[quote=Anonymous]Per the US Department of Education July 2016 Students with ADHD and Section 504: A Resource Guide page 10 - https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/letters/colleague-201607-504-adhd.pdf "Every type of ADHD affects the functioning of the parts of the brain related to thinking, concentrating, and planning. A determination that a student has any type of ADHD, therefore, is a determination that a student has an impairment for purposes of meeting one of the prongs of Section 504's definition of disability." "OCR [Office of Civil Rights] will presume, unless there is evidence to the contrary, that a student with a diagnosis of ADHD is substantially limited in one or more major life activities."[/quote]
