Escuela de Educación Especial de San Miguel de Allende
Why choose Escuela de Educación Especial de San Miguel de Allende?
EEE is the only school for special education in the State of Guanajuato, and is currently focused on providing education for Deaf and Hard of Hearing children and youth. There are no publicly funded schools that offer special education for children with special needs in Mexico, therefore Deaf and Hard of Hearing children from families with limited financial means are most often enrolled in regular public schools; schools where the teachers have no skill or ability to communicate with these children. EEE has brought Mexican Sign Language to Deaf students and their families, it follows the public school curriculum which provides Deaf children with a whole education and also provides adult education classes for those who have fallen through the cracks but wish to receive their high school equivalency. There is now also a vocational training which teaches graduating students new skills in preparation for job placement and integration into hearing society.
