可及性服务 for Dual-Enrolled High School Students
The requirements and procedures relating to accessibility services differ between public schools (K through 12) and colleges. The plan of accommodation provided by COA may not mirror accommodations provided in the high school setting. 虽然我们会努力保持一致, accommodations included in 504 and IEP plans written at the high school level may not always be offered through COA. The 可及性服务 Coordinator will review documentation provided by the student or high school, and develop a plan of accommodation based on the student’s needs. 一旦住宿计划制定好, the Accessibility Coordinator will send it to the high school to be signed by the student and school representative and returned. 一旦收到签署的文件, the student’s professors will receive the accommodation notices.
Plans of accommodation must be updated and signed each calendar year. 如果接受考试安排, students must request the accommodation 48 business hours before the exam.
