[NAGDU] Status of Guide Dog Schools

[cindyray at gmail.com]

With the uncertainty as to how long we will be cooped up, I suspect that
April will be cancelled, but you never know. They might well find a way to
have a class in April, like, say, a retrain class like they do at the end of
the year or something.

I know the class that was running at The Seeing Eye when the outbreak
started was able to complete successfully, and the next class was cancelled.
My bet is April will be cancelled, too, but that's just how it looks to me.
I would be delighted to be wrong.

Hi, all.


This talk about GDB makes me wonder what the schools are doing now.?? I know
GDF and Seeing Eye have postponed classes, but what about those who were in
class at the time the Coronavirus restrictions went into effect?


I know GDA canceld the public portion of their March 21 graduation, but I
don't know if they let people go home with their dogs or not.?? At GDA, the
graduation is pretty much the end of their program and the last week is just
review and reinforcement..?? There's nothing on their web site since the
March 12 public statement.


What about the other schools??? Leader, GDD, Southeastern, Freedom?


Not everyone is on Facebook and Twitter, and not all of the schools have
dedicated listserves or are updating their web sites regularly.


Can anyone comment on what's going on or point us to some information?


Lisa
