  • 504 Plans

    Tune in to take a look at 504 plans. Section 504 is federal civil rights law under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) administers Section 504—not the State. A 504 plan is designed to give students with disabilities or medical conditions equal access to the general education curriculum. We will explore accommodations and how they can be used to level the playing field for learners.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

    Upon completion, participants will be able to:

    Summarize what Section 504 provides to students with disabilities
    List examples of accommodations
    Locate 504 resources
