  15. Things to Remember about 504 • Legal Document just like an IEP • Accommodation Plans are written as a team, don’t miss your opportunity to voice what accommodations should be in place. Go to the meetings! • Accommodations are not just for academic needs, sometimes it can be as simple as letting a child leave a minute early to get to class or carry water with them.

  16. Continued… • Students with a 504 plan have a right to privacy so be discreet. • All students can have accommodations to help them be successful. (It’s the right thing to do!) • If a child is not succeeding with the current accommodations, then the plan needs to be revisited quickly to make appropriate changes.
