[quote=Anonymous]My kid was diagnosed with adhd, which mostly manifests as inattentive. The evaluator said her processing speed is in the 25th percentile, but she scored in the 70th-85th percentiles in assessments for reading, vocab, problem solving, etc. She will be in 2nd grade in the fall. So far, school has been fine—she’s in the mix with her peers academically, but I wonder how things look for slow processors as they get older and academic demands increase. If you have an order kid with a similar profile, how has school gone? Were they able to take honors classes? Did they do well? Is there anything you did that worked well to support your kid? And advice about what to do/not do as a kid with this profile goes through school? [/quote]
