[Pibe-division] Interesting job available at the Maryland School for the Blind

[Marianne Denning]

I hope the NFB will find someone who will take on the need to have a
drivers license.  That would be a reasonable accommodation.  As long as
that is required blind and visually impaired teachers cannot apply.
