Halifax School for the Deaf
(The Halifax School for the Blind was opened on Morris Street in 1871.)There was later a dispute over who the true founder was, William Gray (1806-1881), a deaf Scottish immigrant who was the first teacher in the back room of a house in Argyle Street, or George Tait (1828-1904), another deaf Scot, who claimed to have been the driving force behind the establishment of the school.[2] Gray was sacked in 1870 for being intoxicated and for threatening pupils with violence.Following the Halifax Explosion, the main building was temporarily closed for repairs.[6] A monument marks the location of the home, which was erected by the Eastern Canada Association of the Deaf.
