En lenguaje sencillo

Alabama educates most of its deaf and hard of hearing students in their local school systems and runs one state institution for the rest. The Alabama Institute for Deaf and Blind in Talladega, founded in 1858, operates the Alabama School for the Deaf, the Helen Keller School for students with sensory loss and additional disabilities, an outreach service that sends specialists into public schools across the state, ten regional centers that provide early intervention for infants and services for adults, and the state deafblind project.

Alabama residents pay nothing for tuition, room, board or the buses home. The state counted 842 students with hearing impairment in October 2024, 150 of them in the Institute's own schools, and 874 a year later. The state budget gives the Institute about 85.6 million dollars for the year beginning October 2026, pays a separate 8.5 million dollar line for licensed interpreters and teachers of the deaf in the local systems, and names a private spoken language school and a school called Southwest School of Deaf and Blind in lines of their own. Of the 153 local systems, five publish a deaf program or a deaf education post of their own: Mobile County operates the Callahan School for the Deaf and Blind, Shelby County names a Deaf and Hard of Hearing department, and DeKalb, Jackson and Calhoun counties name a teacher of the hearing impaired.

Fifty-six systems mention hearing impairment, mostly as a category on an eligibility list, and eighty-eight publish nothing about it on the pages read. Four could not be read on either day. The school for the deaf teaches in American Sign Language from preschool and also runs a listening and spoken language program, and no local system names the Institute's outreach service on its own site.
