Clarke School for the Deaf Northampton, MA - Announcements

Classroom Acoustic Research -- Clarke is conducting a groundbreaking study to determine how classroom noise and reverberation affect students’ ability to hear in class and what can be done to help minimize these issues.  Clarke is currently seeking children ages 5-16 with any level of hearing loss, mild to severe-to-profound, to participate in this important research.  Testing takes about two hours and parents will receive an individual report on their child’s classroom hearing that can be useful in educational planning.

 

Comprehensive Educational Evaluations -- Designed specifically for deaf and hard of hearing students in preschool through high school, Comprehensive Educational Evaluations provide an in-depth understanding of each child’s particular hearing loss and its effect upon his or her academic experience.  Audiological, Language, Academic, Speech and Psychological evaluations are integrated to provide interdisciplinary analysis and detailed written recommendations that help in making effective educational decisions.
