During the month of June, Tennessee Schools for the Deaf will be offering four weeks of academic programming for students K-12 on the TSD Knoxville campus. The four weeks will be centered around themes, and each week will be “stand-alone” as opposed to being continuous. Lessons will be designed to stimulate a language-rich environment with lots of hands-on activities and field trips.

To register your student, please fill out the survey provided. Deadline to register is April 16th. For more information, please see the attached flyer.

WTSD will be closing today, Thursday 3/25, at 11:30 am CST due to severe weather.

The department is seeking up to two qualified contractors to conduct a program review at the TSD. This includes the Knoxville campus, Nashville campus, and West Tennessee campus in Jackson. The purpose of the program review is to assess program quality, viability, and facilitate appropriate program improvement.
