Thank you, Patty, for your thoughtful reply. I do agree that adherence to the requirements outlined in the school catalog must be applied universally. As a social worker/teacher, it is diificult for me to put aside the deficiencies of my mentally challenged students (tey constitute 90% of my trade class, by design). It is my hope that I am not held accountable for deviating a little bit from the rigidity of the curriculum, based, like you said, upon the accommodations under the Americans with Disability Act.
