[quote=Anonymous]My youngest was similar. He *could* meet classroom expectations, but it took a lot of work, both from the teacher (movement breaks, sending him to the hall to work with fewer distractions) and from him. But it was like a duck swimming -- we couldn't see his hard work just under the surface. He became much happier after diagnosis and meds so that he doesn't have to work as hard. Also, while you have an understanding teacher now, that's no guarantee for the future. A diagnosis opens the door to a 504, to memorialize those accommodations.[/quote]
