πŸ’™πŸ’› Back to school fun in Residential Life!

TSB residential students kicked off the school year with an evening of food, games, music and plenty of time to connect at our Back-to-School Cookout!

A special thank you to the Delta Gamma women who joined us for the fun and helped serve dinner, lead activities and spend time with our students. From karaoke and air hockey to face painting and good food, it was a great way to welcome everyone back. 🐯

Here’s to another great year in TSB Residential Life!

Today, Tennessee School for the Blind pauses to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to honor the courage, service and sacrifice shown in the days that followed.

A small moment of connection can make a big impact. πŸ’™

We loved seeing this Indianapolis police officer use American Sign Language to connect with a young Colts fan who is deaf at Lucas Oil Stadium.

Accessibility, communication and belonging matter β€” everywhere.

A great moment to celebrate alongside our friends at Tennessee Schools for the Deaf. 🀟

πŸΎπŸ’™πŸ’› Love on a Leash is back at TSB!

We were excited to welcome our friends from Love on a Leash for their first TSB visit of the school yearβ€”and to spend some time with two returning favorites: Odin the Golden Retriever and Winston, a 155-pound St. Bernard!

Our students had plenty of questions. When do the dogs begin learning? What do they learn? How do they help people? Their handlers shared more about the dogs and their work while students enjoyed plenty of time visiting, petting and getting to know them.

And we learned one very important fact about Winston: this 155-pound St. Bernard loves bananas! 🍌🐢

Thank you to Love on a Leash for spending time with our Tigers. They promised they'll be back, and we'll be happy to see them! 🐯🐾

πŸ“šπŸ’™πŸ’›Today is International Literacy Day!

TSB students recently gathered in the library as our librarian read How NOT to Make a Jelly Sandwich by Ross Burach.

Students listened, laughed and enjoyed time together centered around a good book. At TSB, literacy is about more than readingβ€”it’s about exploring stories, sharing experiences and building a love of learning. πŸ―πŸ“–

πŸ’™πŸ’› Celebrating Labor Day and the value of learning through work!

Through TSB’s Career and Technical Education (CTE) program, students gain hands-on experience in real-world work environments throughout the school year.

At Donelson CafΓ©, students have opportunities to work alongside a TSB educational assistant who guides them through workplace tasks, communication and other skills that build confidence and prepare them for future employment.

As we recognize Labor Day, we’re proud to highlight the work-based learning experiences helping our Tigers build skills for the future. 🐯
