[quote=Anonymous]OP - did the school team put in writing that the reason your child was denied 504 accommodations was because he is passing? If so, you should file a 504 complaint with your school system or take the issue to the US Department of Education Office of Civil Rights. All you are asking for are reasonable accommodations for your child’s disability so your child can have equal access to the curriculum. Your child may even qualify for an IEP so independent learning skills are taught, but a private tutor may be more beneficial than a reluctant school system. Have you tried asking for an IEP meeting as a way to revisit the issue? Even for an IEP, courts have ruled that a child may be passing from grade to grade but still need special education services. Your school knows the law but is just testing your resolve to challenge them. Ask to record your next meeting and those types of rejections will probably disappear or you will have clear evidence of the discrimination.[/quote]
