Dismissal from Section 504

If a student is being dismissed from Section 504, you must document the dismissal in a “Section 504 Evaluation” form. This process ensures the student’s eligibility decision is properly recorded and automatically updates the student’s Program Compliance status.

Follow the steps below to complete a Section 504 dismissal correctly.

Step 1: Locate the Student in “SE 504”

1. Navigate to SE 504.
2. In the Enter Student’s Last Name… dropdown, type at least a few characters of the student’s last name.
3. Select the student from the list.
4. From the “New/Edit Forms” dropdown, select Section 504 Evaluation.

Step 2: Select Re-Evaluation

On the “Section 504 Evaluation” form:

1. Under “Type of Evaluation,” select Re-Evaluation.

This ensures the evaluation reflects an updated committee decision rather than an initial eligibility review.

Step 3: Select Dismissal from 504

Within the “Section 504 Committee’s Decision” section:

1. Select Dismissal from 504.
2. Click Save.
3. Click Lock to finalize the form.

What Happens After You Lock the Form?

When the “Section 504 Evaluation” form is locked with "Dismissal from 504" selected:

• The system automatically updates the student’s Program Compliance status to "Not Active."
• The student will no longer appear as an active Section 504 student.
• The dismissal is documented for reporting and compliance purposes.
