[quote=Anonymous]I don't think ADHD is a big deal to most schools as a diagnosis. It's really how it manifests and what supports the kids need. Mainstream privates are fine chunking assignments, extra time on tests, and giving class notes. What they don't want to deal with is behavior issues like kids melting down, aggression, oppositional behavior. And they want parents that don't expect that teachers will step in and do constant coaching for the EF issues like turning in assignments, etc. I'd disclose but be really open about what your child does and doesn't need, what outside supports you are willing to employ, and I think your daughter will be fine.[/quote]
