"I can't see very well and they would be signing back to me," student Johnathan Kirk said. "We can't have a very good communication."
Some students at the Governor Morehead School are fully blind, while some can see a little.
"There are some counties that have no services at all for these kids," his mother Shannon Kirk said. "They need a place to go and they deserve a good education."

Supporters of the Morehead School said the savings would be the same if the state closed one of the deaf schools instead, and sent all of those students to one location.
The National Federation of the Blind said part of the problem was the schools fall under Human Services, which faces more budget cuts.
"These children are not inmates," Gary Ray with the National Federation of the Blind said. "They are not patients. They should be treated as students in part of an educational system so that is part of the problem."
"If you do this, it's going to reduce the effectiveness of the education for people with disabilities and that's going to prevent them from succeeding and prevent the economy from getting better to some degree," Kirk said.
To make sure lawmakers see and hear their message, supporters of the school for the blind will be rallying outside the Legislative building on Wednesday.
