Student Services for All Learners

 

504 Plans

A 504 plan is a way for schools to provide support for students with a disability so that they can learn in a regular classroom.

The name 504 plan comes from Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. This law prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities in programs or activities that receive federal funding (such as public schools or publicly funded private schools). This ensures that students with disabilities can get a free education that works for them.

Multilingual Learners

 

English is a second language for 40% of our students. Educational services, evaluation, curriculum modifications and accommodations are offered to children through individualized learning programs. Families plan with teachers, related services professionals and specialists to coordinate educational plans for students. At GLCPS, students who require ML support receive direct instruction in English language development along with Sheltered English Instruction. We communicate with families in their preferred language, including written translations and oral interpretations. 

 

 

Global Learning Charter Public School holds monthly meetings for families of multilingual learners and learners who need accommodations, such as Special Education and 504 plans. The purpose of the meetings is to allow parents and guardians to discuss topics that will help their children succeed and thrive. The meetings serve as a platform to ask questions, and voice concerns and questions about the Special Education, English language and Section 504 programs as well as supports at GLCPS. 

 

 

These meetings are held once each month in the cafeteria of the GLCPS Main Campus. Please check the monthly calendar for specific dates and details of each meeting.
