My opinions about deaf schools and public schools. Link to list of schools for the deaf, http://clerccenter.gallaudet.edu/InfoToGo/schools-usa.html First I wanted to show you somethings from my childhood, (shows girls scout brownie apparel) I was in girls scouts at age 7 to 9, with group of my deaf friends. I had fun with my friends with girls scout. I also show, Gallaudet banner, I got it from my friend. I have never been there before though but would love to visit one day. I used to go to nebraska school for the deaf, (I show the letter N) I enjoyed NSD but I had to join Iowa school for the deaf after NSD closed. After I left Iowa school for the deaf, I moved to Oregon, I went to Grants pass high school for my senior year. (Shows letter G from the high school. I graduated in year 2002. My high school mascot was, (shows mini flag, it a cavemen) here the link to the school, http://www.grantspass.k12.or.us/SectionIndex.asp?SectionID=102 the school was newly built 9 years ago since they torn down the old building. The buildings are awesome!!! Alright now back to my topic about deaf schools and public schools. I used to go to Prescott elementary school with deaf program in it. I liked both, deaf school and public school, depending on situation. Public schools classrooms tend to be big sized like 20 to 30 students, they do have interpreters and plus there is usually a class time where all deaf kids get together like a homeroom and review about the day in all other classes and do fun things, Deaf school tend to be small class, about 3 to 8 students at a time. I like small classes better personally. Public schools, u have to worry to make sure u have an interpreter for ur class, while with deaf school, u already have a teacher who signs. Public schools, u interact with hearing and deaf students and u can communicate however way you want by just talking or talk and sign or just sign. with Deaf schools, You interact with only Deaf / Hard Of Hearing students. It a deaf culture and community at deaf schools also it required that we all sign at the schools. It does depend on some schools though, I know there are some oral deaf school where u only allowed to speak and lip read. Public schools don't have dorms for kids to stay at after school. Deaf schools have dorms for kids to stay at if they live far away from the school or wanted to stay at dorm to interact with deaf students. Dorms are great, it allow the kids to interact with each other especially deaf kids who only have hearing family. Like me, I am only deaf kid in my hearing family so it was a great advantage for me to stay at dorms to allow me to interact with other deaf kids... So I enjoyed staying at dorm but same time I missed my family too. Some kids at deaf schools are day students where they just go home right after school. At dorms, house parents try to keep us busy by doing different things like going out, doing different things at dorms and we get to go to teen center on campus to hang out with all students. I like both, deaf school and public school in different ways, with deaf schools, I can socialize with deaf students, smaller classmate numbers, teacher signs, so don't have to try focus on 2 different people, interpreter and teacher at same time. Alright so I would like your feedbacks, comments, or your experiences so feel free to leave a comment about Deaf school and public school. Thanks for watching my vlog... (Less)
