Beyond These Walls, an extraordinary new movie about our school, follows three OSB students who are
featured on the cover of this annual report. The film shows Tashea, Franklin, and Douglas in relation to
their parents, other relatives, and friends; in relation to their sighted peers; to Overbrook School for the
Blind; and most especially in relation to themselves. It is also, and very importantly, about the journey
that their families are traveling with them. It is about their strengths, resilience, fears, sadness, and
happiness. It is about their transitions.
For more about the movie, please see Highlights.
The title and theme of this annual report, Transition: Here and Beyond, is in part inspired by the movie.
Both movie and report provide a glimpse of how our school encourages students to change and grow,
making the most of their time here, so that they have the greatest opportunity to experience active and
fulfilling lives here and beyond.
For our school and staff to help the students grow, change, and move forward, we ourselves must
continue on a similarly important transition path, sometimes keeping up with the students and other
times leading the way.
Our vision and mission statements remain as they have been, but we imagine and are working toward
improving upon the excellence for which Overbrook School for the Blind is known. We envision our
school and staff transitioning—by leading students and, very likely, other schools for the blind to use,
adapt, and apply what we are doing.
The transition vision encompasses expanding and diversifying our service area, growing our leadership
roles, especially in technology, and encouraging and supporting OSB education staff to continue their
great work both on campus and in surrounding communities. We will continue to improve the
accessibility and viability of our campus and all of its facilities. On behalf of all of our students—visually
impaired, blind, deafblind, and visually impaired with other challenges—we will maintain and build upon
the reputations of our school and staff as leaders in specialized education.
This all might seem overly ambitious, but it is not. Forward looking, yes, but eminently sensible and
doable.
For instance, we have a large and well-equipped campus, a solid financial foundation and a talented,
motivated staff and board. With additional funding, we can serve more students on campus and off.
Therefore, we look to expand and diversify.
More than ten years ago, we were ahead of the technology curve compared to most specialized and
mainstream schools. We are now building upon that foundation to assess and acquire newly available
specialized and mainstream technology that best serves the needs of today’s students. This, of course,
includes providing the appropriate training for teachers, paraeducators, and students. Additionally, we
continue to build, improve, preserve, and retrofit the campus to ensure maximum access to everyone.
Schools are all about transition. At Overbrook, we assist our students’ transitions through the early
phases of their lives while we transition the school to meet the ever-changing opportunities and
challenges of providing the best education for each child. Transition is not new to Overbrook. It is
something at which we have excelled and will continue to excel for future generations of students.

Transition
A passing from one condition, form, stage, activity, or place to another
—Webster’s New World College Dictionary
[Free standing quotation: “. . . any area of instruction
relates to transition in some way.” —Teacher]
[Free standing quotation: “No one ever told me I couldn’t do something because I was visually
impaired.”—Bob Ashbridge, class of 1967]
[There are four pictures for this section of the narrative: 1. two women working with a youngster who is
in good spirits and laughing; some readers will recognize that the women are therapists—a PT and an
OT; 2. a classroom scene with students using braillers and education staff in attendance; 3. an infant with
amazingly large eyes, who is looking at the camera and being held by a teacher, who is smiling and
looking at the infant; and 4. three young students who are in wheel chairs with one staff member per
student, smiling and interacting with the students.]
Transition is an inevitable and necessary part of everyone’s life, regardless of financial status, gender,
race, or ethnicity, whether the person is blind or sighted. From person to person, from circumstance to
circumstance, the details change, but the principle remains the same.
Imagine you’re the parent of an infant who cannot see the bright, stimulating mobile that is above the crib
and out of reach. What might you do to make the mobile accessible? Or you’re a young child or a middle
or high school student who can’t read print on paper or on the computer screen? What skills might you
develop that will help you to keep up with your sighted peers? What technology can be made available to
you? How do you continue to learn everything you need to know, all that you want to know, before you
graduate? For that matter, if you cannot see, how do you learn to walk from one class to another, how do
you take public transportation to go to work, visit friends, or just go out on your own?
A sampling of good news for parents and their children who are visually impaired includes the following:
Parents could lower the mobile and equip it to produce sound(s) when moved about, appealing to an
infant’s tactile and auditory senses. Young children as well as elementary, middle school, high school, and
school to work students, throughout all the school years, learn braille and the computer programs that
make it possible for them to access information on their own, holding themselves to the same
expectations that society has for their sighted peers. While doing all of this, they can work with
orientation and mobility (O&M) instructors to learn to travel safely and independently.
This is a lot of work for students, parents, and educators, work that has within it many transitions, much
potential for growth, and many opportunities. OSB’s Expanded Core Curriculum is designed to meet the
special needs of our students—who are blind or deafblind, or have low vision, and, perhaps have
additional issues—so that they can experience the well rounded, customized education that they desire
and deserve.
A well rounded education includes the traditional courses and activities experienced by their sighted
peers in public schools plus classes in such areas as braille, listening skills, concept development,
independent living, recreation and leisure skills, career education, technology, assistive technology,
sensory efficiency skills, ASL and other communication systems and devices, and orientation and
mobility, all in accordance with each student’s IEP (Individual Education Plan).
For families of infants who are blind or visually impaired (birth to three years in most counties, birth to
five in Philadelphia) OSB’s Early Intervention Outreach (EIO) program works off campus—in the families’
homes and communities.
In her professional capacity, one teacher sums up the EIO experience this way: “Each family is different,
needs are ever changing, and new referrals come to us all the time. All the families have the same basic
need—to learn to do everything they can to give their babies a good start in life; and all families are
different. We teach parents to teach their children during this protracted transition time, we help them to
become self advocates, and we have the pleasure of seeing them experience a new found empowerment.”
Although EIO offers a summer workshop for a limited number of families, for most of the infants who first
come to our school through the program, their first on campus experience happens, if they are admitted,
through the Early Childhood program.
Here
What happens on the OSB campus as students enter the grounds for the first time, stay for a while
(sometimes a long while), and eventually move beyond OSB, taking with them what they have learned
and accomplished?
[Free standing quote: “I love this school. Overbrook School for the Blind gave me the strength to face the
challenges of the future.” —Jay Doudna, class of 1967 and co-recipient of the 2012 Alumni of the Year
Award.]
[Three pictures: 1. a channel 6 (ABC) reporter interviewing a young student in the campus picnic area; 2.
a group of students standing in a classroom with their teacher and paraeducator; the students are
holding signs that say “Words Matter”; and 3. a staff member helps a student plant a tree while another
student and staff member look on.]
Here, at Overbrook School for the Blind, as at schools everywhere, the first day for a new student or
returning student who might have studied elsewhere is a staggering transition for her or him as well as
the student’s family and the OSB staff. Each student brings his or her unique needs, talents,
accomplishments, and dreams, which require staff—teachers and paraprofessionals especially—to
change or modify their approach to working with the class. We are a family—the OSB family—after all,
and just like a family that brings home a new born, or welcomes home a returning daughter or son, or
rescues a puppy, everyone makes adjustments, everyone’s life is changed, everyone experiences his or
her particular transition at the same time that the family experiences a common or cumulative transition.
Speaking about the transition from EIO to Early Childhood, as it is experienced by the student, a teacher
says that among the often heard comments from our students who have exited Early Intervention
Outreach and entered Early Childhood are I’m going to a big boys’ school and I’m going to my sister’s
school.
The teacher adds, “They may not know the word ‘transition,’ but they do know that there is going to be a
change in their little lives.”
Taken together, the observations of teachers from Elementary and Middle School speak to the ways that
all programs ease the stress students experience when transitioning to the next program. Older students
welcome the incoming students into the new program, and O&M instruction might start ahead of time so
they can begin learning the route to the new classroom. A teacher who will be welcoming new students
touches base with the previous teacher to get an advanced feel for the needs of each new student.
Remembering that this kind of transition is experienced by parents too, the programs welcome them
with open house events that include tours of the new program, question and answer sessions, and slide
shows.
Talking about transition with the student and family in the IEP year during which the student turns 14 is
required. One teacher says, “For many families, it is the first time they have thought about their child
leaving OSB. We often see tears. Other families feel that age 21 is so far away that they can avoid the
issue.”
The teacher continues, “We give the parents a survey, supplied by the Transition department. The
questions involve but are not limited to what the students like to do: do they like to work in groups or
prefer to work on their own? have they expressed hopes and dreams for the future? do they have an
interest or hobby that could lead to a career?”
Another teacher adds, “Pretty much any area of instruction relates to transition in some way. It all really
begins in Early Childhood and Elementary. Students have classroom jobs, pre-voc class, and on campus
work very early on. And the other areas, such as self care, O&M, communication, social skills, reading, and
mathematics of course start early. So, transition instruction really begins as soon as the child arrives at
OSB.”
Beyond
One of the most obvious (in the best of ways) transition components on our campus is the activity
emanating from our White Hall transition apartments, where qualified young women and men from the
High School and School to Work programs concentrate on adult life skills. They take responsibility for
laundry, cooking, shopping, cleaning and in general managing their own lives with the kind of supervision
that supports and respects individuality.
[Free standing quote: “Some of my favorite memories: Living in the White Hall apartment, being
independent, working on transition. Good friendships and independence.”—Jude Vogelman, class of
2011. This quote is accompanied by a picture of Mr. Vogelman standing beside Director Kitzhoffer.]
[Free standing quote: “I built on the foundation provided by Overbrook staff.”—Mary Smith, class of 1952
and co-recipient of the 2012 Alumni of the Year Award. This quote is accompanied by a picture of Ms.
Smith, back to the camera, as she reads in braille the names of OSB donors on wall plaques. Her name is
just above the name that she is reading.]
[A third picture rounds out the Beyond section of the narrative: it shows Board President Wheeler and
Director Kitzhoffer flanking a graduate, who is in her graduation cap and gown and holding her diploma.]
What else happens in White Hall? According to Dael Cohen, Coordinator of Transition Services, “For
many, it’s their first separate place, away from the family. Each student needs to take responsibility for
his or her own budget and to socialize in an appropriately adult way with a roommate. And—this is very
important—they need to have fun!”
“We owe it to the students,” she adds, “to be realistic with them about what lies ahead. It is in sync with
our mission statement to develop and deliver education that enhances the options available for persons
with visual impairments and other challenges so that they have the greatest opportunity to experience
active and fulfilling lives.”
Through academics, life skills training, mainstream and access technology, and extracurricular activities
(notably music and sports)—all of which foster growth through our students’ many transitions—we
prepare them to move beyond the walls of Overbrook and to find their place in the world.
See Highlights on pages 8-10 for more about our sports and music programs.
Highlights
Every year, there are more highlights to the life of our school, to the “here and beyond” transition
experiences of our students than can be imagined. What follows is an attempt to capture representative
on-going activities (music, sports, academics) as well as representative endeavors that are new (a
documentary movie and Transition Vocational Initiative).
A Movie, a Concert, three Students, their Families, and a School
[Picture caption: Franklin and his family. (They are seated at a table during the dinner that preceded the
showing of the Beyond These Walls).]
[Picture caption: at the screening in our auditorium of Beyond These Walls (1st row) Tashea (2nd from
left) with family members and Douglas (horizontal striped shirt) with part of his family.]
The movie, Beyond These Walls (BTW), is a documentary about three students, their families, the annual
OSB Holiday Concert of December 2011, and—through the students, the families, and the concert—it is
ultimately about all of the OSB extended family.
BTW was produced by 15 Villanova students under the professional mentorship of their faculty and
through Villanova’s Social Justice Documentary Film program. It features interviews and voiceovers of
OSB administrators and staff. But the stars of the movie are OSB students Douglas, Franklin, Tashea, and
their families.
They are all real people remembering a past that was sometimes confusing, working in the present to
create meaningful lives for themselves, transitioning day-by-day into their individual and familial futures.
The audience at the OSB campus premier was visibly moved by the loving determination of parents who
had to learn the best ways to help and motivate their children and by the children themselves who
continue to rise to the occasion. Tashea knows that her father requires her to be the absolute best that
she can be. Douglas’s parents expect him to be resilient and positive. Franklin, encouraged by his parents,
embraces his natural musical talent.
When information is available about future screenings of BTW, it will appear in the Towers newsletter and
on our website www.obs.org.
Academics
[Stand alone quote: “I love numbers and problem solving.” —Current Student]
If you could visit our classrooms on a typical school day, you might be astonished that so much is
happening.
In a High School class, the students are studying Shakespeare’s Macbeth. They are reading the play at
home and then reading it together, acting it out with their voices, as they sit around a table. (These same
students, earlier in the semester, read the classic Holocaust memoir, Night by Elie Wiesel, and
corresponded with the author.)
Two other groups of students write to Marine Lance Corporal Blaise Vogelman, when he is stationed in
Afghanistan. (His mother is OSB’s Parent Liaison and his brother is an OSB alumnus.) The students share
some of the details of their lives with him, ask questions about his life, share Philadelphia stories, and let
him know that he is not forgotten. Lance Corporal Vogelman shares the letters with his fellow Marines
and when he returns stateside visits the students on campus.
In a Middle School classroom students are learning algebra, challenged and supported by an exacting and
supportive teacher. In an Early Childhood room, children are playing and having fun—writing their
names, printing their names, making decisions, and exercising motor skills.
School to Work and Elementary students, separately and in great detail, are learning about a pivotal time
in 20th century American history by honoring and studying the life and times of Martin Luther King, Jr.
Students in all of these classes use mainstream technology, adaptive technology, braille, large print, and
access technology as needed. As learners who are visually impaired, they have special needs, which we
recognize and help them to negotiate. They and their teachers are also special in the sense of
extraordinary, creative, and committed.
Transition Vocational Initiative
[Stand alone quote: “At first, TVI seemed scary. So much responsibility. But it was fun and I learned so
much.” —Current Student]
OSB’s White Hall transition apartments were put to additional use in the summer by the newly
established Transition Vocational Initiative (TVI), funded by Pennsylvania Bureau of Blindness and Visual
Services (BVS) under its Director David De Notaris.
From Sunday, July 24th, 2011, to Friday, August 5th, 2011, nine well qualified OSB students from the High
School and School to Work programs lived on campus, learning and polishing the kinds of skills that
everyone needs to become and remain gainfully employed.
With maximum freedom to learn by doing, and under the guidance of our education staff, the students
concentrated on vocational awareness, resumé building, and self-advocacy. They traveled on Septa and
met successful workers, alumni, and business owners. Of particular interest to the students were
successful workers and business owners who are blind or visually impaired and, often, OSB alumni. The
first TVI summer complemented Early Childhood’s 12-month program, Early Intervention Outreach’s
Summer Workshop, and the Extended School Year that benefits our Elementary, Middle School, School to
Work, and High School students.
All of this, of course, is in addition to the many transition opportunities and activities that we already
provide during the regular school year, especially through the White Hall Independent Living Program.
Music and Sports and So Much More
[Picture caption: Scene from 2011 Winter Concert. (Foreground: a student singing ; background:
sparkling lights and other students, in soft focus and against a black background.]
[Picture caption: Cheerleaders taking a well deserved break. (Three students in cheerleading uniforms
seated and smiling.]
[Picture caption: View of the goalball landscape. (In the lower left of the picture, one student who might
have just sent the ball to the other side or might be ready to defend his goal; in the upper right we see the
ball; this is photographed through the goal that is behind the student athlete.]
The musical and performance standards for all our concerts are very high, and the music program has
many facets, including, but not limited to classroom work, off campus performances, and bringing other
professional musicians to campus to perform for everyone, to interact with and instruct students, to
perform with them, and to bring additional joy to an already vibrant campus.
The concerts are inclusive. If you are a student who is old enough to be on the stage and you are willing to
work hard, to do your absolute best, there is room for you. Jim Palmer, OSB Music Teacher, and Chris
Sapienza, OSB Choir Director—as professionals who both “do” and “teach”—know the importance of
individual growth in everyone’s life, of changing for the better, of working to the best of your abilities,
and of the need for mentors.
Mr. Sapienza talks about the importance of growth for students and for staff. “Even when a student’s
changes are subtle,” he says, “as teachers we are affected by these changes and experience our own
transitions. We all have transitions in our lives. Here, at OSB, we’re finding them together.”
Mr. Palmer emphasizes that OSB’s environment has a unique role in the lives of our students. “It allows
them to truly blossom and excel in a manner that would not be possible in other educational settings.” He
points out that OSB offers a full range of activities—including music, sports, student government,
independent living, and work experience.
Like music at OSB, sports is fun, broadening, and carries the capability of being transformative. Take for
instance a recent graduate, who wanted to wrestle, but really couldn’t do it. He was welcomed by coaches
and team mates alike to try, and when that didn’t work, he became an assistant, working hard and taking
pride in his accomplishments.
Another young man, still a student here, came naturally to the wrestling squad. Talented, agile, and
strong, he discovered that he is better at this sport than he ever imagined.
Wrestling might be the sport for which we have been best known over the years, but it is not alone in the
central place it occupies in OSB’s past, present, and future.
The cheerleaders are phenomenal, not because they are blind or visually impaired, but because they excel
at what they do. Of course, like all the athletes at our school, they are mentored by experienced, dedicated
coaches, who work with them in addition to performing many other educational and mentoring duties.
All OSB coaches are teachers certified in visual impairment; and paraeducator assistant coaches have a
background in the sport they are coaching.
Swimming and track and field are major activities. An alumnus, with superb athletic skills, was a regular
winner at swim meets, but he and his team mates were double winners, because after Peter easily
completed his lap(s), he went to a corner of the pool deck and cheered everyone in the water. Runners of
various abilities are all winners in this inclusive atmosphere. Some are gifted athletes, others awesome
competitors; and all are transitioning, changing, improving in ways they might not have previously
imagined.
In goalball everyone is equal because none of the athletes can see the ball. Whether blind, sighted, or
somewhat visually impaired, all players wear sleep shades that admit no light. A goal is set up at each end
of the gym, with opposing groups of three players facing the opposition while defending the goal. One
side serves the three-pound ball that has a bell inside by throwing it along the gym floor with as much
speed and power as she or he can muster. The audience is silent, and the defending team must discover
where the swiftly moving ball (as fast as 10-40 miles an hour) is, stop it from entering the net they are
defending, and send it back to the opposition. What a wonderful concentration and confidence builder in
addition to being a fierce workout.
“Here” the music program and sports program are all that they can be and more. The students grow
through the activities, transitioning through triumphs and setbacks as they prepare for all that awaits
them “beyond” Overbrook.
