Changes in federal law have paved the way for students with traumatic brain injury (TBI) to receive special educational services. Although not all students with TBI need special education, many will need careful planning for reintegration into the classroom. The present article presents information about the range of services that need to be considered for these students and the problems that can affect students‘ academic and social functioning. Characteristics that distinguish this group of students from peers with special learning needs are highlighted and specific suggestions are made to help educators work more effectively with these students when they return to school. A case study is used to highlight the issues discussed.
