[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is is fair for a kid with poor eyesight to be allowed to wear glasses? For a kid with asthma to take steroids? The accommodations you reference are to make it it fair for kids with specific disabilities so that they can access the curriculum and show their actual knowledge without the impediment of a disability.

You have no idea whether their issues are mild or not. Someone with more knowledge than you has determined that the accommodation was both necessary and fair.[/quote]

This.

Also,  OP,  does your kid have some diagnosis that interferes with his ability to participate in other ECs? Doesn't seem so, so that indicates that it is his choice,  not some type of disability.  Seriously,  you want to say that kids who get accommodations to try to be on a level playing field have it better than your kid? You really don't understand what it's like to have a disability.

Finally,  all kids in MCPS could get free extra help this year through TutorMe. [/quote]
