County admit they are wrong! I learned that neither of the clerks even knows the
alphabet. One doesn't even realize the spatial relationship between dots. He
Brailed out an 800 page print book as one file. I wonder how he decided to break
it into volumes since he can't read page numbers? Steve are you still at
Central? Sharon Davis left me with the impression that the four teachers
there are proofing the material. I know this isn't true because
one told me she isn't. We need to make sure that parents are aware of
this. Nickie has put something on facebook and has gotten the attention of a few
parents. I can't remember if I told you all or not, but Sharon Davis is not
going to be at our convention. Jackie June will be there. I think her title is
Program Specialist. I won't have a problem with telling her what I think
either. I am working on a list of questions for us to ask. Unfortunately, I have
learned that no one from KSB will attend. I was hoping that either John Roberts
or Soraya Matthews could come. I'll bet my blood pressure is 200 over
200. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<TD vAlign=top>Are print textbooks not proofread for formatting problems
and typos? Don't we have the right to demand the same consideration for
the education of our blind children? I thought we were no longer
living in the time when a second-rate education was acceptable. Jeff

wrong. <BR><BR>It's a lot more satisfying to reach for the stars,

<DIV class=plainMail>There is no replacement for BRAILLE!!! Even
though I don't use it in public reading, I use it every day in one
fashion or another!!! Technology is awesome, however, without the
ability to read, what good are a bunch of characters, links and whatever
on a computer screen going to do! John G. Fight for Right,

Convention<BR><BR><BR>> Good Morning!<BR>> <BR>> The 2010 state
convention is fast approaching. The deadline for<BR>>
pre-registration is September 15th, one week from today. Ranelle is hard
at<BR>> work trying to get things in order so don't wait until the
last minute.<BR>> Remember, you will pay $5 extra for registration,
the luncheon and the<BR>> banquet if you miss the deadline.<BR>>
<BR>> I received a reply from Dr. Sharon Davis, Director of ECE in
Jeff County.<BR>> Basically she believes the Braille Clerks are doing
a good job and a<BR>> knowledge of technology in this day and age is
more important than knowing<BR>> Braille. What a crock. I plan to
take further action. I realize that they<BR>> aren't going to change
their minds, but I intend to make them look stupid<BR>> nevertheless.
I only hope a parent of a Braille reader has enough insight to<BR>>
take a close look, or get someone else to see what is being produced by
the<BR>> "Braille Team." I think that is our only hope of getting
something done.<BR>> <BR>> Cathy<BR>> <BR>> <BR>>
