[NABS-L] Staying in school until 21

[Jonathan Franks]

Hello Armando,
I graduated when I was 18, but then again I was not blind at the time.
SO, I was not faced with your decision. At the Texas School for the
Blind, they have a specialized program for students that either will
help them prepare for college by having them take one college course
or prepare them for work with helping them find a place for
employment. The age range goes up until 22, however many of these
students have had trouble academically or may have had a secondary
disability. Ultimately, the decision is up to you and I would
recommend getting blindness skills training, so you are better
prepared for college.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create
obstacles between blind people  and our dreams. You can live the life
you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
