[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In terms of level of support, if you take an AP class, you are taking a college level class with the reasonable options of accommodations one might request in a college setting. There are specific cases for one-on-one support such as interpreter for a deaf student, note taker for a physically disabled student (unable to write) etc.  [/quote]

This is incorrect. An AP class is a high school class. A high school student should be supported in an AP class per their IEP just as they would for any other class in high school. The accommodations on the AP exam itself are governed by the College Board, so the student does have to apply to the CB separately for those.

Is a co-teacher an accommodation? Not that I’ve  ever seen. An AP student would be entitled to their accommodations but I don’t see them needing specially designed instruction for AP Physics C. That’s above grade level. How does one demonstrate underachievement for grade 11 when you are taking a college level course? [/quote]
