes which were new. Among these were Film Criticism. Black Studies, New Movements, Ecology, Genetics and a-Iournalism class which wrote and printed the BEEP newspaper. BEEP permitted students to obtain credits for high school graduation at their own speed and at the same time encouraged the students to become more interested in school.
