Understanding exceptional children in public schools and how to support their growth
This historical study surveys the challenges and opportunities in educating students who show extreme individual differences.
It looks at how schools, physicians, and social workers can cooperate to identify needs, tailor instruction, and guide students toward healthier, more productive paths. The work also considers the local context of New Orleans and similar cities as educators explore vocational and practical education as a part of mainstream schooling.
The material emphasizes careful observation, medical and anthropometric data, and the careful balance between flexible reform and prudent practice. It urges thoughtful surveys of local conditions, collaboration among professionals, and careful attention to the social and economic factors that shape a child’s schooling and future opportunities.
Ideal for readers of educational reform, school administrators, and teachers exploring inclusive, practical approaches to help all students succeed.
