    Summary:

    Searches for information about residential schools for the blind in Canada are barren and missing from search results. Yes, there are lots of results for residential school experiences of other groups of Canadian children but once again people who are blind have been ignored... the lack of information about the experiences of blind children in a residential school setting is the motivation for making my research public. . Originally I conducted this research as a way of understanding the origins of my educational experiences as a child. It helped me to come to terms with what I had endured at the . Halifax School for the Blind. Understanding why my childhood had been so different than those who attended public school who I met after graduation from the Halifax school for the Blind was so different.
