Oh wow that really sucks that you've only got two options for schooling....and it's the two that were only available in the old days. (either a deaf school or a mainstream placement) But then again, that's awesome that you want to start a magnet style program. ...I think many if not most hoh kids can really benifit from that sort of setting......They can attend a mainstream school, but ALSO get benifit from special educators who are familair with teaching dhh kids. I think you'll find that there are prolly a lot of parents of dhh kids who are really frustrated with battling mainstream teachers for appropreate accomondations, but who don't want to send their kids to a Deaf School.
