This link is to a bit of a landmark moment for us in that OCR investigated an complaint based on ineligibility. Pete Wright has posted it on wrightslaw.com.
Currently you can scroll down to the fourth paragraph when you see Peanut Allergy.
http://www.wrightslaw.com/info/sec504.index.htm
The link to the Resolution Letter is here:
http://www.wrightslaw.com/law/504/OCR.va.peanut.pdf
And the thread that deals with it is here:
http://allergy.hyperboards.com/index.php?action=view_topic&topic_id=4795
I'm quoting Notnutty from that thread because of the summary:
Jun 6th, 2008 at 07:37 am, notnutty wrote:
McCobbre: This is a very good find indeed. I quickly looked through the decision and it appears that the OCR is strongly advising the school to qualify this student based upon the evidence presented.
They have not said that the student is eligible, but are requiring the school to look at the evidence, again...even though the evidence has not changed. What else is the school to do than to qualify? If they do not find the student eligible this time, the school has to provide the OCR documentation of the decision.
Thank you for posting!
The school basically ignored the doctor's evidence that the child has LTFA and didn't produce any counter evidence (like they could). OCR ruled that the SD denied FAPE. This is a very important ruling to us. And how wonderful that OCR went beyond its typical practice. |

“The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.” Scott Peck
