Independent Life Skills

We started a new ILS program in 2019 where our teachers, student life staff and student life educators come together to teach independent life skills like time management, money management, social skills, personal skills, maintenance skills, decision making skills, event planning and many more.

After School Job Training

OSD has occupational training for students interested in after school employment. This program is similar to the OTOD program where the students earn minimum wage, learn valuable work skills and develop good work ethics in various positions to prepare them for future employment after graduation. The jobs normally are on campus. Some jobs when permitted, are off campus in the community where they learn to work with and blend in with their hearing counterparts with appropriate accommodations if needed.
