Students Sought Health Aid in Special Services itil!! RUBY 3 Judy Thomas made the proper adjustments on the scale. I Students desiring special help in overcoming speech impediments consulted Miss Wally Moist counseled troubled students. Beverly Evko. Students with various health and social problems benefited from the special services of Forest View's nurse, speech therapist, and psychologist. Mrs. Judy Thomas, the school nurse, en- forced a strict policy regarding the treatment of students' illnesses. She kept medical files on each student and administered first aid when necessary. A veteran nurse of twelve years, Mrs. Thomas experienced her first year as a school nurse. Using a program similar to Independent Study, Miss Beverly Evko, the speech therapist, helped students who had problems in fluency, phonetics, and articulation. By isolating a sin- gle letter and using it in words, Miss Evko helped to eliminate undesirable speech handi- caps. Later, she included the letter in an en- tire sentence until the student became accustomed to its sound and used it in his daily speech. Mr. Allen Askew, Forest View's psycholo- gist, counseled any student who, because of family or social problems, encountered dif- ficulties in school. These three people provided valuable as- sistance for those students who sought help in correcting bothersome problems. 'tif Special Services 43

Freshmen continued to spend their free hours in one of the two study halls, located in Rooms A-324 and A-205. Students participating in this liberal study program used the oppor- tunity to work in such areas as the English and Foreign Language Resource Rooms, the library, the typing rooms, or the cafeteria. Success of the Self-Directed Activities Program determined whether or not it would be extended to all under- classmen in the future.
