Mr. Hill was surprised with a pair of EnChroma glasses for people who are color blind.
"At the beginning of each school year, I tell students about my color deficiency. It is a great ice-breaker and generates a lot of questions and discussions about it," Hill told the district.
Designed with a filter that optimizes the way a user sees over 10,000 natural and man-made colors, the glasses correct protanopia, the most common form of color blindness.

They set a goal and were able to pay for the glasses. The teacher was able to see the colors of the balloons for the first time.
