Deaf School or Mainstream Program

He is learning so much more being in a class where they only sign. He does receive speech therapy twice a week for 30 min. We have chosen to do total communication with our children. My husband and I are not deaf nor hard of hearing. The other thing I have noticed since we have put our son into a Deaf School, is that his speech and language is really coming out.

The other thing I wanted to say was, even the deaf schools have sports programs for their students. They have a cheerleading squad, Football team, Basketball team, ect..... It's not just mainstream schools that have those programs.

Do you have an opinion on deaf schools and mainstream programs to add to this article? Send it in.
