[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 71349, member: 23"] Whether 504 or IEP, no matter the child's diagnosis, the child's behavior OR academics must be adversely impacting education. To qualify for a 504, the student's problem has to adversely impact a major life activity. It's much easier to qualify for a 504 than an IEP, however, 504's are near impossible to enforce. If social skills are a problem, that's a major life activity. It's my recommendation that you write a letter requesting a full and inital evaluation under IDEA. You can always fall back on a 504 if difficult child doesn't qualify for an IEP. I've posted a sample letter thread several times recently, so it should be hard to find it. Additionally, there are others in the Special Education Archives. I'm at work now, but will check back later, but these threads will get you started.
