Parents are welcome to call and visit. Dropping in is fine, parents are always welcome. Telephone communication is available by TTY for students. The relay service has almost eliminated our need to provide an interpreter for school to home calls but we will be happy to help you if you need help. Close communication between home and school and dorm is our goal.
Students receive all services of SSSD without charge.
But, just like at home, students do need some spending money for the fun activities of after school life. A reasonable allowance is up to you. The staff will help your child manage their money, if necessary. The snack bar, corner store, trips to the mall, bowling, skating, skiing, trips to shows require some support from home. Your child's dorm counselor will help work out a plan for these activities.
