It's an executive functioning, organizational skills and self advocacy class. Which we forced our ADHD MS DC2  into kicking and screaming.  And she ended up really getting a lot out of it and asking to take for a second semester.  I think it is way under utilized, and most MS kids-- especially boys, whose EF skills develop later, but also ADHD girls and girls who tend to be perfectionist/anxious/overwhelmed should absolutely take it.  It would have saved so much grief if we had known about it for DC1.  All MSs have it. And I have heard that in some it is a glorified study hall. Which is a shame.  My kid ended the year keeping up with homework, blocking out large assignments, checking on her own grades in Gradebook, finding something was missing, and going to resolve it with the teacher, and getting a 4.0 in a competitive AAP Center with ADHD.

Would you mind sharing which middle your kids attend? I hope it's the same one we are zoned for, my DCs could really use this.[/quote]
