children, teens and young adults as well as professional development opportunities.

Winter weather led to school closures on January 27–28 due to extreme cold and icing, and while one day is covered by built-in minutes, March 23 will serve as the inclement weather make-up day with school in session at 8:00am and a regular residential return on Sunday, March 22.

TSD affirms its compliance with state and federal law, supports individualized student services, clarifies admissions policy is rooted in state law, and reaffirms its commitment to Deaf and hard of hearing students.
