Children ’s Development Enhanced
During Dallas Summer School
The Dallas Elementary
Summer School is now in its
fifth week and will continue
until Aug. 6. Instruction is from
9 a.m. until Noon, with a mik
and cookie break at 10:25 a.m.
The program is funded under
Title I, E. S. E. A.
The program consists of
classes in pre school, pre kin-
dergarten, kindergarten,
reading, mathematics, frostig
art, frostig physical education
and speech.
At the pre-school level, the
child is worked with as an in-
dividual as well as part of a
group. With the different
developmental materials the
child is able to function and
learn at his own level. In-
tentions are to aid the children
in becoming better thinkers,
listeners, talkers and per-
ceivers. Academically the child
is taken as far as he is able to go
in preparation for future years.
The necessity for children of
this age to develop adequate
peer relationships is recognized
and the child has many op-
portunities to develop socially.
It is at the kindergarten level
that a child’s early experience
should foster his development,
socially, physically,
emotionally, and intellectually.
These are categories used in
observing his development and
are guideposts to obtaining a
fuller understanding of his
nature.
With a program centered
around individual instruction,
the objectives of the Kin-
dergarten are increasing the
skills of the children in
language and number skills.
Individual aid is applied in
learning the alphabet and letter

sounds. By means of group
instruction the children achieve
self confidence, the ability to
work properly with others and
the ability to carry out
responsibilities with self con-
trol.
The reading program is in-
tended to promote both com-
prehensive and word analysis
skills. There are five reading
teachers, each having an aide;
each of the five reading groups
are very small. The students
receive much individualized
instruction in conjunction with
group activities. Each teacher
selects reading material at the
child’s level which enriches his
vocabulary and improves his
reading skills.
The mathematics program is
conducted with the objective of
helping the individual in the
area or areas in which he is
weak. The children were
grouped according to a test
administered at the beginning
of the session which determined
their weaknesses. Group in
struction by the teacher is
supplemented by individual
help given by both the teacher

Rural Health Initiates
Family Health Training
John Lushefski, president of
the Rural Health Corporation of
Luzerne County announced that
the Corporation has initiated a
Family Health Worker training
program under the supervision
of Karyn Kruse, social worker
and Dorothy Case, R.N. In-
volved in the training are four
Family Health Worker train-
ees: Eloise Montross, Noxen;
Margaret Edwards, Harveys
Lake; Mary Weir, Wyoming;
and Walter Glowacki, Larks-
ville. Mrs. Montross and Mrs.
Edwards, were previously em-
ployed at the Harveys Lake-
Noxen Center as clerical aides;
Mr. Glowacki came to the
corporation as a New Careers
trainee from the Concentrated
Employment Program; Mrs.
Weir has had previous exper-
ience as a social service volun-
teer and as a physician’s recep-
tionist.
The Family Health Worker
training program was begun
June 1, 1971, and is being con-
ducted at the Harvey's Lake-
Noxen Health Center. The
course involves a three month
Upon completion of the train-
ing program, it is anticipated
that the family health workers
will function as a combination
nurses’ aides—social worker
aides and will be under the
supervision of a nurse or a
social worker. The Family
Health workers will be capable
of performing the nonpro-
fessional tasks which often-
times have been performed by
nurses and social workers. By
utilizing the Family Health
workers in this manner, nurses
and social workers will be able
to devote more time to perform-
ing the professional tasks for
which they were trained.
In a rural community the
trained Family Health worker
will serve as a link between the
rural family and the health ser-
vices needed by that family.
The Family Health worker will
focus on the family unit rather
than'the individual members of
the family, and will be aware of
not only physical ills of family
members, but also the family’s
social and environmental prob-
lems.

“We have every expectation
of reaching 100 percent of our
goal by the campaign’s end
Aug. 11,” Mr. Goeringer said.
“Originally, the goal for this
year’s campaign was set at 300
but was raised to 350 during the
kick-off meeting in June. We al-
ready have 91 percent of the
original goal,” he noted.
Mr. Goeringer also noted that
this year’s campaign was
resulting in a higher percentage
of new benefactors registering
in addition to those renewing
their memberships from prev-
ious years. He attributed the in-
crease to the series of programs
scheduled by Theatre 3 for the
1971-72 entertainment season:

stages of the training program
will be to develop out-reach and
social service capability; after-
ward, health service roles, i.e,
nurses aides, will be stressed.
