Broomfield High School ASL

 "American Sign Language is of great value to the deaf, but could also be of great benefit to the hearing as well... It is superior to spoken language in its beauty and emotional expressiveness. It brings kindred souls into a much more close and conscious communion than mere speech can possibly do." - Thomas H. Gallaudet, 1848

Where is ASL from? 

10 Reasons to Learn ASL 

Yes, ASL counts for college 

My name is Nina Endler. I've been teaching American Sign Language (ASL) at Broomfield High School since 2011. In 2019 I earned a Masters in Teaching ASL. Soon after that, we formed a chapter of the ASL Honor Society (ASLHS). We offer ASL 1-4, with ASL 3 and 4 being together and following "A" and "B" years. You will learn my "About me" in class. :)

Classwork and assignments are in Schoology. Schoology is where you need to go to find class materials. The best way to get to Schoology is via my.bvsd.org
