Absence of FCAT Accommodations for
Child with Disability Drives Parent to Consider Home Schooling
By A Hillsborough Parent
My son has a disability and a 504 plan which clearly states that he can use a
keyboard for written standardized tests. He also had a provision on the 504 to
take the test in a small group for organizational concentration. He was not
encouraged or allowed either of these requirements. 504 bonuses are much more
important than the well-being of our children. Zero-tolerance is as detrimental
to the freedom of being a child. School should not be like Military Boot Camp.
Uniforms, kids in straight lines, no taking or they get conduct points,
snitching is required on fellow school mates. Bullying, however, seems to be
overlooked. Home schooling is looking better by the month. -- Hillsborough
