#102: School Accommodations: Mythbusters

Throughout their life, our kids will spend over 2000 days in school before they graduate high school. For children with ADHD, school can be completely overwhelming! From struggling to sit still, to following multiple instructions... it’s no wonder they meltdown after a day at school! Accommodations can be a game changer, but there is a LOT of misinformation out there! Join us as we “bust” the myths that get in the way of supporting the kids who need it the most.  

MEET OUR TEAM

We are Lori, Mallory, and Katie. Lori and Mallory are child psychologists, and Katie is a speech language pathologist. We’ve spent decades supporting thousands of families navigating ADHD. And we’re also moms: some of us raising kids with ADHD and some of us navigating it ourselves… which means we understand both the science and the real-life moments that don’t make it into textbooks.
