The paper presents elements for a reflection on the implementation of Article 26-A of the LDB (modified by Law 10.639/2003 and 11.645/2008) in the light of the challenges of special education. The article examines the pedagogical practices in the context of a school specializing in deaf education. Data collected in a school in the Southeast, the national research "Pedagogical practices with ethnic-racial relations in the school from the perspective of Law 10.639/2003", in an educational institution specialized in caring for deaf students, suggest that in addition to specific training for professionals, education for the ethnic-racial relations is also an urgent demand.
