How do I request an accommodation?

To request an accommodation, visit the ADA Application Portal.

Please note: This portal is for employees only, you will be asked to sign in to SharePoint before proceeding.

Once the required documents are submitted, the information will be reviewed and a final recommendation will be issued. The district has the ability to choose the final reasonable accommodation.

I have concerns about returning to work because of COVID-19, what should I do?

If you are unable to work, even if provided an accommodation, you should seek information from your Human Resources Business Partner regarding leave options available to you under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act. Full-time employees are entitled to two weeks of paid sick leave at their regular rate if they are quarantined and/or experiencing COVID-19 symptoms and seeking a medical diagnosis (up to $5,110). A part-time employee is eligible for leave for the number of hours that the employee is normally scheduled to work over a two-week period.

Employees that are concerned about their increased risk for COVID-19 must submit medical documentation demonstrating that their condition creates a disability requiring an accommodation. Appropriate documentation will demonstrate that an employee’s physical presence at work is not possible because of a limitation created by a disability.
