[blindkid] Do I need to keep old schoolwork?

[atirjoybear]

Roanna, Steve, 
I am guilty! I have saved soo much it is shameful!! Please allow yourself to be much smarter than me. Ask your child to read some of the work then you will know what you want to to keep amd will have helped your child review.  One of these days I sill have to go through the reams of work I have saved and make some difficult decisions.

Hi Steve,

Nice to meet you!

His Braille note might be able to send to a printer.  You might also be
able to take the files from the BN and open them on a computer.

Beyond that, you could see if his Braille teacher could translate at least
some of his work.  Do you know some Braille yourself?
