Section 504
The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, commonly known as Section 504, is a federal law passed by the United States Congress with the purpose of prohibiting discrimination against people with disabilities who participate in, or receive benefits from, programs receiving federal financial assistance. In the public schools, specifically Section 504 ensures that all eligible students with disabilities are provided with educational benefits and opportunities equal to those provided to non-disabled students. Any questions regarding Section 504 should be directed to the District Section 504 Coordinator or to your child's school counselor.
