We encourage them to try new things, to make new friends, to expand their horizons. Many of these students receive specialized support services from The Maryland School for the Blind. The majority of the students on our Baltimore campus are blind or visually impaired and multiply disabled. There is a very special challenge in providing services for these children and meeting their special needs, but it is a challenge we meet each and every day. Our dedicated staff of professionals use their expertise, experience and caring each day to help our students be the best that they can be and achieve their full potential.
People are surprised to learn that our students compete in swim meets, bowling, wrestling and track.
They are independent, confident, happy children. We never forget that our students have many specialized and unique needs. Most importantly, we never forget they are also children, youth and young adults.
