Thank you for the captions/voiceover. I am beginning to learn ASL and seeing the same ideas in three different ways is really informative. And YES! Deaf schools are SO important!! Wonderful stories in the video. I think every Deaf person should have the opportunity to attend a Deaf school.
My daughter is deaf and I feel there isn't enough deaf schools NOW! The deaf school here in Texas is maybe 3 to 4 hours away and I just cannot send her away. She's in a public school which she absolutely loves and I want her to grow up and know the real world because she will be around a lot of hearing people. But I would definitely send her to a deaf school if they had more of them, closer to home.
Maybe you could talk to the deaf school about summer camp programs and try to find deaf events in your area to bring your daughter too. Even if it's a mostly adult deaf coffee night people will respect you for trying to involve your daughter in the Deaf community
She has a cochlear implant that she's been wearing since 2011 and she hears well, but is going thru the process of learning everything and going to speech therapy. The cochlear was her choice and she loves it, I will definitely look into more things to get my daughter involved with the deaf community... she only knows about school and there is no one else in my family that's deaf so it is very difficult for her to even just hang out and do things with them... kind of like they're intimidated by her being deaf??? Not sure if u understand that.... but thank you. I will start my search.
Hello! My friend and I are hearing but we have a passion for ASL! We are trying to learn more!!! I LOVE ASL and I loved listening to these stories in this video!
Thank you to my professor at the University of FL for assigning watching this for our ASL 2 class. I will share this and the importance of maintaining residential schools across our nation (and in other countries where they have been established, too.)
I am glad you add captions especially for hearing parents as well as general hearing public. The set up captions is a bit weird and not in the standard how we Deaf and hard of hearing people read. Can you make it better?
Hi I am. an interpreter for the deaf in Buchanan - South of Liberia struggling to teach some deaf kids. How can i get some material support for my voluntary work. Over here education for people with disability are left with charity. Any suggestion? Jackson in Liberia
Hello Jackson. Thank you for reaching out. Try to get in touch with World Federation of the Deaf (wfdeaf.org/). By the way, what kind of materials are you looking for?
Thanks for the response. I am looking for technical support in the form of receiving volunteer teachers to help improve the young school standard. Materials such as special number books, sign spelling book, visual aids (DVD players and disks of primary educational importance), and cash to enable us construct school facility. There are more kids far and near Buchanan where we run the school wishing to be in school but accommodation is a hindrance for them since I have nowhere to host students. Right now, the school is squatting on a church property. You you can see lack of support has caused to offline for months. This is why I am replying to your email late. The only financial assistance i get comes from an American friend, Mr. Richard Johnson in the United States. With his help, i have ben able to bring in to volunteers teacher, and now in the process of legalizing the entity by next week before getting to organizations like the World Federation of the Deaf. Thank you so much and you may please ask anything. Jackson N. Willie
Hello! Why don't you get in touch with Gallaudet University's Education and/or International Studies program and see if you both can develop an internship? Some students will love the opportunity to teach abroad and develop materials with you and your team. Keep in mind, it is best to have native signers on your team (from your home country and s/he co-lead with you on this project as well). Kind regards, Elsie Stecker
Inclusion isn't always the best environment. IMO it'd be better, if they want Deaf kids and hearing kids learning side by side, to have schools that are like 50-50 Deaf/hearing instead of having one Deaf kid in a class full of hearing kids.

We are proud to provide captions and audio support to Joshua Beckman's video: "Deaf Schools" - Deaf Schools (with audio and captions)

Marisol Davalos Does your daughter hear well with hearing aids

This was amazing thank you so much ❤❤❤
I think the word "Homes" ( 3:20 ) refers to the deaf schools, because that's what they see them as( 0:26 ).

Proud of class 2011 @ MSAD
They shut down the deaf school in nc and it very sad
this is awesome ! :D the guy at 0.48 kinda make me uncomfortable with his expressions though...it didn't match what he was saying, i got confused.
His expression was indicating that he was working frantically because he was only given a couple of days.
Powerful

Tell Drewry Secondary School for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing
Hello Sourde beaucoup the regarde toute
You don't realize it's not just you who's homes are disappearing. This matter is happening EVERY WHERE in this country!!! Just FYI
