The Moog Center for Deaf Education was founded in 1996 by one of the pioneers of the oralism method, Jean Sachar Moog.
The Moog Center is an independent, not-for-profit school that provides education services to children — birth to early elementary years — with hearing loss and their families.
There are eight Certified Moog Programs that offer oral education for deaf and hard-of-hearing children and their families:[1]
The focus of the curriculum is accelerating development of spoken language and, when the children are ready, to help them learn the same subjects as their hearing age-mates so they can catch up and be full participants in the mainstream.
