Can I get shortened work with a 504 Plan????

I asked my son's guidance counselor, if we could have his assignments shortened with his 504 Plan? She said no; that he would need an IEP for that? Is this true? I thought I knew of kids who had modified work under 504? Please help!!!!

504

Yes, you CAN get shortened work with a 504 plan. My son takes forever to write, so they have cut out some of the redundant writing that the other kids have to do. My daughter also only has to do the "odd" numbers of her math problems. If your child has a therapist or a psychiatrist, have them call the school directly and tell them that they NEED their workload cut down. They usually have more clout!

Good luck! Debi
