School Reviews
5 10/11/2010
This is a school I went to for three years, their living facilitys are awsome, programs are wonderful, they have SLC (Student Life Counsilers). They try to get ideas from all students for programs. Classes are small which means more one on one with teachers. There are all sorts of handicap people with hearing problems and they are all helped and given things to help them. The teachers are for the most part wonderful but they can be harsh for those who like to fool around which is awsome. Although right now WSD is in need of serious help, The state of Washington is Cutting their budget big, which will result in closure of all their programs. The state is leave all public school budget alone. Even the deaf deserve the right to acidemic-programs. If you can help spread the word that this is unacceptable and help us fight to keep our programs at WSD, we will be greatful! Anyone looking to go to this school, I give this School a RATING OF 100!
