‘Special’ student is nominated for award
by SCO TT N E W T O N
Sue Chambers, special
education instructor at
Sandy Union High School,
has seen students with lear
ning disabilities drop out
One student who has
hung in there is Lore*
Camp, a junior
“ One thing I think that is
very special about Lorea is
that even if she comes in
and you can tell she’s hav
ing a bad day. if you ask
her about it, she’ll end up
sm iling,” said Chambers,
who added. "She's deter
mined ”
Those are among the
qualities that are responsi
b le
fo r
C h a m b e rs
n o m in a tin g C a m p fo r
“ Outstanding Handicapped
High School Student. ” an
h o n o r g iv e n
by the
M etropolitan Comm ittee
for Employment of the
Handicapped
The winner of the honor
to be determined by a panel
of
in d iv id u a ls
fro m
b usin ess and s e rv ic e
groups, won't be announc
ed until spring High school
students from Clackamas,
M ultnom ah, Washington
and Columbia Counties are
eligible
To Chambers, Camp is a
winner either way. And she
has a stack of recommen
dations from tutors and
other teachers to back her
up
About 100 students are in
volved in the learning
center program at the high
school Six are mentally
retarded students who re
quire a good deal of special
attention, but are “capable
of being educated " O th er
“ t r a in a b le
m e n ta lly
retarded" students par
ticipate in a Clackamas
County Education Service
District program, which is
held at Cedar Ridge
Some in the SUHS pro
gram have physical han
dicaps, and others are
“ learning disadvantaged.”
T h e te rm “ le a rn in g
disadvantaged" can cover
a wide range of problems,
including d yslexia and
s i m ila r
d is o rd e rs
A u d ito ry -m e m o r y p ro
blems are the most com
mon handicap Chambers
and her staff deal with
“They don’t look han
dicapped," Chambers said
"Y o u don't know that
they're handicapped, but at
the same tim e they're
working very hard ”
Said Chambers, "The
m ajority of the students I
work with are of normal in
telligence. but they have a
learning disability, which
means in some area the
m essage is not being
recorded in the brain pro
perly ''
Some of these students
don't attend the learning
center "Their pride gets in
the w ay.” Chambers said
“ So they work hard to com
pensate ”
Still, special considera
tions may be made, like the
seating arrangement in a
class, for example And,
their grades are checked
frequently
Most attend the learning
center for only a class
period a day Otherwise
they are "main streamed ”
Said Chambers, “ We strive
for that so they can work
with the other students as
much as possible.”
In that class period they
may do homework, but
they must also take time to
"build basic skill needs.”
Students with a learning
disability are required to
pass the same competency
tests as their classmates
" T h e y earn the same
diploma as every else,"
Cham bers said, adding
that many of them work
harder to get it.
Camp has an auditory-
m em ory problem
“ I t ’s
just that I can’t read as
well as some of the other
kids," Camp said "But, I
try a lot ”
Camp attended Boring
Grade School, and is next
to the youngest in a family
of six Her parents are
Gerald and Melba Camp
She’s interested in track,
and )ogs at least a couple of
miles a day She also likes
to ride horses, and is in
terested in becoming a
nurse
She’s takin g English,
typing, w orld cultures,
history and "foods." where
she works for Juanita
Shuler in the cafeteria
She also spends a class
p e rio d w o r k in g as a
teacher’s assistant to Stan
Bowman, a science instruc
tor
Camp said she feels no
stigma from participating
in the learning center pro
gram
Asked why she has stuck
with the program when
others dropped out. she
said. “ I'd rather be at
school.”
Said Chambers. “ I don't
know of another student
who is special and unique
ing for recipes from people
that possess that special
quality that a person can
call "uniquely their own ”
Cox said the cookbook
