"Marion County is very weak in the special service area due te budgeting" said Mrs. Booth. This area includes special workers to help classroom teachers with prob lems of deaf and hard-of-hearing children, speech Correction, reme dial instruction, crippled and ill children and those visually handi- cappea. Special ClaMft This field also includes special classes for Rilled and mentally re- traded students, she added. The Suit Department of Educa tion is expected to provide part of the consultant wages and may use the area as a "pilot county In the field of special service educa tion, Mrs. Booth explained. Ratio of county and slate funds was not determined. Special education consultants would assist school district and teachers in organising educational facilities for handicapped children in "the home, special schools or classrooms, and arrange pre serv ice and in-service education of teachers in the field. They also would help determine eligibility of children for special services, supervise classes and programs for these children and assist local school districts in se lecting and obtaining special equipment and materials required for the program. The pair also could help coord i nate local, county and state agen cies In this work, Mrs. Booth add ed. The Proposal included two sec retaries to be located at the coun ty superintendent's office to main tain records and clerical work of the consultants. This would allow full time to be spent "in the field," Mrs. Booth pointed out. Particularly Pressed The assistant superintendent would be in charge of school sup ervision and curriculum, said Mrs. Booth. The superintendent's ad ministrative position is particular ly pressed lately because of the rural school district reorganization being done, she explained. In other business, redisricting of the county into five population tones was taken under advisement with a decision expected at the next meeting. This redisricting is necessary because first-class div tricts were recently placed under the board jurisdiction. Districting Is actual v done hv the County District Boundary Board, but a recommendation from the rural board was reauest- ed. said Mrs. Booth., It was also decided bv the eroun that noon meetings would be held the second Monday of each month.
