Abstract
This article reviews the Tenth Annual Report to Congress on the Implementation of The Education of the Handicapped Act (EHA), covering the 1986–1987 school year. In addition to reporting the current status of services (i.e., numbers of students served, their placement, resources allocated and needed for their support), the report also discusses and cites data pertinent to (a) transition from secondary education: (b) state and federal efforts anticipating full implementation of preschool special education services under Public Law 99–457; and (c) the classification of students with learning disabilities. Some directions for research on special education at a national level are suggested.
