Grace's Dad

I would definately have things set up where she has a 504 plan or iep.

It takes a little more to get a IEP in most states. So it might be that
they have to do psychoeducational testing, or they may need to
see that she is struggling and her grades are suffering.

But a 504 plan takes mainly a medical doctor to say she has this problem.
PCS, and needs to be considered for a 504 plan.

I would definately have the neuro see if lighting effects her. And remember
different buildings have different lighting. She may need to wear sunglasses
in the halls. Between classes. Or she might need to change classes at
a different time than others. So the noise and other problems aren't a problem.

These are things that can go in a 504 plan.

Now for the schooling side, also have it put in she gets extra time for homework. And test. This is so if she is exhausted she can wait to do
the work.

It might also be that a reduced day for a while will help her. And that
she needs a tutor.

These are all things that can be in a 504 plan. If you need more help
let me know.

I'm a parent advocate in Indiana.
