Update your emergency contact information to keep your child safe (En español)
As we begin the new semester, we’re encouraging all parents to update emergency contact information with your child's school.
Why it matters: It's important to have someone on file who you trust and who can assist with your child in case of an emergency, such as:
Section 504 Complaint Form
If your child has a physical or mental disability, they may be eligible for Section 504 services and supports. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 is the civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability; and guarantees individuals with disabilities equal access to an education.
How can I file a complaint? What rights do I have?
Local school districts are responsible for implementing Section 504 Plans, a first step is to contact the campus Principal and the campus Section 504 coordinator to discuss your concerns.
