Re: Literacy levels for HOH / D kids

[Guest guest]

I happened to run into my daughter's HS principal today - she is the

upper school principal at WPSD. The high school class last year

graduated with a reading grade level of 7.2. So whatever WPSD is

doing with these students - and I think none of them had CIs - is

working. I work for the US Navy as a civilian and was a tech writer

previously....when we wrote Tech manuals for sailors, we targetted

our reading grade level at Grade 8. The principal also told me that

Mark is working w WPSD to track reading grade levels and improvement

and actually is going to start bringing in other research (maybe the

consortium of private schools serving deaf students). As the

children get older, CIs will be considered because more younger

students do have CIs, even at the deaf schools.

By the way, I tried to do a google/ask jeeves search on reading

grade levels for the average high school graduate. I think there

are SO many variables and different states institute different

reading programs.

I will post to the list as I get more info.
