RD -
I am not aware of Carol Lasasso venturing out on this topic again any time soon. Interesting read though. I know locally the system will tell you that they are bi-bi., but in reality they do not have the quantity or quality of staff to truly be bi-bi. It is a huge problem that is not talked about.

....Cued Speech has substantial data showing that it enables deaf children to attain competency in English at the level of hearing students grade by grade. I know of no other system that enables this to happen.... As more and more young deaf persons achieve academically because of this system, deaf leaders will need to re-examine their options.
