Revises provisions relating to the education of pupils with disabilities. (BDR 34-73)

SB 357 requires Nevada schools to update special education standards for students with visual impairments (including blindness) to include specific Braille instruction guidelines and integrate assistive technology into teaching. It mandates that Individualized Education Program (IEP) teams must provide Braille instruction if requested by parents, ensure access to necessary assistive technology, and prohibit school staff from interfering with students using canes. The bill amends Nevada law (NRS 388.419 and 388.437) to align with federal disability education standards, directly affecting students with visual impairments and their school districts. These changes ensure schools meet concrete federal requirements for inclusive education while prioritizing student-specific needs.
