  1. A GCPS teacher is creating a test for a student with a visual impairment. Which accommodation most directly addresses the student's access needs?

    Answer: Providing the test in large print or Braille format

    Providing materials in large print or Braille directly removes the access barrier caused by visual impairment without altering the academic standard.

  2. Which GCPS co-teaching model is best suited when a small group of students needs intensive re-teaching while the rest of the class advances to new content?

    Answer: Alternative Teaching

    Alternative teaching involves one teacher working with a small group for remediation or enrichment while the other teacher instructs the larger group.

  3. A parent of a student with a disability disagrees with a GCPS placement decision. Which IDEA protection allows parents to contest such decisions?

    Answer: Due Process Hearing

    Due process hearings provide parents with a formal legal mechanism to challenge IEP decisions, placements, or services they believe are inappropriate.

  4. In a GCPS inclusive classroom, which practice best supports a student with dyslexia during independent reading tasks?

    Answer: Providing audiobooks or text-to-speech tools alongside written text

    Audiobooks and text-to-speech tools allow students with dyslexia to access grade-level content by compensating for decoding difficulties.

  5. Which federal law prohibits discrimination based on disability in programs receiving federal financial assistance, covering students who need accommodations but may not qualify for special education?

    Answer: Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act

    Section 504 is a civil rights law that prohibits disability-based discrimination and requires schools to provide accommodations to eligible students even without an IEP.

  6. A GCPS teacher notices a gifted student with a learning disability performs inconsistently — excelling in some areas while struggling in others. This profile is characteristic of which student population?

    Answer: Twice-Exceptional (2e) students

    Twice-exceptional students are both gifted and have a disability, requiring support plans that address both advanced abilities and learning challenges simultaneously.
