What is a temporary medical condition? A temporary medical condition is an illness or injury that is expected to last more than 2 weeks but not more than six months.  

Who determines what accommodations are needed? A school team, including a school nurse, in consultation with an outside medical provider (with parent consent). Supports are coordinated through the 504 Plan Support Team and must be approved in advance. Email questions to section504@pps.net

What happens if temporary medical condition lasts longer than expected?  Temporary supports will not be provided beyond six months. Students should be referred for 504 or special education consideration at any point the team suspects that the student has a chronic condition that is likely to require accommodations, supports or services for an extended period of time.

What is the expectation for students who are out of school for illnesses or injuries that are not considered temporary medical conditions?  The expectation is that schools will make homework available for pick up by the family and that teachers will help the student with catch up once the student returns to school.
