Lexington School for the Deaf - Deaf Awareness Week

In honor and celebration of Deaf Awareness Week 2015, the Lexington School for the Deaf has designed a special t-shirt to raise awareness of the necessity of sign language to the Deaf community.

The front of the shirt shows two signing hands, a small one to represent our students and a larger one to represent the important adults –parents, family, teachers, aides, therapists, and community members - who empower our students to use their natural language to communicate successfully in the world around them. The back of the shirt includes this year’s Deaf Awareness Week message – “With Sign Language Rights, Our Children Can!”

Show your support for Lexington’s Deaf Awareness Week activities by purchasing one of these unique t-shirts. Proceeds from t-shirt sales will be used to purchase Deaf Awareness Week t-shirts for the students and staff at Lexington.
