	Overview of Section 504
		504 is not about reducing expectations for disabled students, but providing the types of accommodations that will compensate for their disabilities so that §504 students have an equal chance to compete in class.
		Students who qualify under §504 may not be subjected to a disciplinary change in placement for more than 10 days unless the appropriate §504 committee first determines that the behavior giving rise to the discipline was not linked to the student’s handicapping condition or to an inappropriate placement.
		As long as the 504 procedures for evaluation and placement are followed and the group of persons has the required knowledge of the student, the meaning of the evaluation data and the placement options, 504 is satisfied.

	Learning Disabilities OnLine: LD In-Depth: Section 504 & IDEA: Basic Similarities and Differences (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		A distinction (perhaps) without a difference between IDEA and Section 504 is that the former applies to education agencies who seek to obtain funds under that specific statute, while the latter applies to education agencies if even a single of their programs or activities receive financial assistance from any Federal source.
		Since Section 504 is a non-discrimination law, any analysis of an appropriate education for a student with disabilities needs to include the educational opportunities provided to students who are not disabled.
		Under Section 504, however, while a school may not require parents of disabled students to pay the costs associated with necessary accommodations or services, fees charged to all parents of the general student population, e.g., athletic locker fees or library card charges, may also be collected from parents of students with disabilities.
