One of our goals at the Moog Center is to prepare our deaf children to successfully enter classes with hearing children when they are ready. As part of the transition from Moog School to a mainstream setting, we provide information and advocacy sessions with our parents. We also offer staff in-service and peer in-service when that is needed.

Staff In-service: A presentation for staff of the receiving school explains hearing loss with a focus on the particular student's loss, the impact on communication and learning, and recommendations for necessary support services and accommodations.

Peer In-service: An in-service for the children in the mainstream class helps them gain an understanding of what it is like to have a hearing loss and provides tips on how to talk to the student in their class who is deaf or hard-of-hearing. The presentation is geared to the children's level, and hands-on activities make this in-service program fun and easy for the children to understand.
