[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 160276, member: 1498"] The IDEA 2004 bans school districts from requiring that children diagnosed with or thought to have ADHD be medicated. School district personnel can decide that any kid has ADHD but that doesn't constitute a medical diagnosis. They're job is to provide the educational supports needed regardless of the diagnosis or treatment choices. by the way, if the district has jumped to the conclusion that your daughter has ADHD, at least they haven't decided she's just a bad kid. If they believe she has ADHD, then ask for an IEP outlining how they are going to accommodate her needs. [/QUOTE]
