We will be conducting a school chat on Monday, July 9, 2001 at 9:00 pm EDT in the School Chat room. Topics for discussion will include:

• Common school issues (glucagon, classroom testing, field trips, training staff members, snacks in classroom)
• Resolution (first line of defense is to meet with school personnel to educate)
• Applicable federal anti-discrimination laws (parental rights, school responsibilities and the difference in the application of these laws - 504, ADA, IDEA)
• Development of 504 and Health Care Plan or IEP and HCP

Joining Steph Schwartz, RN, MPH, CDE, will be Crystal Jackson, Legal Advocacy and Government Relations, American Diabetes Association - National Office in Alexandria, VA, and Michael Hohn, a school psychologist from Portland Oregon.

In order to facilitate discussion, we would appreciate your review of:

• School Bill of Rights for Children with Diabetes,
• The Law, Schools, and Your Child with Diabetes,
• Diabetes Management at School,
• American Diabetes Association, POSITION STATEMENT: Care of Children With Diabetes in the School and Day Care Setting, and
• Fighting for our children: ADA works with schools across the country to eliminate discrimination.

Please join us on July 9th for a lively discussion!
