I was mainstreamed my whole life with deaf education when needed. Mostly needed help in English/vocabulary. I didn't have a terp until 9th grade, and thats when my grades improved dramatically. I stayed at the same hearing school from 2nd grade until graduated class of 2000.
My husband went to Alabama School for the deaf for K-3rd grade. Then we both transferred to the same school at the same year (he was in 4th grade and I was in 2nd) and met at the deaf ed class. He graduated in '98.
When we got there, it was 12 deafies between K-12 but now we have all graduated and there are still 3 of the original 12 left to graduate. We are all still good friends, except for 3 of the ones who are much older than us.
