  Case: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or is it?
Mr. West has a student with ADHD and follows the 504 plan that has been given to him for the students behavior. The interventions in the 504 plan is not working. Mr. West believes that the student maybe EBD. Mr. West has called the parents of the student to get more information about the student. The parents has not responded to any of the lines of communication. what should Mr West do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Parents are not always open to seeing negative behaviors in their kids. I think that Mr. West should gather more concrete evidences instead of "going over behaviors". Mr. West should compile anecdotal notes, work samples, and narratives about the student before meeting with the parents. Students who have EBD follow plans in the Tier program just like students with academic needs. If a student is not successful with Tier 1 instruction, and not with Tier 2, then another IEP should be held with the parents.
