This presentation will focus on the application of Section 504 and Title II in schools. We will cover the laws protecting physical accessibility in schools, covering aspects such as doors, sidewalks, hallways, parking, and access to facilities for guests, guardians and students. We will discuss the federal laws that apply to public and charter schools and almost all colleges and universities, and how these laws, when correctly implemented, should eliminate barriers to education from pre-k through college and beyond. Additionally, we will review how Section 504 protects students’ fair access to the classroom and day-to-day learning environment – including ways to help schools craft the best 504 plan for an individual student’s specific needs.
