[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, I understand that you don't want to say where you live, but is your dd in a private school? The laws regarding IEP's ad 504 plans only apply to public schools.[/quote] If it's private she has no "legal rights" in this matter at all.[/quote] ADA and HIPPA applies everywhere.[/quote] Incorrect. Private schools do not have to comply with IEPs. Nor do colleges or universities, public or private. I don't think there is a HIPPA issue here. I've never heard of anyone using HIPPA in a school setting.[/quote] The ADA cannot be applied retroactively, as in, let me tell you about my disability in order to escape from this thing that is now happening to me. If you provide evidence of a disability, the school is responsible to provide accommodations for the future. It's not a get-out-of-jail-free card.[/quote] She is not applying it retroactively. The mother agrees there should be a consequence for using the wrong calculator decided by an intelligent and companionate adult. Her daughter has a medical condition called "anxiety". It may be GAD or social anxiety I am not sure. Her medical condition makes it so she can not go in front a review board of her peer. My child with anxieties would begin having physical twitches and verbal tics in this situation. Usually my child would be fine with minor blinking. But put in this situation, his medical condition would cause dire medical consequences that could cause lasting affects. Her daughter has anxiety and the peer review could cause depression or some other reaction. She has the right to privacy. To the poster above - it is not true that private schools and universities don't comply with IEPs. See link to the accomodations provided by Georgetown http://guarc.georgetown.edu/disability/accommodations/request/. OP - are you in the dc metro area. I have never hear of a private so dense. If it is catholic they do honor IEPs.[/quote]
