This document presents the Kansas State Department of Education's guidelines to Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The guidelines specifically address Subparts A, B, C, and D of the regulations for Section 504 which deal with general provisions, employment practices, accessibility and education. An introduction offers examples of how school systems can discriminate against individuals with disabilities and is followed by definitions common to both laws and a list of acronyms. An overview of Section 504 summarizes each subpart and charts responsibilities under the law of various individuals and groups. The next section compares Section 504, the ADA, and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. Eight procedural requirements under the law are then explained. A section on accommodations and services lists strategies under the following categories: environmental, organizational, behavioral, presentation, methodology, and curriculum. A list of 98 effective accommodations and services precedes examples of accommodations for 19 specific disabilities. Twenty-eight common questions and answers conclude the guide. Appendices include: the text of Section 504 and regulations, sample forms, sample accommodation plans, guidelines for student discipline under Section 504, a physical accessibility checklist, recent Office of Civil Rights (OCR) rulings, and important OCR policy letters.
