Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired

About Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired

VISION
All Texas students who are blind, visually impaired, or DeafBlind, including those with additional disabilities, will have high quality educational opportunities at the TSBVI campus and in their home district; empowering them to lead productive and fulfilling lives.

MISSION
We serve as a leading center of expertise and resources, working in partnership with schools, families, communities, and organizations to transform educational
outcomes for students, ages birth to 22, who are blind, visually impaired, or DeafBlind, including those with additional disabilities.

PHILOSOPHY
We believe in the strength, competence, and potential for independence of students who are blind, visually impaired, or DeafBlind, including those with additional disabilities. All staff at TSBVI demonstrate commitment as a team to foster and celebrate these attributes every day.

We believe that our important mission, established by the people of Texas through our legislature, is to serve all students in the state through collaboration and partnership with families and local educational teams. By doing so, TSBVI ensures that Texas as a whole receives the greatest value for its investment in the promising future of these students.

We believe that the extraordinary expertise related to visual impairment and blindness developed at TSBVI since its founding in 1856 continues to grow in its leadership for the entire state. We are committed to using this expertise for innovations that will eliminate barriers to learning through instruction in all areas of the Core and the Expanded Core Curriculum.

We believe that the State of Texas has established a statewide educational system for these students that is widely recognized as among the very best in the nation. TSBVI is honored to play a key role in the achievement of this recognition.
