The terms “504” and “Section 504” refer to Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which protects people with disabilities against discrimination.
CSI serves as the AU responsible for ensuring charter school compliance with applicable 504 laws, including oversight of schools providing all supports as outlined in students’ 504 plans. Each school is required to have a Section 504 Coordinator, who is the building Principal or designee.
