Documentation

Documenting the Presence of a Disability

In order to receive services, all students must submit appropriate documentation of a disability. Students with sensory, physical or other health impairments must provide written documentation in the form of medical reports or a letter from a physician detailing the disability. Documentation should contain professionally recommended academic accommodations. Such documentation must be provided even if the condition is temporary (e.g. broken leg, dislocated shoulder).

Students with learning disabilities (SLD) and/or ADD/ADHD must provide current documentation of the diagnosis. Please refer to our brochure, "Documentation Guidelines."

Confidentiality of records is required by law and maintained within DSS. DSS can make known the specific nature of the disability only upon the student's written release.
