Abstract
This study defines the relationship that exists, past and present, between the Bayshore Mental Health Mental Retardation Center and the Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District. Consultation services offered by the Mental Health Center to Special Education Department students in the school district were significant in the historical development of special education services in the school. The problem is stated in the form of a historical descriptive study about the working relationship between these two publically funded institutions--Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District and Bayshore Mental Health Mental Retardation Center.
