Each FCPS student and employee should receive a target card. Posters should be displayed in key building areas. As defined by the ADA, a person with a serious physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity has a disability. An employee's disability must be verified by the employee's doctor and, in some cases, confirmed by a doctor chosen by the school system. FCPS complies with the ADA and provides reasonable accommodation to those who need it.
All communications are confidential.
Any employee or applicant needing accommodations, such as a sign language interpreter or vision enhancement equipment, should contact the same office. Calls should be made seven workdays prior to the scheduled activity so that appropriate arrangements can be made. The new number is 7310. And, there is a new accompanying Notice 7310, which contains helpful guidelines, field trip request forms, parental permissions, and a list of prohibited activities. The revised regulation may not be published until sometime after the new school year begins.
