The Front Door of Memphis Oral School for the Deaf is always noticed from the road by the two painted horses stationed on our front lawn. These horses were donated by patrons of the Germantown Horse Show.
These horses help make our school recognizable to passerby's and visitors! One is painted with gift wrapping, presents, and ribbons, tying into a large fundraiser put on each year by our fundraising group Subsidium. The other horse is painted in a musical theme with notes, keyboards, violins, and other instruments which highlight the musical program at MOSD 'Play By Ear'.
