Maybe approach the teacher and ask for permission to email missed assignments in from home?

Not a bad idea. We would have to scan them...but they're just sitting there in her folder. However, I wonder if this would be considered a "request for special treatment," coddling, etc.

From what I am told about my district, is is very hard to get a 504 for a high-performing student. DD may get a C in this class, but it could be a B (depends on how she weights things) and is likely to get As or at worst high Bs in everything else. She is in advanced or acclerated-track classes for everything except, ironically, this class (it's an elective).
