WI CTR FOR THE BLIND & VISUALLY IMPAIRED

WI Ctr for the Blind & Visually Impaired is a public school that is part of the Wisconsin Dept of Public Instruction school district, located in Janesville, WI.

The Wisconsin Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired (WCBVI), located in Janesville, serves as a vital statewide resource dedicated to providing specialized education and support services for students who are blind or visually impaired. As part of the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, the center operates with a mission to ensure that children across the state—from birth through age 21—have access to the tools, skills, and individualized instruction necessary to achieve independence and academic success.

The WCBVI offers a multi-faceted approach to education, providing both direct instruction for students on their Janesville campus and outreach services that support local school districts throughout Wisconsin. Their comprehensive curriculum emphasizes the "Expanded Core Curriculum," which covers essential skills beyond traditional academics, such as braille literacy, orientation and mobility training, assistive technology proficiency, and daily living skills. By bridging the gap between clinical support and classroom instruction, the center empowers students to reach their full potential and successfully transition into their communities as confident, independent individuals.
