        Welcoming a Student with a Visual Impairment to Your School will be held
        Thursday, September 24, 2009, from 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. at Missouri

        This session is intended to provide information to teachers and
        paraprofessionals who are or will be providing services to students with

        published by Perkins School for the Blind as a framework.  Topics will
        include an overview for teachers and paraprofessionals of the abilities
        and needs of a student with visual impairment and begin to help them to
        develop their own accommodations to meet the needs of individual
        students who attend their school.  Additional topics will include
        orientation and mobility and social skills.

        Registration information is available at http://www.msb.k12.mo.us/

        Mascheck, Coordinator, Outreach Services Division, MSB,
