[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A 504 gets you accommodations, not services. Unlikely that an aide would be considered an accommodation.[/quote] This. Speaking as a teacher who oversees paras, while they have their benefits and uses, and can be immensely helpful, a dedicated aide can also quickly become a crutch or a distraction. Unless it was a medical issue (e.g. a para for a child with a severe seizure disorder) I wouldn't want a para for my child unless they had very significant needs, which would likely mean they qualified for an IEP.[/quote]
