Clarke Northampton

Welcome to Clarke School! Parents who choose Clarke have made a very important decision; one that will affect their child's outlook, adjustment and future success in and out of school. Clarke School uses the auditory/oral approach to prepare deaf students, ages 0 to 15, for eventual transition into public and/or private schools with their hearing peers. At Clarke, parents will find a unique learning environment designed to maximize deaf children's auditory/oral language skills. We help each child to develop a foundation made up of confidence, love, sense of self-worth and pride. Our staff are committed to providing the best learning atmosphere for deaf children. We share in parents' commitment to provide children with the best preschool/kindergarten and early primary education. We focus on the whole child. As we strive to carry out this important mission, may the spirit of mutual cooperation, support and encouragement lead to a wonderful and successful experience at Clarke School.
