In American Sign Language (ASL), the sign for "school" is simple and clear. You clap your hands together twice to sign "school." Your dominant hand should be on top. Your palms face each other, like clapping. This sign is easy to understand and well-known in the Deaf community. It shows the idea of coming together to learn. The sign is often used in schools or when talking about education. Facial expressions and context can add meaning to the sign. Knowing this sign helps beginners talk about school topics in ASL.
