A recipient shall not apply any rule concerning a student's actual or potential parental, family, or marital status which treats students differently on the basis of sex. • Both mothers and fathers must be allowed to access supports and services. (b) Pregnancy and related conditions. (sections 1-5) • Access to school during pregnancy and recovery from pregnancy (sections 1, 2, 4 and 5) • Access to programming for mothers and fathers (section 3)

  7. Access to school during pregnancy and recovery from pregnancy: (1) A school shall not discriminate against any student, including any class or extracurricular activity, on the basis of her pregnancy, childbirth, false pregnancy, termination of pregnancy or recovery from such conditions, unless the student requests voluntarily to participate in a separate portion of the program or activity of the recipient.

  8. Access to school during pregnancy and recovery from pregnancy: (2) A school may require a physician’s certificate from a pregnant student stating that she is physically and emotionally able to continue participation so long as such a certification is required of all students for other physical or emotional conditions requiring the attention of a physician.

  9. Access to school during pregnancy and recovery from pregnancy: (4) School must treat pregnancy, childbirth, false pregnancy, termination of pregnancy and recovery from these conditions in the same way that other temporary disabilities are treated. Any policies or services that are offered to students with other temporary disabilities must be offered to pregnancy related conditions as well. (i.e. if you provide home instruction or special transportation for one disability, you must for all.)

  10. Access to school during pregnancy and recovery from pregnancy: (5) Schools must grant a leave of absence for pregnancy or pregnancy related conditions for as long as is deemed medically necessary by the student's physician. When the student returns they shall be reinstated to the status which she held when the leave began.

  11. Access to programming for mothers and fathers: (3) Schools that operate separate programs reserved for pregnant or parenting students must allow admittance to be completely voluntary on the part of the student and must ensure that the separate program is comparable to that offered to non-pregnant students.
