Our apologies. There is inaccurate information on this page of the Calendar. The statement "School employees can have the monthly fee (approximately $30) taken directly from your paycheck" is inaccurate. It should read "County employees can have the monthly fee (approximately $30) taken directly from his or her paycheck." The version on http://lcps.org/at has been altered to remove the wording altogether.
Our apologies for the misinformation,

leading cause of visual impairment among children and cognizant of the need for
highly qualified interventionists, four state deaf-blind projects embarked on a

Virginia developed and implemented an innovative and successful professional
development program which trained an interdisciplinary team of "CVI Mentors""
