Council of Schools and Services for the Blind

A Message for Families and Friends: Stay Healthy−Stay Strong

Every school and agency member of the Council of Schools and Services for the Blind strives to serve students through promoting dignity, independence and the best practices in education. Every school and agency will reach out to students and their families in their own way to ensure that learning continues during the coming weeks and months as a whole nation adjusts to the COVID-19 situation. This is a trying time that will not be easy, but we will do our best to support each other, find new ways to educate and find new ways to learn. All of the dedicated administrators, teachers and staff that work in the schools and agencies of the COSB stand with you and for you.

If you have questions or need support in any way as a student, family member or a friend of a student that has experienced an interruption of services, please contact Joy Harris.
