[quote=Anonymous]If he needs redirection and attention unless they know about it he will not get it. An example would be the kids they do know about will get preferential seating and the teachers watch for them. Your son could be seated in the back of the room-where he won't get any redirection so he could be missing large chunks of the lesson. The if he is not doing well the school will then approach you about testing. What are you going to say oops he has a diagnosis I didn't tell you about it. Additionally, entering in 2nd grade they are going to want recommendations from his current school and teachers. Be upfront it is the only way-you want your child to succeed and not fail. If they don't know they can't support him and as previously stated if the don't want to support him then it is not a good fit. Good luck from parent with a ADHD child in private[/quote]
