May 2023

  • Dear St. Mary's School for the Deaf and the Deaf Community of Western New York:

    We remain Child First as we enter into May of 2023.  Learning and goal achievements are happening on all fronts, before, during, and after school.  I'm incredibly proud of the remarkable year that SMSD has had.    We remain commited to providing an optimal Bilingual ASL/English environment, where students can develop a strong language and literacy foundation, allowing them to thrive and become successful in life.

     

    Check out these cool things happening at SMSD this month!
