KSD on Facebook
We now have a KSD facebook page! If you would like to become a fan there are two ways to do so. You must already have a personal facebook account to become a fan of our Kansas School for the Deaf page. One way is to go to
this link once you are logged in. The other way is to use the facebook search bar and look for Kansas School for the Deaf. You may need to "see more results" as there are many listing about KSD. I am currently working with facebook to have the additional pages removed. You will want to pick the one that is labeled as (Education) and has a picture of the Roth Building. We already have over 75 fans as of 8/18/10. This page is a completely public page and will function as an additional way to get information out about the school, much like our website. This also allows us to participate in many of the new grants that are facebook based. This page will be moderated by me at this time. Please join us and share with all of your facebook friends. Let's get the word out about all the great things we do here at KSD! Thank you.

Facebook Fundraising for KSD
The Kansas School for the Deaf is competing in a Facebook campaign sponsored by Kohl's to win $500,000.00. Kohl's Cares will pick 20 schools to receive the funding based on how many votes we receive. If we are a winner, we will be looking at Wi-Fi for our school and other technology purchases. If you have an account and choose to participate, here is what you can do. Search for KOHL'S and visit their page. "Like" their page and then under the Kohl's cares tab, search for the Kansas School for the Deaf. Give KSD 5, of your 20, votes. Two minutes of your time could make a WORLD of difference to our school. Spread the word! Every vote counts!
