    504/ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) Supplementary Tutoring is stated on a student's 504 Plan or IEP (Individualized Education Plan). The 504 Plan and IEP must identify Supplementary Tutoring.

    The nurse at the student’s home school must track illnesses and notify the Home/Hospital Nurse Christine Proctor or the Home/Hospital Assignment Coordinator Michele Mazzola when the student meets the designated threshold of absences.

    Supplementary tutoring can take place once a student is absent 10 or more days from school due to the documented illness.

    *Elementary students receive 1 hour, 1 time per week.

    *Secondary students receive 1 hour, 2 times per week.

    The 504 Plans must be written and reviewed annually by the student’s home school psychologist. ADA requests are stated on an IEP.
