2022-2023 school year
My DHH team and I believe in "whatever it takes" and it shows in the classroom. We base academic curriculum on the California State Standards, plus we support strong language development using a bilingual approach. We use a number of resources to compliment what we teach and the way the students learn. We encourage our DHH students to explore their talents so they are empowered by choosing a career or having post-secondary opportunities upon graduation.
About me
My name is Laura Kim and I am a teacher of the Deaf for the DHH program. This is my fifth year working with iMiddle team and my fourteenth year teaching with the SDUSD!
I have two B.A degrees in Communications and Graphic Design from Gallaudet University and completed a MA ASL-English Bilingual Teaching program at UCSD. I am passionate about Deaf education and make sure all DHH students learn at high levels, to actively participate in and be accountable for their learning.
