POETA: Working Together to Enable Opportunities for Everyone

I had witnessed not all the deaf children failed their oral and fell behind in the lower grades. It was because Guatemalan sign language remained prohibited for many years in school. Deaf children should be allowed to access learning in Guatemalan sign language. I now live in America.

I am a native of Guatemala and am deaf too. It was the School for Deaf Children Fray

Pedro Ponce Of Leon where I attended when I was a little girl. I was an Oralist who didn't access to language in the lower grades of reading and writing.
