What Our Teachers are Saying

ASL is their language. That gives them the self-esteem and they have a foundation then to support their English development.

Jennifer Ellis
Work Education Teacher, Transition Needs Team

Every deaf child can learn just the same as hearing children can. I think that is one problem is that often there are misconceptions about deaf children’s abilities.

Jane Mulholland
Former Superintendent, WSD

We know that learning is a social activity. It’s social in nature. People learn from each other all the time. Children learn the fastest from their peers.

Shauna Bilyeu
Superintendent, WSD

It is very crucial that the children have access to language development. A natural acquisition of language right from the very beginning.

Pamela Whitney
Pre-School Teacher

A strong language foundation is very important for their success in life. Research shows that deaf students who have American Sign Language skills are then more successful in English.

April McArthur
ASL-English Bilingual Program Service Director
