<DIV>Jaon has had 3 TVI's and none of them knew the Braille music code. For music class in elementary school his TVI and music teacher somehow figured enough of the code for him to learn what was required in class. Jason learned the code through a Dancing Dots program and a local piano teacher.<BR> </DIV>Susan
