My husband is coming home early to watch my boys so I can come. Just a
heads up...I can't remember if I shared this last week. I called the
Regional ADA Center and the Southern Indiana Center for Independent
Living and was told that the school does not have to provide an
automatic door, but an individual with disabilites must be albe to
operate it independently, (which Id oubth is the case fro any of the
existing exterior d oors). Interior doors have a maximum pound rate of
pressure that must need to be exerted to open it. Wer can ask if they
believe they are meeting federal and state codes and as "for their
help" in making our school more accessible to both students and others
in the community with disabilities. I thought we might ask if we could
form a committee to monitor accessibility in an ongoing way with the
mission of gradually increasing accessibility to both physical features
of the building itself and in terms of universal design practices that
allow programs and curriculum to be more accessible to all users of the
school.
See you later,
Ronda
