Welcome!!! The first thing I'd say is to check on your state mandates. If you're in a mandated state an IEP is likely to give you more protections than a 504 plan. At least that is how it is in my state. Although I'm finding that just because the mandates are there doesn't mean they will automatically follow them. I'm having to read everything, and advocate within their rules. Seems to be working, talk to me in a year and I'll know wink

Once you check state mandates, then go on your district website and start checking district rules and regulations. Knowing their language and actual written policies has been huge for me!

Good luck!!!
