My son had health issues and the school totally failed him! Had a brain injury and was in rehab 3 days a week and was home bound the teacher would not give the homebound teach work assignments and my son recieved a 35% in her class. When I asked about the 504 action plain that was in place I was told "it was to wordy" After 4 years filling out the 504 for him brain injury I found out the school never flagged him as having a heath problem!
