This is a great week!  Celebrating our seniors in both the Deaf and Blind High School is always a memorable way to end the school year!  One of the great traditions we started when I became President was having lawn signs of the senior dressed in their caps and gowns displayed the week of graduation. The signs (as shown in the photo) are strategically placed  along the long sidewalk leading up to the mall area between Walker Hall and Kirk Memorial. Blind High School seniors on the right, Deaf High School seniors on the left and President Snow standing in the middle on the sidewalk taking a selfie.

Congratulations class of 2026!
