[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can also qualify for a 504 Plan under the ADA which would provide accommodations such extended time on tests, preferred seating, and other reasonable accommodations.[/quote] 504 Plans are based on Section 504 of the 1973 Act. The ADA mandates disability accommodation, but that does not equate for a 504 plan, which carries with it certain rights and obligations. MCPS often tries to get away with providing very skimpy accommodations when a kid is really qualified for a 504 plan and more robust accommodations. that's illegal BTW - to deny a qualified kid a 504 plan but say "well anyway we gave you this other not-504 plan".[/quote]
