Section 504 Accommodations

Section 504 Accommodations

Students with a disability are entitled to a free appropriate public education and equal access to services, programs, and activities offered by the district. Students are eligible for Section 504 accommodations if they meet the following three criteria:  (1) A mental or physical impairment (2) which substantially limits (3) one ore more major life activities.  All three criteria must be present for a student to be eligible for a Section 504 accommodation plan.  Equally important, this disability must be why the student cannot equally access or receive benefit from the school's programs and services.
