Season 2 Episode 8: Section 504 Basic Overview




Class Act: Updates in Education Law show

Summary: You've probably heard of Section 504, but sometimes laws can be confusing and the details may be a bit fuzzy.  What's the difference between eligibility under Section 504 and IDEA? Is the "free appropriate public education" standard different for kids who have a Section 504 disability versus those who qualify under the special education statute?  What's the difference between accommodations and modifications anyway?  Join Lisa and Miriam for a fantastic overview of Section 504 with Attorney Kathy Perrico who often advises districts on Section 504 laws and regulations. Kathy, Lisa, and Miriam practice education law at Walter Haverfield in Cleveland, Ohio.
