Data contained in the report were collected by the Annual Survey of Hearing Impaired Children and Youth on 25,363 hearing impaired children enrolled in participating special education programs during the 1968-69 school year. Data describe the following characteristics of such children: additional handicapping conditions, age at onset of hearing loss, audiometric findings on hearing threshold levels, age, and sex. Seventy-nine schools and 63 special classes participated in the survey. The students for whom data are presented represent about one half of the total number of hearing impaired students receiving special educational services.
