[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so school dependent! I have two kids with ADHD and AuHD diagnoses, and they have been received so differently at different schools.

School A (public): Embraced and supported. 
School B (public): Gossiped about (by teachers!) and excluded by the school community from social/club events. Barely supported.
School C (private): Counseled out because teachers don't want to deal with low-grade social friction (but they did keep the kids who are vaping and abusing substances in middle school).
School D (private): Embraced and supported.

We live in the DMV. If I could do it over, I never would have told schools B and C about my kids' diagnoses.  If you can possibly find other parents and ask around about a school's approach, I would.

A shout out to the nice teachers on this board who take care of kids with differences, especially the "we see it all" educator.[/quote]

But you wouldn't have gotten more support from schools B and C if you hadn't told -- they still would not have been good fits for your child.[/quote]
