What is the timeline for completing an evaluation for eligibility for Section 504?
There is no set timeline. Unlike Special Education, Section 504 allows for a reasonable time frame. Ask for the evaluation in writing. Keep a copy of your request. If you do not hear back from the Special Education Director within 30 days, call and write him/her again. Sometimes you may need the assistance of an advocacy organization (such as Allies with Families) to speed this along.
