School Notes

Our school provides children who are deaf or hard of hearing, and their hearing peers, with a strong academic foundation and specialized support to help them excel. Through individualized instruction, advanced listening and spoken language strategies, and a collaborative learning environment, we prepare every student to thrive academically and become confident, active participants in a hearing world.
Our doors are always open to every child with hearing loss who can benefit from our program.
Sunshine Cottage has been preparing students for life in the hearing world since 1947 when Dela White started the school for her 18-month-old daughter who is profoundly deaf.
Mrs. White believed that if given the opportunity, children with hearing impairment could learn to listen, speak and live a full, self-reliant life.
Her belief has been richly rewarded through thousands of Sunshine Cottage students who have left our school to lead rewarding lives.
We invite you to explore our website and contact us with any questions you may have.
Sunshine Cottage knows that children with hearing loss can be an active part of the hearing world.
We teach children with mild to profound hearing loss to communicate naturally and effectively using intelligible speech and pleasant-sounding voices, without the use of sign language.
From newborns through fourth grade, children thrive in a supportive educational environment with an excellent clinical and teaching staff and state-of-the-art technology.

Sunshine Cottage promotes early identification and intervention for children who are deaf or hard of hearing, helping them reach their full potential through listening, spoken language, and literacy.
