Go to Post In 2001 instead of staring at the field at the game I turned around and watched the people watch the field. All I could see was a mass of people from all corners of the world, eyes lit up, gears turning in their heads. That, to me, is FIRST in action. - Jessica Boucher [more]

Re: Handicapped or not

OK, my turn.

It has been mentioned that the stool could be a trip hazard for other students. That may be, but what are other students doing in our drivers station? The stool will be somewhat under the shelf.
Also, we are playing with soccer balls. What prevents a student stepping on a ball and falling? Or tripping on the Trident?

Unfair advantage? So our 4' student becomes a 5' student. Where is the unfair advantage? It's not like we are asking all the students to drive while kneeling.

Not to rant too much, but consider that if disadvantages are always compensated for, then what is there left to compete with?
Than why is there a wheel chair ramp if not to compensate?

We will bring a step stool, to BMR, and confer with the head ref. If he says no, than we won't use it.

If I have offended anyone, I apologize.
