The Louisiana School for the Deaf is a state school for deaf and hard-of-hearing students in Louisiana, located in Baton Rouge, the state capital. It was established in 1852 as a joint school for blind students. In 1860, its first purpose-built facility was completed and admired as an elegant monument to philanthropy. The schools were divided in 1898, and in 1908, Louisiana School for the Deaf was renamed. Construction of facilities has continued over the years. In 1978, black students were absorbed when their school was merged into this one. The expanded school now has 22 major buildings, including a football stadium, on a 116-acre campus south of Louisiana State University on Brightside Lane. In 2009, the Louisiana School for the Visually Impaired (LSVI) was relocated here. ==Mission== The mission of the Louisiana School for the Deaf is: *To enhance the academic, vocational, physical, emotional, social and cultural development of each student. *To provide a visually accessible, positive and nurturing environment that emphasizes literacy and effective communication skills. *To be a caring community where students can achieve personal excellence and become independent lifelong learners. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Louisiana School for the Deaf」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
