This essential resource details what it means to provide an equal opportunity to participate in extracurriculars regardless of the nature or degree of a student's disability.

With explanations of IDEA and Section 504 mandates plus quick-read case summaries, you learn about compliant and noncompliant district actions — plus valuable dos and don'ts to guide your decision-making. Avoid denying students the right to participate by learning how to:

  • Apply the participation requirement to field trips and class excursions
  • Apply the participation requirement to clubs, special interest groups, social events and meals
  • Spot potential areas of liability for a third party's actions, such as discrimination by an interscholastic athletic association
  • Recognize when modifying an athletic program would "fundamentally alter" the program
  • And more!
