Palisades Park School District needed a certified ASL teacher. Proximity Learning delivered one in days, launching a live virtual course at 66% less than traditional hiring costs.
The Challenge
Palisades Park School District set out to add American Sign Language to its world languages curriculum, but a shortage of certified ASL instructors stood in the way. Without a qualified teacher, the course remained out of reach, leaving eager students without access to a subject the district was determined to offer.
The Solution
Proximity Learning’s network of certified ASL teachers delivered live, interactive virtual lessons and tailored lesson plans for Palisades Park. Just two weeks after the start of our partnership, the district launched ASL 1, and students received instruction from ASL experts from the very first day.
The Results
Palisades Park went from zero ASL offerings to a fully certified, livestreamed course in days, saving significantly on staffing while expanding student access.
What Made it Work
Proximity Learning sources from a national pool of certified educators, freeing Palisades Park from local limitations. The perfect ASL teacher was matched and ready to teach in just days.
Students connect with a real teacher livestreamed into their classroom, following the school’s own schedule. Lessons are live, interactive, and capture the energy of in-person learning.
With no long-term contract required, Proximity Learning gave the district the flexibility to launch quickly and expand the program to ASL 2 after the first course’s success.
