Catholic Accommodations Plan (CAP)

Accommodations are supports and services provided to help a student access the general education curriculum and validly demonstrate learning. The SAC Director follows these steps to create a CAP to meet the needs of your student:

• Recommendations from neuro-psychological evaluation are reviewed
• Teacher input is gathered concerning student’s needs in the classroom
• Allowable minor accommodations are determined based on the child’s unique individual needs to access grade level curriculum, rather than disability.  
• A CAP (accommodations meeting) is held annually to discuss the student’s strengths, challenges, and recommended accommodations.
• All the student’s teachers receive the CAP to implement.
• Accommodations will be monitored throughout the school year.
• The CAP is effective for one year.  Evidence backed changes may be implemented throughout the year as the need arises.

• Least restrictive environment (LRE) means students who receive accommodations should be in the same classrooms as other students as much as possible.
