Message from the Superintendent: Greetings! The California School for the Deaf takes pride in our self-study process, which is in place to ensure that we can assess, plan, implement, monitor and reassess our school programs. A successful accreditation gives us a ‘stamp of validation’ that our programs are meeting the standards established by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and Conference of Educational Administrators of Schools and Programs for the Deaf (CEASD). If you participated in this process via home group discussions (such as the Community Advisory Committee or the Association of Families Teachers and Counselors) and/or by taking the surveys that were sent out to you, thank you!

 

Next week, March 17-20, CSD is hosting a joint accreditation visit by WASC and CEASD for an extensive program review. WASC and CEASD will be presenting their program recommendations and/or commendations to our students and staff on Wednesday (3/20). 

Please Join Us: To keep families and community well informed about the school’s accreditation report, we are extending an invitation for you to participate by attending one of the two interpreted Community Presentations on March  20. We will be sharing the recommendations and/or commendations, as well as introducing our school’s Enrollment and Retention Strategic Plan which is still in the works! We encourage you to attend one of these informative presentations.

 

The content of both interpreted presentations will be identical. There are two time options for you to choose from:

 

 

There is no need to RSVP. We look forward to having you with us!
