The only option they gave me was a 504 plan saying as he was going to be entering High School soon that was the best they could do.<br \/>\nIs this correct? I feel\/see he needs way more help than what they have implemented for him on the 504 plan. How do I request better assistance at school when it comes to his education. I feel he is just falling behind as a Freshman and nothing is being done. We usually spend 2 hrs after school trying to assist as much as possible at home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cecelia: My son has epilepsy and was diagnosed in the spring of 2015 when he was in 7th grade. it took the district until the Spring of 2016, 2 months <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/eligibility-epileptic-child-no-iep-only-504-plan\/\">Continue Reading \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1342],"tags":[1348],"class_list":["post-20989","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-question","tag-e"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20989","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20989"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20989\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23911,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20989\/revisions\/23911"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20989"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20989"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrightslaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20989"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
