Deaf Schools

yeah yeah....but what about math? I have been to VSDB, their math suck as well
 
That is true about home. My mother did not have time with me. 5 kids with two deaf girls, poverty, etc.

they say that Most deaf people won't read above a third-grade level, and you say doctors need to keep up with time and now it is no longer like that. So what changed? Is it the learning style? If so, maybe school is the blame.

Hearing graduates of public high schools only read at an approximate 5th grade level.

But be careful with grade level scores. They can be deceptive.
 
Agreed, souggy and Bott. Home influences have much to do with any kind of academic success.
 
Deaf schools doesnt help you with college. I am planning to go to Fine Art college after J. L Mann high school

Hmmmm.....someone forgot to tell my son that. He went to a deaf school, graduated with a Bachelor degree from a hearing uni, and is now a graduate student at a hearing uni. Should I let him know that he isn't supposed to be there?:lol:

The deaf school he attended has an 80% rate for graduates that go to college. Someone needs to let them know that they aren't supposed to be helping those kids like that!

Not to mention one of the Deaf schools he cited produced some really neat bloggers.
 
You really are barking up the wrong tree...geez!

Deaf children are a lot smarter than what those stupid hearing people give them credit for.
 
Jillio, just curious: what deaf school did your son go to?

You are so wrong and very very stereotypical. You need to get your facts straight before you spout out nonsense like this.

My brother went to a deaf school all his life and is getting his Master's so I would be careful with making stereotypical statements, if I were you.

I wanted to know why deaf children goes deaf school instead mainstream schools? I always goes to Mainstream schools, and tell ya truth I am actually against deaf schools because of their education. I want deaf people to be smart and wise. I went to VSDB and they didnt have english class! such shame. Then I moved to Sc and checked out SCSDB...NO English class! also they dont respect each other well. I cant live with people who show no respect. so my opinon is Mainstream Schools is much better than deaf schools. Hope I dont piss you guys off (laughs)

I remember when I lived at deaf school, i was jealous of those smart kids who were in top class and all of them went to college. My English stinks, do you think they wanted to put me in with those smart kids? I read kindergarten level when I was in 6th grade. Why my English suck because I did not learn sign language till I was 9. But I used to play card games with senior citizens when I was 4 and I beat hell out of them. No one taught me how to play card games, I learned by watch them. Anyway I went to public schools in my last few years of school, I required to have ASL teacher and ASL interepter. Did my English improved? no never and it never will. It is alike I have learning disability but it is not. Being in oral program first few years of my deaf childhood damaged me somewhat.

You do not know deaf schools and you can not tell us education there are bad. U have to live in and then u will know and understand.
