Tysta skolan
Tysta skolan ('The Silent School') was a private school for deaf-mute children founded in 1860 by educator Johanna (Jeanette) Berglind in Stockholm, Sweden. The name refers to the initial teaching method, which was described as the "write-sign method". From 1866 to 1910, the school was located on a property at Norrtullsgatan 51–67 in present-day Vasastan. It was then moved to Lidingö where it initially provided practical and theoretical continuing education for deaf-mute girls before being converted into a vocational school in the 1930s. The school moved back to Stockholm in 1947 where it continued to teach until its closure in 1971. The Tysta Skolan Foundation continues to exist and distributes the income from the funds in the form of scholarships and grants.
