Virginia School for the Deaf and Blind

As the first school for the deaf and the blind and one of the oldest schools in Virginia, the Virginia School for the Deaf and the Blind (VSDB) was established by an act of the Virginia General Assembly on March 31, 1838 and officially opened in 1839. It is nestled on 73 acres of rolling hills and surrounded by mountain views in historic Staunton. As the school celebrates almost 180 years of continued excellence in educating children who are deaf and/or blind, it remains at the forefront of educational technology. The school utilizes some of the latest and most advanced audiovisual equipment and disability tailored computer applications in its classrooms to provide its students with the best education.
