students with special health needs. Students who qualify for services
related to Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Individuals
with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), and/or homebound regulations
may be entitled to an Individual Health Care Plan. For additional
information about Individual Health Care Plans, you may contact your
school nurse or the District Health Services Coordinator. The
