Just speculating, but personally, I wonder if they'd really be happy with a plain-text solution.
IMO, it sounds like the school doesn't want to make the accommodations for an unstated reason, and is looking for ways to say so without having to be explicit. They can't be explicit, because they'd be setting themselves up for trouble.
It might help to remind them that the state would come down hard on them if it found out that they were giving big accommodations to a student during a high-stakes test, but not at other times. Phew. That would be bad for the school.
