Ohio,

story!

 

Have you wondered what was it like to attend a public school? 

 

Have you wondered what was it like to attend a state school for the blind?

 

Many Ohio members have either attended or taught at various schools across
the country, and their experiences are likely unique.

 

We want to hear from you!

 

Tonight's Zoom call at 6:30 PM will shed some light on three different
educational settings.

 

So, which reflects your experience?

 

Join and see!
