PARENT & TEACHER RESOURCE GUIDE | MEETING EVERY STUDENT’S NEEDS
Help for Students with Disabilities
Students with
medical and
learning disabilities
are entitled to
special protections
under the law.
any administrators who are
charged with helping deliver
special education. The law
even provides a framework for
undiagnosed students to be
tested for disabilities within
the public school system. This
includes assessments for psy-
chological, educational, socio-
cultural and developmental
concerns, as well as testing by
physical, occupational and
speech therapists. Getting the
right services and supports for
a child with disabilities in the
classroom can greatly enhance
his educational experience
and have a profound effect on
his enthusiasm about learning.
It is important to get started as
soon as possible for the best
results.
Such laws aim to level the
playing field for students, giv-
ing them the same opportu-
nities as their peers to get a
public education and elimi-
nating discrimination.
THE LAW
Three federal laws do most
of the heavy lifting when it
comes to eliminating discrim-
ination based on disability.
Title II of the Americans
with Disabilities Act requires
public entities to make rea-
sonable modifications in poli-
cies, practices or procedures
when necessary to avoid dis-
crimination, according to the
U.S. Department of
Education.
Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973
protects the rights of individ-
uals with disabilities in pro-
grams and activities that
receive Federal financial
assistance from the U.S.
Department of Education,
enshrining the right to a “free
and appropriate public edu-
cation” (FAPE) as a civil right.
The Individuals with
Disabilities Education Act
(IDEA) is a law also includes
language about FAPE and
ensures special education
and related services for chil-
dren with disabilities.

IN PRACTICE
In the classroom, a parent of
a child with disabilities has
two important tools to help
their child a “free and appro-
priate public education.”
A 504 plan. A child with
medical or learning disabilities
who needs special supports or
accommodations to gain a
FAPE is entitled to what is
known as a “504 plan.” This is
a legal document that lays out
what the school must do to
accommodate the child’s
needs. This can include
accommodations such as pref-
erential seating, modified text-
books or other learning mate-
rials, reduced load of home-
work or classwork, visits to the
nurse’s office for medications
or other needs, and services
such as occupational or physi-
cal therapy.
An IEP. A child who has a
disability specified under
IDEA is entitled to an individ-
ualized educational plan, or
IEP. An IEP sets measurable
annual goals for a child and
outlines any accommodations
or services a child needs to be
successful in meeting those
goals. This often includes
guaranteed weekly minutes for
services such as physical,
speech or occupational thera-
py, a list of accommodations
and other supports that will be
provided, and information
about how much time the stu-
dent will spend in the regular
classroom with non-disabled
students vs. special ed set-
tings.
HOW TO TAKE ACTION
If your child has been diag-
nosed with a disability, reach
out to your child’s teacher and
Federal law also provides
services to help parents under-
stand what their child is enti-
tled to under the law and
access those benefits. Each
state has a federally funded
Parent Training and
Information Center specifically
designed to do just that. Find
your state’s center at parent-
centerhub.org/find-your-cen-
ter.
If possible, hiring a private
special education advocate
can make an enormous impact
on how effectively you can
advocate for your child. The
law on special education is
complex and can be daunting
to the lay person. An educated,
experienced advocate knows
the ins and outs of the law and
can help you access the bene-
fits to which your child is enti-
tled and get results.
