EVERY child has the right to develop their individual
capabilities
to the greatest extent possible.
In
the case of hearing-impaired children, additional resources
are required in order to provide a sound educational foundation
and an equal opportunity to succeed. Memphis Oral School for
the Deaf (MOSD) exists for the purpose of insuring that these
unique resources are readily available to those young children
who need them.
With the
combined support of the community and MOSD, young deaf children
in Memphis and the Mid-South area continue to have the opportunity
to learn to talk.
After
14 months of planning and building, we have moved into our
