ASLHS Pledge
-
As a student of ASL, I understand that language can be a powerful connection between peoples of different cultures and backgrounds, bringing them together. Henceforth, I am proud to commit to being a steadfast ally of the Deaf community. I pledge to encourage Deaf and Hearing peoples to come together in unity throughout the world. Lastly, I will uphold the ideals of the American Sign Language Honor Society in scholarship, community service, and personal excellence.
