Peter attended Thornhill Secondary School before entering university. by Hogg A child with a “normal performance IQ. and a significantly lower verbal score" will eventually become a slow learner, because of the emphasis placed on I.Q. scores, according to Chris McMonagle of Thomhill, a former trustee with York County board of education. Mrs. McMonagIe made her remarks in a recent presentation to the program committee of YCBE, with regard to a steering committee report on special education. Long active in work with handicapped children, Mrs. McMonagle said she had a “very deep concern" that the work of the people involved was used to the best advantage of the children whose needs it was attempting to meet. She then made several submissions of her own for consideration. Among these was one asking that admittance to special services be made on the basis of the lear- ning problem, rather than the I.Q. score. Children with a lower verbal score, “which depresses the I.Q.," would not be eligible for the diagnostic class, but would be “streamed” into the slow learners‘ program. “As the years pass, this child with a potentially average I.Q., will fall further behind and will eventually be a ‘slow learner’ and his academic future is limited by this improper placement," she said. She said parents who fought that sort of thing, were told that if they didn't want it, the school would not accept any Emphasis on LG. scores may slow child’s learning YCAMR "500" NINETEENTH WINNER IN 1977 R.

She said the 'board should establish a policy stating that, before a child could be denied purchase of a recom- mended service not available in York County, a staff report must be made to the board and parents advised of their right to appeal. Mrs. McMonagle said, also, it was imperative a program for children with severe speech disorders, be implemented im- mediately, as such a service was no longer available from Toronto. In the area of speech correction, she said it was imperative the board understand the difference between speech therapists and speech correction teachers. The latter held regular teaching certificates and had completed a minimum six-week program in speech correction. They were not trained to diagnose speech problems, but to work with minimal articulation and stuttering dif- ficulties. A speech therapist held degrees in speech pathology and audiology from a faculty of medicine. Mrs. McMonagle said. The speech therapist could make a “dif- ferential diagnosis on speech and language problems,” draw up a program and decide when the child no longer required help. Mrs. McMonagle recommended that at least two speech Answer: A high school.

She also suggested that programs for gifted children. “which have been started very rapidly this last year. be rigidly evaluated to ensure that they are enriching the education of these children and that the children are not being pressured in order to enrich the egos of those operating the programs.“ ’She said she had no reason to believe that was the case with the board, Rice's Flowers For ALL Occasions Save money!
