Too bad about that school....at any rate, to compare it with residential isn't gonna work so....
I agree. I made a mistake there

Times 10 (say from 2nd grade to 12th) would be $800,000 per student to get him or her graduated at possibly at a 4th grade comprehension level, too.
Are you saying all Deaf schools limit the students to read no higher than a 4th grade level? :roll:
No, by the time they graduate they barely at the 4th grade reading comprehension level. And it's not just English, either.Are you saying all Deaf schools limit the students to read no higher than a 4th grade level? :roll:

WHOAAAAA! That chart shows that 90% of 11th graders are "far below" proficiency in English? That is horrible!

Well, you have to consider the fact there are several factors which play a role in a child's language development. Not just the schools, but the parents too as well.
But 90%? That can't be blamed on parents only. That is clearly a failure at a huge level. It clearly isn't working (and you can't say that ALL of them are oral failures, California has one of the highest rates of enrollment from the start as well as parents moving there specifically for the school.)
I want to see a chart that shows the average of all hearing students, please. Nvm.. Found it.

But you guys need to remember - The deaf schools do get the bad seed from the public schools usually..
