OSD also provides preschool programs for children who are Deaf at regional sites in Collinsville, Edmond and Chickasha.
Residential and Day School Education
At the main campus in Sulphur, OSD offers educational,
vocational and campus life programs for residential and day students from
infancy to 12th grade. Educational programs and support services address
students' intellectual, physical, social and emotional needs through
curriculum, extracurricular activities, transition programs, counseling,
physical therapy and health services.
Secondary school students receive vocational and technical training and work
experience through Occupational Training Opportunities for the Deaf and other vocational programs.
Students are transported home by the school
for weekends and holidays.
Outreach
The
School for the Deaf also serves as a resource center for the needs of
Oklahoma students who are Deaf but do not attend classes at OSD. Outreach
staff administer speech and language, psycho-educational and audiological
assessments to children across the state. Families of pre-school children
who are Deaf receive early intervention assistance. OSD also provides on
site consultation to public school districts, in-service training for
teachers and special cultural, academic, and social programs, including
