Beacon School Opens Pre School for Mentally Retarded Children
Beverly Jones visits Beacon School in Athens County as its first annual pre school class for mentally retarded four year olds begins. Teacher Grace Schmittauer notes short attention spans prevent group work while students from across the county enjoy play and interaction with peers and staff. The program, part of Beacon School’s services since 1956, aims to prepare children for entry into Beacon School and augment home training and parental classes. Enrollment has grown from 12 in 1962 to 57 today, with renewal of a county levy on Tuesday.
