  - ASL 1 & 2: Perfect for beginners, focusing on the alphabet, handshapes, and foundational ASL grammar. Classes are typically taught in English, with options to choose Deaf or hearing instructors.  
  - ASL 3+: Immerse yourself in signing, with minimal or no voice, as you grow more confident and fluent.  
- **Weekly Enrichment Clubs:** These are ideal for students who want to explore ASL in a fun, relaxed setting. Learn new signs, phrases, and have a great time with others!
