On October 30th, we were honored to join the White House for their HALLO-READ event, a special day of games, storytime, and meet-and-greets with families from across the country. The Maryland School for the Blind's outreach families got to participate, and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden brought extra magic by reading stories to the children. This memorable day brought smiles, connection, and community! #WhiteHouse #HalloRead #CommunityOutreach #MarylandSchoolForTheBlind

Celebrating Dr. Hoover and the Legacy of the White Cane Technique at MSB! ???? On October 15th, we celebrated White Cane Day on campus with fun activities, giving our students a chance to exercise awareness and safety while using their canes. Did you know that Dr. Richard Hoover, a former Maryland School for the Blind employee, pioneered the "Hoover Cane Technique"? This revolutionary technique has empowered people who are blind and low vision around the world to navigate independently. As we continue to raise awareness during Blindness Awareness Month, we honor Dr. Hoover's lasting legacy and his incredible impact. #WhiteCaneDay #BlindnessAwarenessMonth #Accessibility
