The District will furnish auxillary aids and services to students, employees, parents and members of the public who have disabilities to the extent necessary for communications with other persons, unless it will result in an undue burden on, or a fundamental alteration in the program. The District has a grievance procedure for disability discrimination compliant for a description of this procedure or any further relevant information, including the Districts updated self-evaluation, contact the District Office at 504-346-7276 |
