“...provide residential services to those students who are resident students...”

a) Residential Services (Demonstration School Component)

By definition, a student admitted to the Demonstration School is also admitted to the Residential Services. This is where an exceptionally devoted staff provide a learning environment for students to gain confidence and self-esteem, to better define their identity through a variety of interpersonal experiences and to further increase their skills in problem-solving, especially those that are required by a learning disabled in our challenging society.

b) Residential Services (Provincial School Component)

While there are some restrictions as to which of the Provincial School’s students can or cannot be admitted to the Residential Services, it is intended to our deaf or hard of hearing students or some of our deafblind students, who would benefit from an environment where LSQ is the prefered mode of communication. All of our current residential counselors use LSQ as their primary mode of communication. Because of the many workshops and activities that are available, students stand to benefit from a rich linguistic environment thus promoting the use of LSQ.
