Education
Students diagnosed with AD/HD may be entitled
to classroom accommodations, adaptations, modifications, or services if
the condition has an adverse impact on educational performance. While a
formal diagnosis is required, it does not automatically entitle a
student to services or accommodations under either of the
applicable federal laws.
A child's public school should provide parents
with information about local procedures and policies governing AD/HD and
its treatment and impact on learning.
In addition, through a CHADD membership,
information is provided to parents of children with AD/HD on all aspects
of education, including legal rights and classroom techniques to achieve
success.
