    • Develop a list of community resources such as university-based clinics that offer psychological and educational evaluations and whether a sliding scale is available that can be provided to families.
  • Provide information that describes how the disability affects the student's learning and life in general. How does the disability functionally limit the student's performance?
  • Collect and organize documentation data in an ongoing manner as part of the transition process to make the Summary of Performance more effective and the process less burdensome.
  • Provide a comprehensive overview of the student's functional performance. Collect the most recent formal and informal measures to describe the student's abilities.
  • Include clear recommendations and explain the rationale for the accommodation requests in transition documents, because postsecondary service providers indicate the importance of these variables in their decision-making process.
  • Summary of Performance:
