Educational attainment is a crucial contributor to postsecondary achievement for deaf people, as a key component of narrowing employment gaps. Fewer deaf people complete high school and postsecondary education than their hearing peers, resulting in severe educational attainment gaps. However, secondary data analyses of the American Community Survey revealed areas of optimism related to the change over time in educational attainment for deaf people from 2008 to 2018. In general, attainment appears to be steadily improving for deaf people, with demonstrated growth in high school, associate, and bachelor's degree completion. Differences in growth occurred across gender, race, and ethnicity. Educational attainment gaps between deaf and hearing people narrowed over time for high school and associate degree completion, but stayed stable for bachelor's degree completion. Findings can drive changes in policy and practice that facilitate greater educational attainment for deaf people.
