[quote=Anonymous]Both my AAP kids (MS & ES) had no problem getting no 504s for demonstrated ADHD-- despite having strong grades (mostly 4s or As) at the time the plans were put in place.  I know AAP kids on IEPs too, but they did have to show academic impact. Both kids' Centers were having been amazing to work with, and have a strong grasp on the needs of 2e learners. We got zero pushback on getting appropriate plans, and the schools have fully complied. And certainly no one is taking about taking the 504s away, despite them both having outstanding grades.  If you have a possibly AAP qualified ADHD kid, do not hesitate to apply. And be honest about what your kid needs to succeed academically.  The schools are obligated to apply it, and gifted teachers and counsellors understand that ADHD goes ah d in hand with gifted learners. There may be some lemons out there, but I also think there are some anti-AAP parents, or people who just don't know what they are talking about fear offering. FCPS is very well equipped to deal with AAP/ ADHD, and usually does a nice job. [/quote]
