2010 Statewide Conference on Education of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing
SWCED
July 22-24, 2010
Omni Hotel, Fort Worth, Texas
During our conferences, outstanding leaders working with students who are
deaf/hard of hearing are recognized. More importantly, scholarships are
given to deserving students who are deaf/hard of hearing from across the
state. In recent years, scholarships have been given to Interpreters and
Teachers pursuing certificates and/or degrees in the fields of Interpreting
and Deaf education.
In 2010, the sponsoring agencies/programs of the Statewide conference
include T.A.P.E.D., ESC’s, R.D.S.P.D’s, T.S.D. and DAR’s. Representatives
from these agencies/programs make up the Statewide Conference Planning
committee.
The Statewide Conference planning committee has always been a TEAM to reckon
with. Their commitment to this conference has continued throughout the years
and the excellence we have in deaf education in the state of Texas is due,
at least in part, to the excellence in staff development provided to
parents, educators, interpreters, and other stakeholders through the
Statewide Conference! We would like to thank our sponsors for their ongoing
support of this outstanding Conference!
On SECED website, you will learn more about our upcoming Conference in Fort
Worth, Texas at the Omni Hotel on July 22-July 24, 2010. This conference is

with children/students who are deaf /hard of hearing in our state! In 2010,
the sponsoring agencies/programs of the Statewide conference include the
