The Maryland School for the Deaf was established in 1868 as a free
public residential school for deaf and hard-of-hearing children who
reside in the State. The Governor appoints the 30 members of the
Board of Visitors for indefinite terms (Acts 1867, chap. 247; 1868,
chap. 409; 1880, chap. 19; 1916, chap. 76; 1957, chap. 148 as amended).
The school offers an academic education similar to that of public
schools and in addition provides thorough instruction in speech read-
ing, speech, auditory training, and use of individual hearing aids. It
offers vocational training to boys in industrial arts, printing and wood-
working, and gives training in homemaking courses to girls. Extra-
curricular activities in athletics, scouts, social activities, and clubs are
planned for all students. Vocational rehabilitation services are avail-
able to all graduates who seek jobs, special vocational training, or
higher education. The average enrollment is 182.
