[quote=Anonymous]If you have not previously provided medical documentation of the issue, then I wouldn’t go in guns blazing about discrimination. Schools often send home letters about absences at certain trigger points; it’s a way of alerting the parents about the absences (in case the student is somehow forging notes) and prompting a discussion. Respond to the note about absences. Say that you have been a bit overwhelmed copying with DD’s illness, and you would like an opportunity to share her health issues and work collaboratively with them to figure out some accommodations while she is coping with illness so that she can graduate from middle school. Include note from doctor with a diagnosis, brief description of impact and doctor’s suggestion/support for an accommodations plan. [/quote]
