[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a difference between the IEP and 504. For the IEP you need to show the need for specialized instruction. For the 504 you are only identifying a disability that needs accommodation. We went through this process with my DD (also ADHD inattentive). We received a 504 plan. The key to success in the process for us was showing interference with our child's ability to access the curriculum. Children don't have to be failing school. In our case, we could show falling behind with the actual worksheets in class and developing a dislike for school, although all academic indicators were "fine" according to the teacher (or even above grade level). We were not successful obtaining an IEP because the neurospsych eval really only indicated accommodations.[/quote] Do you just go in and request the 504? Is it important to have the actual 504 versus the school just doing some accommodations informally? Curious.[/quote]
