Classes, Workshops & Conferences Summer Program 2013 - New Mexico Challenge: Explore. Pursue. Accomplish! June 16 - 28, 2013
Tuition and room and board for this two-week adventure are provided free of charge to eligible children and youth from New Mexico who will be in grades Preschool -12 this fall.
We offer a place where academic and non-academic activities come together in fun and adventurous ways. Students forge strong friendships and expand their understanding of their community and the world. Summer Program Contact: Kimberly Olivas (505) 216-2021 (videophone) ASL Immersion 2013 - BOTH ASL IMMERSION PROGRAMS ARE FULL. WE ARE STILL ACCEPTING REGISTRATIONS FOR WAIT LISTS. ASL Immersion is an immersion program in American Sign Language (ASL) that allows participants to understand how it feels to depend on one’s eyes rather than one’s ears to communicate and interact with the world. There are periods of instruction, including modeling, creative invention, mime, vocabulary, and of course, sentence structure. Students practice with each other, their teachers, members of the NMSD staff, and visiting members of the Deaf Community. On field trips, they try their skills on the Santa Fe population. Participants leave with a more complete understanding of Deafness and an improved ability to communicate in ASL. Due to increased participation, two sessions will be offered:

Family to Family Weekend is packed with family-relevant workshops and ASL learning activities for children and family members. NMSD families and NMSD Outreach families mingle and learn in an informal environment, learning from energetic instructors. Workshop topics are chosen to address family- specific communication. Family to Family Weekend provides vocabulary and instruction that enhances their communication immediately! While parents attend workshops, deaf and hearing siblings have a chance to play and learn together in a comfortable learning environment. Families also benefit from sharing their own stories with each other!
