Welcome

Whether you are a prospective parent, client, or a community member, we welcome you to The Learning Center for the Deaf.  

One of our core guiding values of TLC is inclusivity.  We value the perspectives, identity and contributions of each member of our community and celebrate its rich diversity.  We extend this value to all those new to TLC who wish to learn more about our work and services.

Are you a parent, local resident, college or university student, interpreter, community or civic leader, member of a high school club, or an educator?  We welcome you to visit with us and learn more about the resources available at The Learning Center for the Deaf.

When you visit TLC, you will learn about our rich history and pioneering work.  Depending on your interests, you may visit our school programs, our Deaf Cultural Center, meet with program leaders, and participate in other activities to make your experience at TLC most meaningful and memorable.

Communication Guidelines

Did you know American Sign Language is the primary language of communication on campus?  

Those new to our community, or learning American Sign Language, are encouraged to use ASL to the best of their ability.

Interpreter services are scheduled in advance for visitors who are new to ASL to ensure that communication is barrier-free.

Our goal is that all individuals on our campus, from students to employees to clients to visitors, feel included, respected and welcomed.

Deaf Cultural Center

Our Deaf Cultural Center, housed in the historic Kellogg home, showcases curated artifacts of Deaf history throughout the ages. Our Deaf History Mural, developed by renowned Deaf artist Chuck Baird, offers a stunning chronology of Deaf history. 

Community Events

We host a wide range of events and activities on our campus from ASL performances to professional development trainings for interpreters and teachers to arts and craft fairs to conferences. Our campus is available for local community and Deaf organizations and clubs. Please contact us if you are interested in using our campus facilities for your next event or meeting!

Sporting Events

Our  Galloping Ghosts home games are played on our main campus inside the Schwab Gymnasium.

Athletics that we offer include: soccer, volleyball, basketball, baseball, track and field, and softball. We compete against local private schools, as well as schools for the deaf around the country.
