I wanted to share this blog entry from The Wrightslaw Way Blog… since it seems to be a reoccurring issue… and that is that kids do NOT need to be failing their classes BEFORE they qualify for IEP or 504 plans…
check it out:

“They say he is not eligible because he does not have failing grades. Is this correct?
Nope. The law says just the opposite . . .”
