The Moog Center for Deaf Education is an American school in St. Louis, Missouri, founded in 1996 by oralist educator Jean Sachar Moog.[1]
The Moog Center is an independent, not-for-profit school that provides education services to children with hearing loss and their families from birth to early elementary years.[1]
Eight certified Moog programs offer oral education for deaf and hard-of-hearing children and their families:
- Buffalo Hearing and Speech Center in Buffalo, New York
- Child's Voice in the Chicago, Illinois, area
- Colegio Las Lomas Oral in Buenos Aires, Argentina
- Desert Voices in Phoenix, Arizona
- The Moog Center for Deaf Education in St. Louis, Missouri
- Northern Voices in the Twin Cities, Minnesota
- Ohio Valley Voices in Cincinnati, Ohio
- Presbyterian Ear Institute Oral School in Albuquerque, New Mexico[1]
The curriculum's focus is accelerating spoken language development and, when the children are ready, helping them learn the same subjects as their hearing age-mates to catch up and fully participate in the mainstream.
