3 Introduction
4 Impact on Students Many Students with ADHD are experiencing academic and behavioral challenges in the educational setting. Question: Are students receiving FAPE as per their Section 504 Plan?
5 Introduction Over the past fiscal years ( ), the Department's office for Civil Rights (OCR) has received more than 16,000 complaints alleging discrimination on the basis of disability in the elementary and secondary education programs. Approximately, 2,000 or one in nine complaints have involved allegations of discrimination against a student with ADHD.
6 ADHD Defined
7 Many Names for ADHD Name Given to Disorder Time DSM Edition Minimal Brain Damage Minimal Brain Dysfunction Hyperkinetic Reaction of Childhood 1950 S S S DSM-II

9 ADHD Defined ADHD is not a specific developmental disorder or learning disability as these disorders are currently defined, but there may be some overlap, or comorbidity, of these two types of disorders. Approximately 20 to 25% of ADHD children will have significant delays in the development of math, reading, or spelling, and 10% to 30% may have problems with language
10 Types of ADHD Predominantly Inattentive Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Combination (symptoms of both of the above are equally present)
11 Statistics on Students with ADHD
12 Statistics on Students Diagnosed with ADHD Occurs in 3% to 7% of school-age children All socioeconomic, cultural, and racial backgrounds All intellectual levels More prevalent in males 4:1 male to female ratio in the general population 9:1 male to female ratio in the clinical population
13 Facts on ADHD ADHD can span throughout the individual s life. 50% to 80% of AD/HD children continue to have some degree of their symptoms in adulthood. ADHD is a chronic or life-long condition. As one grows older the symptoms may become less severe, especially in the case of hyperactivity, but some manifestations of the condition may be expected to be present throughout adulthood. Hereditary link has been suggested One can not tell by looking at a child s overt behavior.

27 Where are Students with ADHD Educated? General education Teacher initiated accommodations in general classroom, curriculum, and instruction Identification of a disability under Section 504: Development of a 504 Service Plan for accommodations in general curriculum and modifications in instruction (IAP) Identification of need for special education and related services
28 Student with Academic/Behavioral Concerns Follow the BIP developed by the Section 504 Committee (Form is provided in the Success Ed Program) Try interventions for at least 4 to 6 weeks follow RTI Recommendations (Progress Monitoring) Reconvene Section 504 Committee to review progress or lack of progress and make other recommendations
29 Student with Academic/Behavioral Concerns (cont d) The severity of the case will determine the need to move more quickly through the Support Team/504/IDEA Process. If the student has severe enough behavioral issues, then the Support Team may begin the Special Education Referral process.
