> Oh, my, yes!  Winona signed up for marching band. Director has already been working on getting a partner to march with her. Winona would really like to take Jazz band as well, but that availability will totally be determined by her test scores. At the very least she will take it after school 2nd semester.

>> The "required" Braille block is in the schedule for fall semester only. We agreed to that time for music Braille and technology needs. Plus it'll take some pressure off the first semester of high school.  I'm really looking forward to high school for Winona. We're on block schedules, and have only 4 classes a semester. More material at a time, but longer classes, and less transitions. I think she will flourish with this.

>>> Funny you should ask! At the transition meeting, which Winona reluctantly attended, she was able to express to the high school team that she WANTS to be a band director or teacher. How can she do that without Braille? The high school TVI has finally gotten the program running (they've had it two years....). The current band director took on the teaching of the music Braille himself. He admits it isn't perfect, but he's not letting that stop him for doing all he can to help Winona be all she can be. Once he jumped on board, the team was rather embarrassed that they weren't holding up their end. This band director has been the best. We were so blessed to have him for the past three years. We're moving on to high school, and he had to retire, but promises to keep working on the music with her.

>>> Congratulations to both of you!!! Now for the next chapter of her education. It is so wonderful to watch all of these kids grow up! Seems like I was just answering your questions on how to teach her Braille, and now you have a child earning all sorts of awards. What ever happened with the band problem?
