EE Small classes were most helpful. Meeting the individual needs of Ram students in our side was the main goal of Pat Moore, department head of the Exception- al Student Education Department. Small classes enabled teach- ers to spend time with each individual student on a one-to-one basis. ESE students undertook required academic subjects along with specialized vocational emphasis designed to work on specific academic or behaviorable problems, said Mrs. Moore. F 1.

Hearing Impaired Meeting individual needs was most important. The Hearing Impaired Department continued to thrive with the leadership of department head Ms. Debra Bloom. The pro- gram focused on each individual need of the fifteen students. Some of these students suffered a great hearing loss while others could not hear well enough to enroll in regular classes. The program has been well accepted by the other students and the faculty are very supportive,', stated Ms. Bloom. The third year of the hearing impaired program was a very serviceable year as Ms. Bloom worked with the students individually and helped to integrate her students with other classes and programs here in our side. l At times students find it necessary to work alone. 2. Making up missed work after school is an unwanted chore. 3. Mrs. Debbie Bloom works with students individually. Hearing lmpairedf43
