Abstract: When determining the effects of a child's impairment(s), SSA must obtain information about the child's functioning from teachers, parents, and others who have the opportunity to observe the child on a day-to-day basis. SSA obtains results of formal testing, teacher reports, therapy progress notes, individualized education programs, and other records of a child's educational aptitude and achievement on the SSA-5665 and SSA-5666. The respondents are parents, teachers, and other education personnel.
