[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If she's not physically able to attend school, they're temporarily disabled. You need to talk to your school and Local Education Agency (LEA) about that. One way - you could request an IEP meeting. Bring documentation showing she can't physically attend for X time. She'll qualify temporarily for special education under the Other Health Impairments classification. The Local Education Agency will be responsible for ensuring she continues to have access to the curriculum - perhaps through tutoring, through online schooling, etc. Once she is able to physcially return, she'll no longer qualify for special education. Maybe the LEA will try for a 504 plan instead but I don't see how that could work. [/quote]

10:15 again and in my child’s situation, we did qualify for homebound services.  It was a personal choice to unenroll instead for us since we wanted the flexibility of the summer and we didn’t know how long the medical condition would last or if and how long there would be hospitalization.   Ask about homebound services if you haven’t and the options this poster suggested. [/quote]
