[Tn-talk] Schools

[Peter Donahue]

Hello again Ann Marie and listers,

    Let me not forget about Michael Seay. He's the President of the NFB of
Tennessee and can assist you as well. He works this list so I'm sure he'll
contact you himself.

    Have you contacted Heather Field or Lev Williams? Heather is in
Nashville and is the National Organization of Parents of Blind Children
contact in Tennessee and can probably give you more information about the
vision programs in the various Tennessee school districts.

    Lev Williams taught and directed programs for blind children in the
Memphis School District and can assist you as well. I have copied both of
these people on this message so they can get in touch with you. Hope this
helps.

Hi Jana!!  I'm not too familiar with Tennessee, I just figured if I can find
a good school system, and Publix stores so my husband can transfer, then we
would go from there.  I don't know why, but I'm having a hard time finding
info on the internet about the vision programs in the different school
systems.  Here's a stupid question for you, does the weather change from
Western TN to Eastern TN??

Thanks!!
