More about Oregon School for the Deaf

The Oregon School for the Deaf (OSD) is one of Oregon’s oldest and proudest schools. Established in 1870 by the Oregon Legislature, OSD serves children who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing. Located in Salem, OSD provides a high quality, comprehensive educational program for students in kindergarten through age 21. Approximately half of OSD’s students are day-students, while the other half are residential students, living in residence halls staffed by highly trained, caring individuals during the week and go home each weekend.

OSD is a potential educational placement for any child in Oregon who is eligible for special education services due to a hearing impairment. This is a tuition-free educational placement. The program is funded through the Oregon Legislature and overseen by the Oregon Department of Education. Representatives from a child’s local school district, regional program, and OSD, along with the student and parents, make the placement decision together.

The personal and academic accomplishments of the students and the professional achievements of the staff reflect the hard work and commitment of the OSD community. We invite you to learn more about the Oregon School for the Deaf, one of Oregon’s premier educational resources.
