[NAGDU] Student teaching and guide dogs

According to ADA an allergy is not a reason to deny goods or services to someone with a service animal. Also, contact the president of the California chapter of NFB. Also, contact the president of the California Association of Guide Dog Users. The other thing is to look up the California law regarding service animals. Your civil rights have been violated.

Subject: [NAGDU] Student teaching and guide dogs

Hi all,
I am a student in my final semester, completing my multiple subject, teaching credential in California. I have been fighting my school for months now about my student teaching placement. They have taken a very long time to find me a teacher, and when they did, I only spent three days in that classroom and then the teacher. Claimed that they developed a allergy to my guide dog. This was the first time they brought this up to me, but stated they have tried allergy medicine that made them drowsy. They also had decided previously to pet my dog. A quick call to HR and I now once again no longer have a classroom placement for student teaching.

I am very frustrated as all of these things have happened and any advice would be much appreciated.T
