We know it’s not an acronym used in schools … technically … but we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention 504, wouldn’t we? The three numbers are a common school abbreviation for Section 504, a portion of the federal ADA that applies to any program that receives federal funding and protects students in those programs from discrimination.

That was a lot, we know! So we made the handy “Periodic Table of Education Acronyms” to print and hang near your teacher desk … so you never have to send your grade level team a “huh?” email!

We know there are some acronyms used in schools in the US that are specific to states or even school districts, so if we missed any, please let us know below!
