  Case: ADHD
A student approaches you and tells you that he has ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder). He can't take the test within the time allotted, can't turn in assignments on time, or can't take notes, etc. He is requesting special consideration. Other students in the class overhear your conversation and start to whisper among themselves. What do you do as a teacher?

Comments: I agree with this. A parent meeting needs to be set up so that everyone can understand what is expected. The students needs to be put on medicine, because the student can not turn in homework late just because it is harder for them to focus. I have a very hard time concentrating but I take medicine, know what is expected of me, and get things done even if I am occasionally stressed out.
