| Assistive Technology
The District supports a variety of Assistive Technology (AT) initiatives designed to help ensure students with disabilities have access to appropriate assistive technology and receive a free, appropriate public education. Assistive technology can be as simple as a pencil grip or as complex as a voice-activated computer.
AT initiatives include promoting professional development, information dissemination and technical assistance.
Educators must consider assistive technology for all children with an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) (§34 C.F.R 300.346.2.(v)) and provide assistive technology for students who require it (§34 C.F.R. 300.6 (b)). For current federal language regarding assistive technology, see the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)*
