January is National Braille Literacy Month, a time to raise awareness about the importance of braille—the six‑dot code invented by Louis Braille (whose birthday is celebrated internationally on World Braille Day, January 4), which enables people with visual impairments to read and write letters, symbols, punctuation, and even music.  At Wilson, four students are learning braille, and we recognize their efforts and promote braille literacy among peers during the month of January.

January is National Braille Literacy Month.  The purpose is to bring awareness to the importance of braille, a code used for reading and writing for people with visual impairments.  World Braille Day is internationally celebrated every January 4th, which is Louis Braille’s birthday.  He invented the braille code which is consists of 6 raised dots.  These dots can be used to make every letter, symbol, punctuation mark…even music notes.
