SIGN LANGUAGE CLASSES AT CVES
Sign classes will be starting this Monday October 4, 2010. These classes are designed to provide signing skills to promote communication opportunities for staff, families and friends of our Deaf and Hard of Hearing students at Crown Valley. This year there will be 10 sessions designed for beginning and intermediate adult skill levels and also a class for children. Children need to be in Kindergarten or older to attend and if attending the class their parent(s) must also be attending one of the adult classes. Classes are in session 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm for each of the 10 Mondays evenings through December 13th, excluding November 22nd.
