Description:: OUR HISTORY Dallas Services began in January 1949 for two visually impaired children who wanted to laugh, play and study with other children but due to their lack of sight, were not eligible for public school. Alfred Sack and his wife decided they wanted their 6 year-old visually-impaired daughter to live at home rather than send her to the residential school in Austin, Texas. They believed that blind children should receive the love and care of their own parents in their home, something that is impossible when the children are sent away to a special school. The Dallas School for Blind Children started with only two children but a year later, the number grew to 10 when a preschool for visually-impaired children was opened. The school also hosted a monthly meeting to provide guidance and support to parents of blind children.
