KDLT.com South Dakota News - Kaiser to Assume Leadership at South Dakota School for the Deaf

The long-time superintendent of the South Dakota School for the Blind and Visually Impaired has a new role. Effective immediately, Marjorie Kaiser will become superintendent of the South Dakota School for the Deaf as well.

The Board of Regents, which oversees the two schools serving special student populations, approved expanded duties for Kaiser at a regular meeting this week in Brookings.

Terry Gregersen, who served as School for the Deaf superintendent for the past three years, has resigned to pursue other opportunities. "We thank Terry for his service and his dedication to improving the lives of children served by the South Dakota School for the Deaf," said Regents President Terry Baloun.

Kaiser has been superintendent at the School for the Blind and Visually Impaired in Aberdeen since 1986. She was a staff member and coordinator in the school's Deaf-Blind Program from 1975 to 1985. She recently received the highest honor awarded by the Council of Schools for the Blind, and is a past president of that national organization. Kaiser earned her specialist and doctoral degrees in educational administration from The University of South Dakota, and also holds degrees from Northern State University and St. Cloud State University.
 
I hope she doesn't dumb down the curriculm at the Deaf School.
The complaint that the curriculm at the Deaf Schools is dumbed down is NOTHING compared to the curriculm at Schools for the Blind. (b/c most students at Schools for the blind tend to be a lot more affected then just blind or even just blind with relatively mild issues)
