promotion, operation, and supervis

-,' Definition
. J "Special Education" refers to
those special instructional services
provided for children who deviate
from the normal, either, physically
r mentally, to the exent that they
require different or additional ser
vces than those required for nor
mal classroom children. In this
program such children have been
classified as the pLysically handi
capped and the mentally retarded.
' The physically handicapped include
the following: (1) crippled, and
those with (2) speech defects, (3)
Vision defects, and (4) hearing de-
. feet..
' i This eroun also includes those
with j health problems resulting
rom- cardiac" conditions, epilepsy,
fend other diseases.
