My child qualifies under Section 504 for accomodations in school. So far, this is the first time it is being tried with him.
He has been on many or most of the medications and only one really worked well for him for over a year but it is no longer doing the job.
Now we are trying another medication and we still aren't sure if it's going to help. So, we are basically tweaking it little by little to try to get it just right.
Can anyone please give me any information on how they have helped their child with ADHD? We don't have the trouble with him at home that they have with him at school.
How far does the school have to go to accomodate?
At what point can they say, "Well, ok we have tried this and that and nothing is working"?
Or can they just try modifications ONCE and say, "Well, we tried that and it didn't work, sorry, there is nothing we can do"?
Is there ever any point that they have the right to kick a child out of school because of a disorder that he cannot help

Also, I'm not saying that we NEVER have any problems with him at home but that they make it sound like the teacher can't function and do what she is supposed to do with him in class. But we just don't see that side of him at home. I don't know if that is due to more distractions at school than at home though.
