The School also presents cultural events to the public that entertain as they enlighten. In turn, the community gives its financial and moral support. Area newspapers and TV stations publicize programs and fund raising efforts. Graduate students come to the School as interns. Businesses and services clubs donate funds, equipment, and time.
Individual volunteers build playgrounds, paint classrooms, and plant trees.
Contributors to the School over the years would take pages to name. Reflecting on the past of the Willie Ross School for the Deaf not only shows us how very much has been accomplished, but inspires and enables us to move into the future with confidence and a sense of promise. The School has much to be proud of and much to look forward to. Much has been done and much is yet to come.
