Camelot Center shares the commitment of Camelot Elementary School's Mission Statement to “provide an appropriate, stimulating, and challenging academic program that takes into account the individual differences of our students.”
The mission of the Auditory Oral Program at Camelot Center is to meet the individual needs of deaf and hard of hearing students by developing the academic, communication, and social skills which will enable them to reach their fullest potential. A primary emphasis of our program is the development of appropriate language and oral communication skills. Our objective is to build a strong foundation for future independence and to prepare students to participate as fully as possible in their school and home communities. This mission is accomplished through:
• Early intervention leading to the development of age appropriate skills with an emphasis on listening, speechreading, and spontaneous oral expression

• Audiological services which maximize each student's use of residual hearing

• High quality academic instruction by skilled staff

• Speech and language services encouraging each student to develop effective oral communication.

• An active partnership between home and school to optimize student achievement

• Social work and counseling services to attend to the social-developmental needs of students

• Opportunities to develop skills for self advocacy and appropriate peer interactions
