- I am a student from Burbank High School, and i heard a lot of thing about this college. My teacher now used to go there, his name is Bill Gallimore. He took American Sign Language, and he said that this school was really good, but it's hard to get into. I reallt love the language and how beautiful it is to learn it. Thank you.
