Enrollment
Listening. Speaking. Learning Together.
DePaul School is an Approved Private School under the Pennsylvania Department of Special Education. Students who are approved to attend by their neighborhood schools or Intermediate Unit are enrolled at DePaul School at no cost to the family. This only applies to students aged three and up. In most cases, this includes transportation.
DePaul School offers programs from infancy through 8th grade. We are one of only a handful of schools in the United States offering programs beyond primary grades for children who are deaf or hard of hearing. Our knowledgeable staff can evaluate your child’s needs and provide additional information to help your family determine if our program is right for your family.
This is the story of a family who moved halfway across the country for their wonderful little girl, Anna, so that she could attend DePaul School for Hearing and Speech.
