Testimonials
The things I was introduced to at the School for the Blind were incredible. They made my life so much easier ... I now feel that I am just as capable of doing things that normal 20\20 vision people do in [their] daily work and home environment ... my time at the NDVS\SB has been the best experience that I have ever received from any state agency. Matt Philipenko
When you live in a rural area there are limitations on what a child with a visual impairment can attend. The School for the Blind's summer programming is a perfect example for what we need. If my child was not able to attend, we would be going backwards in our education instead of forwards. The School for the Blind gives our children the knowledge that can't be fit into a classroom in public schools. Suzanne Kartes
I have been visually impaired from birth, and people from Vision Services have been available at every stage of my development ... As I grew up, it was very beneficial for me to associate with other peers who were visually impaired to share common problems and concerns. This is one important benefit of center based programming at Vision Services. I learned so much both from my peers and the staff at Vision Services.
The staff has ... been very helpful over the years. Being able to learn skills from people who are trained in the field is very beneficial as they are aware of the best practices and teaching techniques. As I have grown older and become more independent, it has been a comfort to know that the staff are just a phone call or e mail away.
... The work they do [at NDVS/SB] makes a difference in the lives of all students who are visually impaired or blind in North Dakota. Alexis Read
As the mother of an elementary school aged daughter who is struggling to learn Braille and many other low vision skills in order to keep up with her classmates, I am grateful for the summer programs that have given her an academic boost, a peer group of young friends who share her struggles, and a staff of highly professional and caring vision teachers.
