SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Virginia Schools for the Deaf and the Blind. Changes the name of the Virginia School for the Deaf and the Blind at Hampton to the Virginia School for the Deaf, Blind and Multi-Disabled at Hampton to reflect more accurately its mission. Currently, the Virginia School for the Deaf and the Blind at Hampton and the Virginia School for the Deaf and the Blind at Staunton are referenced in the Code together as the Virginia Schools for the Deaf and the Blind. The operational control of the schools is the responsibility of the Board of Education, which establishes the rules and regulations for the governance of the schools. The schools' activities and educational programs are administered, supervised, and directed by the Superintendent of Public Instruction. This bill alters the name of the school at Hampton and does not affect the powers and duties of the Board of Education and the Superintendent of Public Instruction relative to the control, administration, supervision, and direction of the schools.
