Accommodations are commonly categorized in four ways; presentation, response, setting, and
timing/scheduling.
1.
Presentation Accommodations allow students to access instructional materials in alternative
ways (e.g., students with print disabilities utilizing auditory formats; students with attentional
difficulties may require visual outlines).
2.
Response Accommodations allow students to record or demonstrate their mastery and work
products in alternate ways or to solve or organize their work using some type of materials or
devices.
3.
Setting Accommodations change the location in which instruction is given or the conditions of
the setting.
4.
Timing/Scheduling Accommodations change the allowable length of time for assignments,
projects, and tests, and may also change the way the time is organized.
Transportation
DoDM 1342.12E4 S8c9, p 34:
Transportation is not provided to students who live within walking distance of the school and whose
identified needs do not prevent them from walking with parents or caretakers or being escorted. A
statement of special transportation requirement, if any, must be documented.
1.
None. The disability does not indicate the need for special transportation.
2.
Special Transportation. Special transportation is authorized for students with disabilities that
preclude their capability to be transported in the least restrictive manner (i.e., regular
transportation).
a.
Safety attendant (e.g., ensures student enters and exits the bus safely, secures student
with seating devices, and ensures student behaves safely while on the bus).
b.
Safety aide with specialized training to manage the student’s particular disability.
c.
Wheelchair accessibility.
d.
Special seating devices.
e.
Alternate bus stop (student may require curb-to-curb service depending on the
student’s disability).
f.
Alternate vehicle
If the CSC suspects the student requires special transportation arrangements, the district transportation
officer is invited to participate in the IEP meeting. Special transportation does not always require a
separate special education vehicle.
