At Lost Hills Union School District, four boys can often be found sprinting across the track, laughing with their teammates and friends, or swapping stories in the classroom. They are students, athletes, and leaders, and they also happen to experience hearing loss. But to their school community, that hearing loss is not what defines them.

The boys’ support network includes their families, Lost Hills educators, and specialists from the Kern County Superintendent of Schools, including Robertson and Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Itinerant Teacher Marisol Escudero, who have known some of the boys since early childhood.

“Administration and educators deserve a standing ovation for the immense pride, dedication, and honor they have for these students,” Escudero said. “This is top-tier education right here, where they’re making sure that these kids have access.”
