She is a teacher and is busy finishing up the school year this week. Things will be different this year since everyone who wants to volunteer will be interviewed. This is mainly to determine where you would best fit into the program. Debby and Tyo are the teachers and if you have any questions about what is going to happen as far as teachers are concerned please feel free to email us. <br><br><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPhone</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On May 25, 2023, at 7:23 AM, Shane Popplestone via Ohio-Talk <ohio-talk@nfbnet.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div>Anna,</div><div>Don't feel bad, I've yet to hear back either.</div><div>I kept the form URL in the event someone asked for it.</div><div><a href="https://forms.gle/BdUvMVKmFnRe8MLX7">access the bell volunteer form.</a><br></div><div>Also, might I also suggest sending an e-mail or giving a call to Molly Taylor the NFB BELL Coordinator for Ohio?</div>
