Section 504

Program Summary

Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibits discrimination against persons with disabilities. This federal civil rights law requires that students with disabilities receive a free and appropriate education. Students with a physical or mental impairment limiting one or more major life activities may qualify for a 504 plan.

To determine 504 eligibility, a student must demonstrate, as a result of an evaluation, to have a physical or mental disability/impairment (or having a history of a physical or mental disability/impairment) that substantially limits one or more major life activities. A major life activity includes the following: caring for one’s self, performing manual tasks, walking, seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing, working, and learning.

At Georgia Cyber Academy, we are committed to providing all our students with an exemplary, individualized, and engaging educational experience. This policy and procedure manual has been created to assist staff working with our families who may need a 504 plan for their children.
