The mascot at a school for the deaf in Arkansas is the leopards. They are The Arkansas School for the Deaf Leopards.

The Arkansas School for the Deaf has become a tradition in the State of Arkansas. It was founded in 1850 in Clarksville, Arkansas by Augustus Ward, and was the first school for the deaf to be established west of the Mississippi River. In 1898, Dr Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone, visited the school together with his deaf wife.

ASD periodically offers classes in American Sign Language for friends and family members of deaf children and will being providing podcasts in June 2014 on topics such as alphabet, color words, family signs, feelings, and much more.

A low student-to-teacher ratio means that each student receives individual attention. Most classes have less than 8 students. ASD is a leader in educational technology in the state of Arkansas. All students are encouraged to participate in after-school activities.

The mascot for the school's sports teams is the leopard. Get it? They are the leopards who are deaf — the Deaf Leopards! Quite the sense of humor! The Deaf Leopards are members of two different athletic conferences: The Great Plains Schools for the Deaf (GPSD) and The Arkansas Association of Christian Schools (AACS). The school participates in football, volleyball, basketball and soccer. They also have an enthusiastic and very attractive cheer squad! Go Leopards!
