A meaning to the life of the differently-abled (Monday, Oct 31, 2005)

An educationist, teacher, hard taskmaster, able administrator – none of these descriptions singly define this towering persona.

She’s been into social activities for a long time now. But S.S. Jayalakshmi feels there’s still a lot more to be done.

…Shall we dance?

Aarthi asks Gowtham, “Akka ku Tripathakam vechchu kaamipiya?” Gowtham struggles a bit. However, with help from Aarthi, he succeeds in bending his ring finger. “Mudras such as these are exercises for his fingers; Arai Mandi (a half-sitting posture in Bharatanatyam) is good for his knees and calf muscles,” she explains. Aarthi Shankar is a Bharatanatyam dancer, and her pupils are children with physical and mental disabilities.

Some one Special (June 3, 2011)

S.S. Jayalakshmi is a bundle of energy. But, when the 78-year-old educationist meets her ‘special’ pupils, the grandmother in her comes to the fore. A tender word of encouragement here, a gentle pat there — in five minutes, she has their full attention.

A pioneer in integrated education(COIMBATORE, January 9, 2013)

For parents of special children, S.S. Jayalakshmi, who passed away at the age of 79 on January 7 (Monday), will always remain an inspiration. For, this educationist helped them believe in their children and their abilities. For children with special needs, Ms. Jayalakshmi, a pioneer in integrated education, will always be the person who encouraged them, the kind grandmother who revelled in their achievements, however small they seemed to the world.
