  • Eligibility for Learning Accommodations

    Parents of students who may require learning accommodations beyond that of other students at Borgia may request an evaluation to determine learning needs. A parent who believes his/her son or daughter may have learning accommodation needs should contact Mr. Alex Piontek. He will work with the Washington School District to arrange an eligibility evaluation and meeting. If the testing indicates, a SEP will be developed. Some accommodations may be fulfilled at Borgia, others may require the student to visit Washington High School after school hours to receive additional services.

    Students with current documentation of a special need diagnosed by a qualified professional can be afforded reasonable, appropriate accommodations at Borgia. Parents must submit a copy of their child's current evaluation report(s) which must be completed by the diagnosing or treating professional.
  • ACT Accommodations

    Students with a diagnosed disability may have the opportunity to take the ACT with accommodations; however, even with current documentation of a diagnosed special need, there is no guarantee that ACT will approve your request for accommodations.
