The Connecticut Asylum for the Education and Instruction of Deaf and Dumb Persons was the name for short time, changed to American School for the Deaf.
Louisiana School for the Deaf was created on 1852-12-08.
Deaf people applaud by raising their hands in the air and wringing them back and forth. They don't clap because they can't hear the clapping. Clapping doesn't make sense to deaf people. Also, clapping is similar to the sign for school so it looks like you're signing "school school school school!" to them. lol Most deaf people know if a hearing person is clapping that they're not shouting school at them though.
The motto of Louisiana School for the Deaf is 'What was that?'.
