North Branford Public Schools follow federal and state law under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. Section 504 is a federal civil rights law providing protection for students with disabilities. If you or your physician suspect your child has a disability under Section 504, you can communicate this to your building administrator or school nurse. A 504 meeting will be scheduled to review your concerns and medical reports you may provide and consider eligibility under 504. The team may determine that additional information is needed from a physician or may want to gather additional information related to school performance. If your child is determined eligible under Section 504, the team will create a 504 Accommodation Plan.
