Get the Updated 504 or Re-evaluation Request Template!

Most schools review a 504 Plan at least once a year, though the exact timing can vary by district. Your child's plan should also be reviewed whenever their needs change. If it's been a while or the plan no longer fits, you can request a review yourself. Our template makes that request easy.

A 504 re-evaluation is a fresh look at whether your child still qualifies for a 504 Plan and whether the accommodations still fit their needs. It's a good idea when your child's situation changes or the current plan isn't working. Our guide walks you through how to request one.

You send a written request to your child's school, usually the 504 coordinator, asking for a re-evaluation and explaining why. Putting it in writing creates a record and starts the process. Our template gives you the exact wording to use.

If your child's accommodations aren't working or their needs have changed, you can ask the school to update the plan. A written request that explains what's changed is the best way to start. Our fillable template helps you make that request clearly and confidently.

At a minimum, once a year, but sooner if your child's needs change, if the accommodations aren't helping, or if something new comes up, like a change in diagnosis or if you move to a new school. You don't have to wait to ask for changes.

Yes. As a parent, you can request a review or changes to your child's 504 Plan at any point during the school year. You don't have to wait for the school to bring it up. Our template makes it simple to put your request in writing.

This template is for children who already have a 504 Plan. If your child doesn't have one yet, you'll want to start with an initial request instead. Our Initial 504 Plan Request Template is built for exactly that first step.
