[nabs-l] High school outreach

[Jim Reed]

I'm wondering what, if any stratagies people have tried to use in reaching out to blind high school students.

Also, I was wondering if the NABS has ever considered starting a program where blind college students can show blind high schoolers around campus.

In other words, if a blind high school student wanted to take a trip to check out a potential college, then a blind college student could show them around (assuming there is a blind student at the school in question). Maybe there would even be a way to get the blind student guides paid through such a program, as the program would ultimatly be helping the college recruiters.

Thoughts?
