  1. I had to LOL about the five generic accommodations. This is a screenshot from one of mine. Like clockwork.
  2. Thank you so much for the detailed response. I am meeting with an administrator in about 20 minutes. I am going to point out several of the things you mentioned, including those three points to look for in a student's plan. After this meeting I will ask for more resources if it goes nowhere. Thanks again, and have a great afternoon.
  3. Thank you for taking my question. My school (either admin or the ESE department) has adopted a policy in which every 504 student gets one extra day on all assignments, regardless of disability, strengths and weaknesses, course, etc. In my novice attempt to learn about 504 plans, it seems that they all should be customized to fit the needs of that particular student, and that a boilerplate accommodation for everyone doesn't actually meet anyone's needs. This has caused problems with teachers because the extra day often doesn't make sense given the context of the assignment. Now we have the ESE department telling teachers that we are breaking the law if we don't follow the 504 plan. We get that, but we feel that the 504 plans are being poorly (and lazily) developed to begin with. I would appreciate any thoughts from the experts here.
