Special Services Park Forest staff members worked cooperatively to pro- vide services to the school. Special education teachers, Mrs. Schweon and Mrs. Curtis, emphasized individual plan- ning and programming for their students, working closely with the classroom teachers. Also concerned with individual student needs was Ms. Kolasa, who had a developmental reading program for seventh graders. She also taught reme- dial reading. Plays which were performed by students were taped by Mr. Williams who also broadcast educational television pro- grams and repaired media equipment. Mrs. Urban distributed film- strips, cassettes, and visual aids to students and faculty. She also handled large printing jobs. The persons who maintained the Learning Resource Center and decided which books to order were Mrs. Cox, the li- brarian, and Mrs. Smith, her aide. Each of these people was need- ed and appreciated by our school. ..A l think you . . . KB. Kissinger, R.
