Book excerpt: Excerpt from Public School Education of Atypical Children The cost Of special education is not mentioned by either of the preceding authors, and the State laws pertaining to atypical classes are discussed only casually by Wallin. Both these points are to be stressed in the present study. The Educational Finance Inquiry Commission, in making a survey of New York State in 1923, found that It was not possible, from the reports available in the State Office, to segregate the costs of various types of special work. 9 N O investigation has been found which gives any indication of the com parative costs for special education in the cities included in this study, although tabulations and comparisons of the costs of other divisions of city school systems are common procedures. Of course, a number of the larger cities have made analyses of their own costs in this field. Statistical studies of some of the atypical types have been made in recent years, but usually only one type is considered at a time rarely a comparison among the different groups Of atypical classes. Haines,10 in 1922, discussed the public-school facilities for mentally handicapped children and gave data showing the number of pupils and classes in all cities of population or over.
