I was not thinking of an informal teacher for the older age groups when the vocabulary and grammar, syntax etc are more complicated. I was just wishing that all little kids could have the advantage of, or at least the taste of ASL. My mistake. I will look into the extracuricullar activities in our schools. I do know that my son's high school does not have any free type clubs for fellowshipping etc. I guess it was stupid idea. So, thanks for the input. I can quit worrying about it now.
