January is Braille Literacy Month. The use of braille in schools is often a topic of discussion and disagreement. There are some that believe braille is no longer needed. Others are firm believers that braille is a key tool for literacy. There's much more at https://brailleworks.com/braille-literacy-month-2016/ and many other sites like http://www.pathstoliteracy.org/…/braille-guidelines-classro…. Do some reading and make your own decision. Please feel free to share your thoughts. That's how change can happen.
