Home - Ål Folk High School for the Deaf

Welcome to Ål Folk High School

Here we speak Norwegian sign language. Everyone is welcome here, regardless of their background. Our goal is that everyone who comes here can communicate with sign language. If you don’t know sign language, you can learn it here. We offer teaching, socializing and activities in sign language. We at Ål Folk High School are proud of our vibrant sign language community.
