American Sign Language (ASL)

ASL is the primary language of thousands of hearing-impaired Americans. Learning to communicate with the hearing-impaired is fun, and the skills you learn can also improve your communication skills in other aspects of your life at home or work. If you are employed in the fields of banking; customer service; sales; law enforcement; or a medical field, at some point you may need additional skills to communicate with your customers or clients. These course will not certify students in Sign Language interpretation.

American Sign Language I

American Sign Language is the primary language of thousands of hearing-impaired Americans. Students attending this class will learn the alphabet, colors, counting, family member terms, and more. Course fee includes the textbook required for the class.

Sign Language for the Holidays

This class is designed for students who have had previous sign language classes. The class will learn to sign holiday songs, holiday poetry, stories for children, and other traditional holiday fun. We will use the songs and signs that we have learned to encourage those who would not usually experience the wonder of holiday music. Successful completion of Sign Language I and II are required to enroll in this class. No textbook will be required or provided in this class.
