As an alternative to cleaning the kitchen, I looked up some good websites for students with and without disabilities. I tried for exact addresses, but you may need to dig at times: learning.guide.com, test.taking.tips.com, studygs.net, scholarship.com, how-to-study.com, Here are some personal favorites 1) smu.edu and search for ALEC There is good stuff for students with and without disabilities in 10 pages of downloadable loot. 2) ed.gov/about/offices/ocr/transition However you get there, you want the OCR section of the Department of Education. Click on reading room and if it gets picky you want the Section on the ADA. Two excellent pieces are Students with Disabilities Preparing for Postsecondary Education: Know your Rights and Responsibilities and Transition of Students with Disabilities to Postsecndary Education: A Guide for High School Educators. You will find interesting dear colleague letters and links to other websites. 3) SAT and ACT have study guides etc. Both tell you how to qualify for accommodations. This is the transition to stage between high school and college. 4) Look to AHEAD.org for greater discussion of documentation and go to ETS for more. If you find any more cool stuff, let me know. The kitchen is calling and reminding me to remind you that IEPs and formal plans end with high school graduation. These high school documents are interesting but don't satisfy the requirements of the ADAAA2008 and Section 504 because they are civil rights laws.Truly bye, z
