Much of this issue is necessarily occupied with the field of special education as seen in clear weather from the heights of the academic balloon, and mapped occordingly. It seemed appropriate therefore to include a glimpse among the crowds at ground level of an institution operating with modest fonds and modest success, and under the legacy of its past, in one of the notable urban deserts of our time. The vignettes Lawson offers us of a day-to-day reality that struggles, but that works, may remind us that many special schools are invaluable as havens of humanity, and should give pause to those for whom mainstreaming into the nearest high school is the new panacea.Date
