Education Services for Blind & Visually Impaired Children
Working hand in hand with Maine's Division for the Blind and Visually Impaired (DBVI), our services are directed to the blind and visually impaired population, ages birth through 21 years old. Our goal is to assist in meeting the educational needs of the student through consultation and/or direct services in his/her education or home setting. How the Program Works After receiving a referral, our teachers assess the student’s functional vision, reviews the educational implication of the visual impairment and recommend a service plan to the child's team. For school-aged students, the Pupil Evaluation Team (PET) determines the type and amount of services to be included in the Individualized Education Plan (IEP) or 504 plan. Recommendations for the pre-school child are made to the Early Childhood Team (ECT) and services are identified in the Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP). Types of Services Offered
