School and Social Behavior
For some children with ADHD it is not the academics
that are problematic at school, but the challenge of
appropriate behavior in the classroom, on the playground, and with
friends. If this is a problem in your family, there are a number of
things you can do in collaboration with your child's teacher to help
your student improve.
