I got this from one blogger I really like elsewhere and have posted it here. So what's new in Denmark? Sigh.......
I got word about this tonight from a friend. From my understanding, The NCSD Director Linda Lindsey is not fluent in ASL and always in a need of an interpreter in order to communicate with the students. I just find this so ironic because as a director of a Deaf School, You are expected to be able to know ASL in order to communicate with the students.

Aside from the ASL expectations, This is not the only complaints NCSD Students are having. They are wanting better access to the education, technology and athletics programs as well.

Here's 2 links that I'd like to share in this thread --
