Re: School insists on treating bright girl with ADHD as lazy instead of disabled

In Reply to: School insists on treating bright girl with ADHD as lazy instead of disabled posted by Jackie M. Botala

I know I'm not crazy now! My daughter has had the same problem. After struggling to get her the help she needs they re-tested her and discovered that her IQ was too high for the special Ed. program. Now she is in the 7th grade and the struggle is sometimes unbearable. I have to listen to her cry because the teacher called her "lazy". Does anyone have any suggestions?
