Which of the following is part of ensuring accessibility in all facilities of a residential Deaf school?

• A. Visual signage
• B. Captioned announcements
• C. Accessible alarm systems
• D. All of the above

Answer: (D)

Providing accessibility means removing barriers across every area of the school. Visual signage helps everyone locate rooms, exits, and services even when sound cues can’t be heard. Captioned announcements ensure important information shared over the PA is accessible by reading. Accessible alarm systems use visual alerts or vibrations so a Deaf student is alerted to emergencies just as others are alerted by sound. When you combine these elements—clear signage, captioned information, and accessible alarms—you cover navigation, communication, and safety across classrooms, hallways, dormitories, and common spaces. All of the above is the comprehensive approach to accessibility in all facilities.
