[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nothing like telling a kid he is "disabled" in order to build his self-esteem![/quote] If they are in fact disabled then yes it's something they should be aware of. I have conversations with my elementary-aged after every IEP meeting Kids are required to attend their 504 meetings once in HS and this has been amazing for my oldest to learn how to advocate for herself. And yes, right there on the 504 form, it will say they are a student with a disability. That is the correct terminology and using other terms like "special needs" just stigmatizes them.[/quote]
