By collecting information from across New York State, we hope to identify areas for improvement and find out what worked. This may help us better serve your children in the future. Respondents to this survey may be, parents of blind children, teachers of the visually impaired or others with direct knowledge of one or more blind child’s educational picture. Survey topics include: communication, technology, educational materials and braille. We thank everyone for your voluntary participation. Together, we are the network which frames and supports the future success of these rising stars.<o:p></o:p></span></p></td></tr></tbody></table></div></div></div><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p></div><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>New-York-News mailing list</span><br><span>New-York-News@nfbnet.org</span><br><span>http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/new-york-news_nfbnet.org</span><br><span>To unsubscribe, change your list options or get your account info for New-York-News:</span><br><span>http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/new-york-news_nfbnet.org/nyabsdivision%40gmail.com</span><br></div></blockquote></body></html>
