<p>I can post links to actual cases against private boarding schools in the past few years prosecuted by the federal Office of Civil Rights (" OCR ") as well as phone numbers etc. if anyone wants to call them. If only we can get the info out to all of the boarding schools, I’m sure they would start complying. Too many of the schools and parents believe that they don’t have to provide accommodations other than those that they choose to provide voluntarily, but this is not true. If the kid needs it and there is adequate documentation, they have to provide it, at the school’s expense–including even stuff like a sign language interpreter for a kid that has hearing difficulties! And they canNOT refuse or rescind admission to kids that otherwise are qualified for the program. If someone files a complaint that admission was denied because of the need for accommodations and the authoritie investigate and find that to be true (including that the authorities would be able to examine records of all those who applied and wre denied and see if there is a pattern of denying applicants who need too much in the way of accommodations), then they will get in big trouble and be subject to monitoring. Despite that they are private and even if they receive no federal funding!! </p>
