The Moog Center for Deaf Education is an American school in St. Louis, Missouri, founded in 1996 by oralist educator Jean Sachar Moog.
The Moog Center is an independent, not-for-profit school that provides education services to children with hearing loss and their families from birth to early elementary years.
Eight certified Moog programs offer oral education for deaf and hard-of-hearing children and their families:
The curriculum's focus is accelerating spoken language development and, when the children are ready, helping them learn the same subjects as their hearing age-mates to catch up and fully participate in the mainstream.
