The Maryland School for the Deaf was established in 1868 as a free
public residential school for deaf and hard-of-hearing children who
reside in the State. The Governor appoints the 30 members of the
Board of Visitors for indefinite terms (Acts 1867, chap. 247; 1868,
chap. 409; 1880, chap. 19; 1916, chap. 76; 1957, chap. 148 as amended).
The school offers an academic education similar to that of public
schools and in addition provides thorough instruction in speech read-
ing, speech, auditory training, and use of individual hearing aids. It
offers vocational training to boys in industrial arts, printing and wood-
working, and gives training in homemaking courses to girls. Extra-
curricmar activities in athletics, scouts, social activities, and clubs are
planned for all students. Vocational rehabilitation services are avail-
able to all graduates who seek jobs, special vocational training, or
higher education. The enrollment for 1963-64 was 250.

The Maryland Workshop for the Blind is a State-aided institution
established by the General Assembly by Chapter 566, Acts of 1908.
Control is vested in a board of five trustees; three are appointed by
the Governor, with Senate approval, and two are elected by the Board
of Directors of the Maryland School for the Blind.
The Workshop operates through divisions. The Industrial Division
manufactures sterile wrappers and surgical drapes for use in hospital
operating rooms; mailing bags and mops; canes and repairs chairs,
sub-contract work—assembly, packing, packaging and product manu-
facturing. The Home Service Division provides teaching for the blind
in their homes and aids them in their personal adjustment to blind-

vending stands in many of the public buildings of the State. The
