[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tbh, one of the most common adhd accommodations (for a 504 or IEP) is preferred seating- separating them from distractions. So really, the teacher was already trying out an accommodation and it sounds like it is successful.[/quote]

I responded earlier, but just want to second this: my inattentive ADHD son got distracted so easily that he had to be seated away from windows, right in front of the teacher. He was happy with this arrangement, because he hated getting distracted, but couldn't help himself. Even now in 12th grade, on optimal medication for ADHD and not distracted, he still likes to sit up front.[/quote]

OP here. Thanks to all of you for your help in putting this in perspective.

We are in the process of getting an eval so we can figure out a solution.

He is a good, kind kid who is a friend to anyone. He is never physical or spiteful to another child. It’s just this inattentiveness that is holding him back and I think making him depressed.[/quote]

Did you think that ADHD automatically means nasty? It doesn't. I wonder how many people who don't have kids with ADHD, or who are only at the beginning of their ADHD journey, secretly think like you!
