Educational Philosophy and Goals

At Missouri School for the Blind student success is our first and foremost responsibility. Because we understand that every student learns in an individual way and at an individual rate, we differentiate instruction to meet the needs of each learner.

For students whose educational program centers on the Show-Me-Standards, as defined in the Grade-Level-Expectations (GLEs), curriculum-based and on-going assessment determine instructional methods, remediation, enrichment and pacing through the curriculum. The GLEs are designed to meet a wide range of students needs; however, each course may be further differentiated through the IEP process to meet individual student needs.
