The "New" Section 504: Student Issues in the Wake of the ADAAA
Hardcastle, Lisa A.; Zirkel, Perry A.
Journal of Cases in Educational Leadership, v15 n4 p32-39 Dec 2012
School leaders are familiar with the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act, but they also need to be legally literate about Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. This need is particularly pressing in the wake of significant recent changes in Section 504 as a result of the Americans With Disabilities Amendments Act. This case illustrates the eligibility and entitlement of a student with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder under Section 504 before and after these amendments. Would you be able to take the legally correct course of action if you were Amy Davidson? Do you have legally current and defensible answers to the discussion questions?
