[il-talk] another computer issue

[Rob Kaiser]

Thanks. The teacher sent me the infor ina word document. I was able to read 
it fine. Breann's teacher seems willing to really work with me. She seems 
really caring.

It is so great, however, that we have resourses out here that can help in 
situations like this and others.

In the past few weeks, I have had many issues silimar to this. These 
listserves have really come in handy.

Thanks to everyone who has helped me.

Rob,

Is your daughter's teacher a government employee? If not, is her
private school funded by the government?  If yes to either of these
questions, she has a legal obligation to provide information to you as
a parent in an accessible format that you can read.  Consider
informing the teacher of your disability and how she could communicate
with you in an effective manner.

Teachers in private schools also have an obligation to communicate
effectively with people with disabilities.  The obligation is not as
strong though.
