NEBRASKA CITY, Neb. (AP) — A Nebraska City school for the visually impaired is set to celebrate its 140th anniversary.

The Nebraska Center for the Education of Children who are Blind or Visually Impaired will celebrate by holding an open house Sunday to showcase its facilities.

The center works with school districts to assess the needs of students, which can include daily living skills, learning Braille, learning how to use the Internet and job exploration. The school serves about 800 students, ages 5 to 21, from across the state.

Students may stay at the school for a day, a week or longer depending on their individual programs. The center, which is open year-round, also works with younger children to assess their needs before they enter school.
