OP here, we do have a seizure action plan on file with the nurse (though it is not memorialized through a 504 - maybe it should be?).

To add, you don't need to have learning challenges. A 504 would be appropriate for someone with allergies to keep them apart from the allergen or a student with mobility disabilities who needs access to the elevator. What, if anything, does your student need to access school (either physically or otherwise)?

Hi, if your child has epilepsy, do you have a 504 plan in place? My 3rd grader has epilepsy (appears to be controlled by daily antiseizure meds but still in first year of taking it). His seizures are tonic clonic. No learning delays or academic challenges that have been identified. Trying to understand the pros of getting a 504 anyway? Is there a longer term reason to do this?
