Memphis Oral School for the Deaf (MOSD) is located in Germantown, Tennessee and works to empower deaf children to listen, learn, and talk. MOSD has been serving families from all over the Mid-South since 1959. At MOSD NO SIGN LANGUAGE is used.  We help profoundly deaf and hard-hearing children ages birth to six years old learn language during the most critical developmental stages of their lives. We believe that through early intervention and diagnosis,  speech and language therapies,  and advanced technologies and audiological services, deaf children can develop necessary listening and spoken language skills to become a part of, rather than apart from, a world of sound.  We serve our Spanish population with an on staff interpreter for MOSD parents while promoting bilingual language development for our Spanish-speaking children. 

MOSD is one of 42 OPTION Schools in the world with the goal to advance excellence in listening and spoken language education. 
Our average annual school enrollment is 30 children
Our average student to teacher ratio is 4 to 1
MOSD is accredited by the Tennessee Department of Education. Our highly qualified staff of audiologists, speech pathologists, and educators is licensed in the state of Tennessee. 
We serve as an observation and training site for Audiologists and Speech/Language Pathologists and educators from universities across the country.
