This is certainly something that goes more smoothly at some schools than others. We've gotten some traction on getting DS more physical activity during the day, but we're not yet to a point that will fully satisfy his needs. For us, it's been a cycle of bringing the need to the school, not getting much, then the teacher being frustrated and seeking help. Small interventions are being shown to help but not fix things. We're now in the process of making the case that more significant interventions can help further.
In parallel, we're working to help DS see how well he responds to physical activity. He's begun to advocate for himself as well, which seems to carry more weight than the 504 document.
