Visitors are surprised at
how "loud" ISD really is!
Students with all communication
methods, abilities and devices
are welcome at Iowa School for
the Deaf! Our students vary in their
hearing levels, from those with mild
losses to those with severe | profound
losses. Cochlear implants and hearing
aids in bright colors are prevalent on
campus; and some students do not use
any device.
Vistors are surprised at how "loud"
ISD really is! Speech language
pathologists strategize with students
to keep their residual voicing
abilities. Hearing teachers speak and
sign simultaneously. American Sign
Language is used on campus and all
employees are required to attain and
retain a level of signing, depending
on the amount of interaction they
have with students.
