Described in the practicum report is the design, implementation, and evaluation of the first comprehensive high school program for five hearing impaired adolescents in Southeastern Massachusetts. Sections focus on the following topics: the Southeastern region's need for a high school hearing impaired program, the impact of the state invitation to develop such a program, the follow through of local and regional acceptance and program design, the Taunton High School program, program evaluation, and program cost efficiency. It is reported that the program has resulted in the specification and accomplishment of such goals as mainstreaming each handicapped student, whenever possible, into regular school and classroom activities. Noted is the active participation of enrolled students, their parents, their resource teacher, and their building administrator in a critique of program effectiveness. Stressed is the linkage relationship of the program with a preschool program serving hearing impaired children within the region. It is concluded that multi-faceted evaluation has determined the program to be a productive and cost efficient operation which is to be continued and expanded. The major portion of the document consists of appendixes such as the text of the state department invitation, guidelines for programs serving the hard of hearing, staff job descriptions, an outline of the program of studies at the high school, and a survey form.
