The star-studded Oscar award ceremony took place on March 27, and one of the winners is an Arizona native who went to Phoenix Day School for the Deaf.
Troy Kotsur, from Mesa, won supporting actor for his role in CODA, a film about a deaf family with a hearing daughter. He's the first man who is deaf to win an Academy Award for acting.
Kotsur attended the school between 1972 and 1984. The day following his win, they pulled out the old yearbooks to reminisce and found pictures of him on the varsity football team, basketball team and signing the Star-Spangled Banner.
