[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Leaving class 3 min early to beat the hallway crush is the most common accommodation I know of. Kids receive this all the time, including on a temporary basis (for broken limbs). [b]I don't know if a 504 is necessary for this. [/b]The 504 coordinator is the child's assigned school counselor so you should ask that person. [/quote] I see schools try to offer “health plans” even where the kid qualifies for a 504. The health plan is less enforceable - don’t accept it if your kid qualifies for a 504. Chronic or recurring conditions qualify for a 504 - provided they “significantly impact activities of daily living”, which includes things like walking. Also, if your kid is going to need accommodations in college, you want the documented history of a 504 plan. [/quote]
