[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d start with a 504. It’s governed by ADA and was designed for students who need accommodations and are not behind academically. If your child can access the curriculum with modifications such as modified assignment length, scribe for answers, etc that’s where you should begin.[/quote] Does anyone know where the limit would be as far as modified assignment length? Even with a scribe and technology, he can probably get 1/4 of the work done when he isn't sick. Can they modify district level assessments, or finals for example? This isn't my kid. I'm actually a sped teacher helping a friend, but I work with little kids on alternate standards, so I don't know the ins and outs of diploma track. As an aside, 504 isn't governed by ADA. It's governed by Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. [/quote]
