Our neighbors at Perkins School for the Blind, in Watertown, had to think quickly about ensuring their students still received a quality education and maintained community when they went remote. A sense of touch is fundamental to those without a sense of sight. So how did Perkins students, teachers and parents manage in a world that was suddenly socially distant? ....

Central Bucks student advocates, connects with peers to share world of visually impaired


Titus Elementary School student Krish Rastogi-Wilson views the world a lot differently than his peers. Coming into the world with little to no vision changed his perspective. 
But now, at just 9, he s helping others see, and understand, his view of things as he navigates school, camp and more, advocating for himself and others with visual impairment. 
Krish has come a long way in his years of living with cortical visual impairment, also known as cerebral visual impairment or CVI. The brain-based condition, which impacts the eye’s connection to the brain, is the leading cause of visual impairment in children in the United States. ....
