Merger of blind-deaf schools to be discussed

LIBERTY — The superintendent of the Ohio School for the Deaf will be in town Saturday to review what has become a controversial plan to combine his school and the Ohio State School for the Blind on a single campus.

Dr. Ed Corbett Jr. will address the issue at 7 p.m. at the Holiday Inn MetroPlex on Belmont Avenue. The session is one of a series of nine community meetings he ‘s holding across the state to inform alumni, parents and other interested people about the plan, which appears to have the endorsement of the state government.

Not everyone thinks putting the two schools onto one campus is a good idea.
