Welcome to Teaching Students with Visual Impairments

State Special Education AgenciesA child with a visual impairment is one whose vision, even with correction, adversely impacts a child's educational performance. Although similar, each state has it's own guidelines for what students are eligible to be identified as a student with a visual impairment. The following is a list of State Special Education Agencies within the Department of Education.
