Fairport Harbor Exempted Village Schools ADA Program Accessibility Plan

In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”), Fairport Harbor Exempted Village (“the School”) is committed to ensuring that individuals with disabilities are not denied an opportunity to participate in and benefit from any service, program, or activity, offered by the school. Individuals with disabilities are welcome to participate in and benefit from the events at our school. School officials wish to assist in making the event a memorable experience for all.

ACCESS TO SERVICES, PROGRAMS, AND ACTIVITIES

The School will make reasonable modifications in its policies, practices, and procedures when the modifications are necessary to ensure that services, programs, and activities provided by the school are readily accessible by individuals with disabilities. In choosing among methods to ensure that services, programs, and activities are readily accessible, the School will give priority consideration to those methods that will provide the services, programs, and activities, in the most integrated setting appropriate to the needs of individuals with disabilities.

It will also direct individuals with disabilities to the appropriate office where they can request an accommodation.
