Teacher pushs adhd to get the parents to start evaluations and medications the principle and behavioral health teacher are amazing and open to discussions but 3rd grade is the worst. teacher argues for adhd when given fake examples of things I've tried to do to help my kid and his response based off of normal responses of children without adhd the teacher nodded her head repeadedly and said yep sign of adhd. The teacher punishes disabilities and even lied about my kid to save herself from looking bad. The teacher has pushed adhd in so many ways she has well over stepped her legal bounds. If I didn't have shared custody of my kid I'd have pulled my kid from her class after the first parent teacher conference be cautious sending ur kid here dont just accept what the teacher says really evaluate it based off of what u know of your kids I ended up paying for a private 1500 dollar evaluation with eeg to find out everything I said was correct and the teacher was wrong. She's going to hurt children rather than help them if she doesn't stop the school is recouped and recruiting based off test scores and to do that hyper focused medicated kids get the job done
