Students Attend 4201 Advocacy Day
Four high school students attended 4201 Advocacy Day in Albany on February 11th. The students met with legislators and their staff to discuss the vital role played by the state's eleven 4201 Schools in educating students who are deaf, blind, or severely physically handicapped.
A special thank you to the following legislators and their staff for meeting with our students:
For more than 200 years, the eleven member schools of the 4201 Schools Association have provided special education services to children who are deaf, blind, or severely physically handicapped.
