come on y'all u are biased! most of u graduated from ISD, so of course y'all would say ISD is the best deaf school in the nation...I would rather to hear it from an outsider, who never went to ISD before...

I heard of that phrase over and over. Make me wonder who did labeled IndianaSD as best Deaf school in our nation. Who did? ISDers! No else than ISDers. I speak of the outsiders who observation on every Deaf school.

In the past, I heard MSSD was best Deaf school later change to MarylandSD to CSDF to IndianaSD. then who rated on every Deaf school annually?

If you have any link about which one's best Deaf school. Prove us!

I asked a woman I know who has been to over 180 schools in the U.S. what were the best deaf schools in her opinion, and this was her reply....

Quote:

let me list the schools I consider to be the best in the
country, for reference:

Model Secondary School for the Deaf - Washington, D.C. Unquestionably the
best.
California School for the Deaf - Fremont, California
Maryland School for the Deaf - Frederick, Maryland

Pretty good schools include:

Illinois School for the Deaf - Jacksonville, Illinois
Wisconsin School for the Deaf - Delavan, Wisconsin
Rochester School for the Deaf - Rochester, New York
California School for the Deaf - Riverside
University High School (and its corresponding elem/MS programs) - Irvine, CA
The Learning Center for Deaf Children - Framingham, MA

ISD is the best Deaf school? Ha. I went to the mainstreaming school in Ohio years ago. My school was voted as the best school in Cuyahoga County (NE Ohio).. yes, that's the fact that my school is the best, BUT mind you that Deaf education in my school is so-so, depending on teachers' abilities to teach Deaf students. It was not that great in my time. So, I believe that other Deaf schools are very good as well as St. Mary's School for the Deaf, Buffalo, NY. For instance, my friend told me that he went to SMSD for years in late 1960s-early 1970s and teachers gave him and his other classmates some tough assignments and treated them like hearing (of course they taught in ASL). But, today's SMSD still does that? I have no idea.

FYI, I don't want to offend anyone... I went to Indianapolis myself.. I considered that Indianapolis is B O R I N G.

it shouldn t matter who's school is the best, U went to that school ( for example ISD or CSDF or MSSD) all ur alumni schools are at its best in thier opioion, basically no one is perfect in education and no one is superior either. i dont brag abt my school s skills or quality. i just say i went to this school yes thats it drop it . simple as that!

What I posted was an OPINION of someone I respect. the following is a list of her credentials to back up her opinion.

Quote:

credentials - BA in English and Education, master's degree in deaf education. I have student teaching experience with hearing high school students (via voice interpreter) and deaf residential school students, have teaching experience with deaf students in a day school program.

This isn't a credential, but I also have traveled extensively within the US and visited more than 100 schools and programs serving d/hh students at the HS level in a previous job; this travel has allowed me to interact with d/hh students using every form of auditory and visual support there is.

Huh? Goofyboy - who are yew? And also Luckypinkstar03, who are ya?

sweetgal154 · 09-04-2003, 08:32 PM

Have a question for you ISDers...What is/are the reasons for claiming that ISD is a good school, better than anyone? (obviously it is education but how is that better than other schools? Are teachers strict? Are the classes hard?)

I agree with some people that there are ISDers claiming that it's a good school, but where are the facts?

I don't see anyone from another school making a statement that the other school is good.

deafdyke · 09-04-2003, 11:31 PM

Good question....what makes a GOOD deaf school? How can we improve deaf schools, so that hearing parents will WANT to send their deaf and hoh kids to the deaf school, instead of automaticlly thinking that mainstreaming or oral schools are the ANSWER to acadmic sucess.

javapride · 09-05-2003, 07:56 PM

As u can see I dont talk abt CSDF like an egoist would, im proud that i graduated from there, but we ALL have difference of opioions of what makes a good school I for one know culture wise that deaf society will say this school sucks or that school is better, just be glad we graduated from there, we learned and we're still learning lifes long lesson! BRAGGING abt ur school is like being a stuck up Sorry to say this but that's my opioion.

lilredridinhood · 09-14-2003, 02:30 PM
