Two of the teachers, Pauline Miller and Rachel Dick, were Informed Friday that they have been awarded a Teach er's Incentive Program grant for their project, called LAPP (Listen, Appreciate, Praise, Progress). Under the program, adults with the time and inclination to listen to children read, or just talk if that is the child's need, will be recruited In the coming weeks. Several hours a week, the volunteers will be asked to come to the school for the support project. Although Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Dick planned to begin their program even If the grant had not been made, it will finance transportation of volunteers and adults who would prefer to "taxi" other adults to and from the school are also asked to sign up. Comfortable used chairs and lamps are needed. Since the grant Is not large, dona lions will be accepted grate fully. If necessary, slipcovers and cushions will be added through the fund. The grant, which is for the second semester of this school year only. Is given to the county clerk, who will handle all payments. In addition to transporta tion, some furniture and costs of recruitment (forms and advertising), school lunches will be provided for the volunteers who work In the forenoons. Noon of the grant Is used to reimburse teachers or volun teers for their time. Noting that a number of other schools were using older people to give children more aitention than is possible for the classroom teacher, with marked success. Mrs, Miller and Mrs. Dick wrote their proposal as an Adopt-Adapt project. The Teachers' Incen- live Program annually make a number of grants, totaling $25,000 to Oregon teachers for such projects or for innovative proposals. This is the first such award in Morrow Coun ty. The Heppner Primary pro . gram will be a pilot project for the county, to be used as a guide for all the schools later. After the initial outlay for furniture, recruitment forms, small handbooks for the volunteers to describe the program, and payment vou chers for those furnishing transportation or eating lun ches, costs of the program will be small. Since there are eleven teachers at Heppner primary. It is hoped that enough adults are Interested In LAPP so their support can be available to all the children who need it. Some of the teachers would like to have the adult in their rooms, while others will use a LAPP station for children. The school also has used high school students as teach ers aides for a number of years. The need for other volunteers has been felt, however, because due to having to be transported, the high school aides' time was limited and didn't coincide with the primary schedule. This necessary and valuable program will be continued, as the students are mainly used for secretarial work by teach ers. Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Dick will set up their recruitment procedure and begin active recruitment of adults after Christmas, but they will be pleased to begin listing sup port people now. Those who are interested either in listen ing or in taxi service or in donating chairs may call the school. 676-9128 or contact Mrs. Miller or Mrs. Dick.
