Middle and High School students often experience an increase in academic demands and expectations. Students with ADHD face these same demands, but may find themselves struggling more and more as they advance to higher grade levels. This group has been designed to help students and their parents learn specific and detailed information about our current understanding of ADHD and how it affects a child’s behavior. You will learn evidence-based techniques to provide the structure and guidance that children with ADHD need to succeed behaviorally, academically and socially.
