Programs
Multicultural Teachers of the Deaf have developed programs based on the premise that WE (parents, educators and the community) are the most important elements within a Deaf students life. Our programs are centered on supporting each element of the students life to ensure they have an understanding of how social and cultural norms impact their academics. Our Programs include:
