Deaf & Hard-of-Hearing Preschool

Our preschool team includes a certified teacher of the deaf, a licensed speech-language pathologist and a special education teacher who collaborate to deliver an enriched curriculum for preschool age students who are deaf or hard of hearing. The faculty utilizes a total communication approach throughout the school day to encourage all aspects of a child’s learning and development. A state-of-the-art auditory wireless system is used to help students maximize their hearing ability. 

Deaf & Hard-of-Hearing Preschool program includes:

• Evening sign language course:  Program taught by the teacher of our deaf and hard of hearing classroom for family and friends in need of basic sign language skills

• Community-based instruction:  Preschool students experience outings into the community for "hands-on" learning
