I'm still really new to these situations, may I ask, what is a 504 or and IEP?
Thanks for the help!

We finally had the meeting to set up my son's 504. Yea!!!!!!! I hope
when things are finally in place it will go well. I am concerned that
the Guidance counsler felt that some of the things that we put in
place for him might border on the line of an IEP. Like, Alert parent
to late or missing work and him having the teacher prompt him to hand
papers in. She felt the prompting would probably be questioned only
because he is in HS. I informed her that he has had no assistance
until now (because no one would listen) and that it may not have to be
for long that they need to do that but, until it is routine for him he
needs to be reminded. I do want him to be responsible but, it takes
time. In the meeting I had a list of some appropriate accomodations
for ADHD and she said that on a 504 you make modifications not
accomodations. I think she has this backwards? Is that true? We are
crossing our fingers that all goes well. Lea
