[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for this! The tip about an Engineering Technology degree is a good one. I have just looked into this and it seems a good option if he struggles with the higher level math (although hoping that will be easier). We are going to get him set up with accommodations. Would a 504 or an IEP be more beneficial for this type of kid? [/quote] It depends on if he needs "specialized instruction" (for an IEP) vs just needing accommodations (for a 504). You'd probably want to talk with the school to figure out which one best fits his needs. For example, my 2E son had an IEP up through middle school (because the curriculum had to be modified with shorter or alternate assignments), but by the end of middle school he didn't need the modifications and so we switched to a 504 for high school.
