Section 504 is a precursor to IDEA with a much broader scope.
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 is one of three federal statutes that govern the education of students with disabilities. It specifically applies to schools receiving federal financial assistance. The Americans with Disabilities Act prohibits discrimination against students with disabilities, and it applies to public and private schools, regardless of whether they receive federal funds, except for religious schools. In addition, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act governs public schools and requires them to identify, evaluate, and provide special education and related services to students with disabilities. Under IDEA, public schools must provide students with disabilities with an individualized education plan. This paper will provide an overview of Section 504’s dynamics and characteristics.
