If that is an accommodation in the 504 plan then it should be followed. If the teacher thinks an accommodation isn’t lawful, reasonable, etc., she needs to go through the proper process vs simply declaring she disagrees/won’t do it. 504 has legal protections and a process. I would start with your 504 coordinator at the school or district level.

If necessary, you can also seek an advocate. In my community, you can hire a private advocate or contact an area non-profit for volunteer advocates who are well versed on 504.

My child has a 504 plan and takes some honors classes.
