1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTeachers tend to ignore 504s and IEPS. I have autism and a sensitivity to loud noises. I wear noise-reducing wireless headphones as a result. I had a meltdown in the office because they refused to let me have noise-canceling headphones due to the "no Bluetooth devices" rule. They said the rule overrides my 504, which is done not. We had set up a meeting the next week, but they went ahead and pulled me out of class with no warning. When I started getting defensive they brought me to my counselor's office, which is small and can not fit more than 8 people properly. Long story short I had a panic attack and the staff stood there a stared, my counselor offered me a drink which I appreciated. Overall the people who care about children's education here make it obvious, and they do it for "easy money". We have had to fight the school every year to keep my 504.Student Review1y ago - Lombard Middle School
