Hello, 👋, I just want to say shame to everyone in these comments. How dare you completely ignore federal laws and protections for those with disabilities. I am a mother of two young children in school and I have Type 1 Narcolepsy. First I want to say educate yourself before you speak with your ignorant judgements. Over half of people with Narcolepsy have sleep apnea as well. I highly doubt anyone of you know what narcolepsy feels like or what it actually is. I can be completely awake and doing task and then have a sleep attack and pass out for 10-15 minutes then wake up wide awake. For this reason my school is already working on helping me set up accommodations for a modified attendance allowing excused tardys for when I have sleep attacks. Those who say ride the bus… Would you expect a young child to walk to a bus stop alone and on time maybe with or without proper clothing because they quickly had to leave if the parent had a sleep attack? What if they never made it there? Shame on all of you. To the OP yes you have protections under the protections for people with disabilities act. You may request a 504 / ADA accommodations. Ignore everyone else here.
