Understanding ADHD


The most recent Germantown Academy 1st Thursday presentation on ADHD drew a record number of interested teachers.  The GA Counseling Department, as always, did an excellent job of framing the discussion about ADHD within the most current research, specifically the article ADHD in kids: What many parents and teachers don’t understand but need to know , and illustrating the general concepts with specific and familiar examples of GA student behavior.
Additionally, those in attendance met by division and identified specific strategies they use to address the needs of students with ADHD.  Not surprisingly, many of the techniques that help these children benefit all students.  To view a slide show of the presentation click here.
