In this episode of Rainy Day Recess, Cherylynne Crowther takes the reins to discuss the ongoing exclusion of Deaf and Hard of Hearing (D/HH) families in Seattle Public Schools. After a group of Deaf parents testified about enrollment barriers at the April 23 board meeting, many returned two weeks later to a district engagement event, only to find there were no interpreters. The district apologized, but the apology wasn’t interpreted either.
We explore the long history of inaccessibility in SPS along with the specific changes families are calling for now, including: enrollment at DHH schools for children of deaf adults (CODAs), consistent ASL interpretation, and a community-led DHH task force.
Are we on a better trajectory at last?
