[quote=Anonymous][quote]One more question: What is my DD's right to privacy about her disability? (To clarify to the PP, I gave the school copies of the report from the licensed clinician stating that DD has a learning disability. There's nothing retroactive here. They knew DD has a disability before she set foot inside the school.)

If DD were to go before this peer panel and argue that her disability influenced her choice to use the incorrect calculator, she would be revealing confidential information about her medical condition to a bunch of 8th graders and some teachers she doesn't know.

I thought you said that she definitely was not going in front of the panel.  If she did, why would she disclose any information about her disability?  Why wouldn't she just explain that that was the only calculator that she had, that she did not use the forbidden functions, and show the panel that she did not use the functions based upon the answers/info on her test that you say evidences that.[/quote]
