[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does the school have a learning specialist on staff? Many rigorous, selective private schools do.[/quote] Yes, they have several. [/quote] In that case, it's the learning specialists who will be reading this report. You should let them read it. They do this for a living. They will understand the report, its jargon and implications better than you. They know the school's curriculum, teachers and demands. If you let them read the report, they will have a better idea of what your DD will need - both in terms of help she should receive, and in terms of what she'll need to step up and do - than you would on your own. Also, executive functioning work with students works best when done in context of their world. You could hire an ADHD coach to give your daughter tips on the side, but wouldn't you rather take an approach that is more coordinated with her real life schedule, her actual teachers, demands and assignments? In my experience, counseling out only happens after all tools and avenues have been exhausted. You haven't started down that road yet so don't worry about coming to the end of it. [/quote]
