Welcome
Welcome: ADHD in the Classroom
Description:
Children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) experience more obstacles in their path to success than the average student. The symptoms of ADHD, such as inability to pay attention, difficulty sitting still, and difficulty controlling impulses, can make it hard for children with this diagnosis to do well in school.
To meet the needs of children with ADHD, schools may offer ADHD treatments, such as behavioral classroom management or organizational training; Special education services; or accommodations to lessen the effect of ADHD on their learning.
