We recognize that there are multiple ways that children may be intelligent and we are committed to supporting all forms. The school will focus on the 7-R's: reading, writing, arithmetic, respect for the Deaf child, the rights and responsiblities of citizenship, and recognition of Deafness as a positive state of being. We have expectations for our students equivilent to those of any other child in school. Because of this, we will use a curriculum designed for hearing children. We focus on developing critical thinking skills, not a core of face-based knowledge.
