On the Call: Accommodations in Student Activities

Jeremy Neff and Erin Wessendorf-Wortman Season 4 Episode 6

Trying to avoid the drama over extracurricular accommodation requests? In this episode, Erin and Jeremy discuss a case from Wisconsin where a district properly denied a parent’s request for a paraprofessional aide to accompany their daughter during the school’s musical rehearsals. They provide practical tips for handling accommodation requests for nonacademic and extracurricular activities to ensure your district is hitting all the right notes.
