Audiology
The Tucker-Maxon instructional program depends on each child learning to use whatever hearing remains to the fullest extent possible. For this to happen, each child must be wearing the most appropriate amplification possible including modern and well-fitting earmolds. Classroom teachers check amplification functioning on a daily basis. In addition, hearing aids are checked electroacoustically every other week. Our classrooms utilize the most advanced sound field equipment.
In 1984, Tucker-Maxon established the world's first school-based cochlear implant program. Currently we have a working relationship with Oregon Health Science University in Portland. We are able to provide all services for Nucleus, Advanced Bionics, and MedEl multichannel implants.
Audiological services are included in tuition for children with hearing loss. Tucker-Maxon provides services for non Tucker-Maxon students according to a fee schedule.
