This paper analyzes the linguistic statute given to Brazilian Sign Language and the constraints imposed on it due to the overlapping of values derived from social and academic representations referring to the word. The assumption here is that it was just partially successful the determination of the Brazilian Sign Language linguistic statute, once, even already recognized as a natural linguistic system, there is still a reading of its structure and its operation based on assumptions pertaining to the word domain. In consequence of this, the tendency to the reinforcement of social stigma associated to the deaf persists, especially in the context of school education, through what will be defined as a spectacle of overcoming. It is a theoretical approach leading to a deep reflection about the real situation of the Brazilian Sign Language in the development of school education of the deaf individual, based on four intercomplementary points of view from the fields of Philosophy, Linguistics and Social Psychology. With this analysis, as a conclusion, the focus is on the issue of school education of the deaf and the role that the development of a full linguistic statute for the Brazilian Sign Language can play in the education of the deaf.
