What about school aged children?
In the 1999-2000 school year, one study recorded 43,861 deaf and hard of hearing students who were identified for services in U. S. schools. 33.2% of these students were reported to be profoundly deaf. Of the 43,861 students, 70% of these students do not regularly sign with their family members at home. For more information on these statistics refer to Gallaudet University's work.
