Statewide School Outreach

Statewide School Outreach Referral Form

Statewide School Outreach services, through Tennessee Schools for the Deaf (TSD), are provided to schools across the state at no cost through the Tennessee Department of Education. The TSD School Outreach team will schedule a consultation with any school at the request of a district or school leadership, direct service providers for students who are deaf and hard of hearing, classroom teachers, or parents. The mission of the Statewide School Outreach team is to provide collaborative support for the educational team in meeting the needs of students who are deaf and hard of hearing in schools across Tennessee.
