Malvern, Pa., March 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Frontline Education, a leading provider of administration software purpose-built for educators in K-12, announced today that it will host an education session with nationally recognized legal experts Jose Martín and Dave Richards focusing on Section 504 Program Management. A Section 504 Plan is developed to ensure that a child who has a disability identified under the law and is attending an elementary or secondary educational institution receives accommodations that will ensure their academic success and access to the learning environment.

Martín and Richards developed a propriety set of Section 504 forms and processes, which is incorporated into Frontline’s Section 504 plan management software, to help school leaders become compliant and reduce administrative burden in order to better serve students. 

Who: David Richards and Jose Martín of Richards Lindsay & Martin, LLP are attorneys devoted to supporting school districts in the areas of special education and Section 504. In partnership with Frontline Education’s special programs software, their forms and processes help school districts across the nation meet current Office for Civil Rights (OCR) guidance and recommendations.

What: Attendees will learn about what updates may be coming from OCR and processes that need to be in place to be prepared for these changes, as well as best practices to enable compliance with consistent, simplified and automated procedures. The session will be customized to questions submitted in advance. Questions may be submitted here.

Where: Attendees can register here. If unable to attend the session live, registrants will receive access to the on-demand version to watch after it airs. 

When:  The free live education event will take place on Thursday, April 6, at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.
