As a teacher in a school with many DHH students, the benefits of this simple change would be life-changing!

ASL is recognized as a distinct language, and credits should be applied accordingly.

Great idea. Would be a huge benefit to society if more people knew sign language.

This is a FUNDAMENTAL part of communication for everyone, at every age. Sign language is a beautiful form of art and communication that cannot be seen because the district school board won't allow this much positivity into our lives. Let's make this a internationally recognized language!

My daughter is taking ASL and she often came home excited about what she learned. However it disappoints us both greatly to learn the course she is taking is not a valid language credit and will not be able to go into it in the future because of it.

I am singing this petition because I know how important this subject is to someone dear who is passionate about her job and is disillusioned with the establishment!

Right now I am taking the ASL open credit and I am very disappointed that it does not count as a language credit. I hope that the ministry will stop and release the codes, allowing me to the education I deserve.
