Sarah McBride

Sarah McBride was born and raised in Palo Alto and has been teaching American Sign Language (ASL) for over 20 years. She currently teaches ASL Levels 1, 2, and 3 at Saint Francis High School and has also been part of SIL since 2020.

Sarah discovered ASL in high school after being identified as profoundly Deaf at age three. Since then, ASL has been her primary language. She later received cochlear implants at age 25, which she continues to use daily. Sarah holds a Master’s Degree in Education and is passionate about sharing ASL and Deaf culture with her students.

Outside the classroom, she enjoys spending time with her Deaf husband and their two Deaf children, one in college and one in high school. She also loves hiking, skiing, biking, and running marathons.
