Abstract	The purpose of this project was to develop recommendations and plans for program, personnel, and facilities for a new Horace Mann Center for the Deaf as a replacement for and an expansion of the present school. The project staff's initial proposal took into account the existing background, programs, and needs of the deaf in Massachusetts. The overall recommendations at this stage of the project called for construction on the same site as a new elementary school; establishment of satellite elementary and resource secondary classes; an evaluation center; a nursery-kindergarten unit which would include parental involvement; an elementary school unit; a secondary level-adult unit; common facilities such as library, instructional material center, cafeteria, auditorium, physical education and recreational facilities, prevocational industrial arts and home economic areas; and preparation of professional personnel and research programs. Areas requiring further planning include enrollments and size of faculty, planning the adjacent elementary school, costs and funding, administrative structure, recruiting and hiring of personnel, professional training, the problems of residential facilities and non-aural systems of communication, and vocational rehabilitation of deaf adults. Appendixes and a 138-item bibliography are presented. (Author/RP)
