It is late in the school year, and many students with ADD have struggled all year. What should you do? This is a tough question, but you might want to ask that your school district evaluate your child for special education services. Be sure to put your request in writing. Make it a formal request.
An IEP can be a real help for a child who is feeling desperate about school. There are rights that a child has as a special education student.
If you start now, you might be able to have the pieces for your child's school success put into place early in the next school year.
