Is it good for deaf/hh students to be in a public school? It depends on the student (hearing loss, communication needs, social needs, academic needs, etc.), his/her family situation, and the school itself. I've seen a wide spectrum of where a public school is awesome at meeting the needs of a student...to where the public school should be closed down for the way it handled the needs (if handled at all) of the students.

I hope your experience in school was a good and positive one.
