Your DD is rocking it!!
One thing: make sure that you give her the opportunity to SAVOR her success. I mean that quite literally: have a moment where you tell her that you want to take in the sensation of accomplishment and success. Ask her what that feels like for her. Having a felt experience of success is crucial for our kids with ADHD. |

Why are you annoyed at the art teacher? I don't follow. |

Just because she was one half grade away from Honor Roll, and I suspect the girl would have been over-the-moon excited to get honor roll. I'm not saying she didn't deserve the C+, I assume she did, just that it's a bummer to miss it by such a small amount in a non-core class. |

Sorry but that is not the teachers fault. |

My 7th grader with severe ADHD has straight As, which is expected. I do praise his diligence and efforts. |
