[QUOTE="Rannveig, post: 666956, member: 5689"] Feeling Sad, you sound like a wonderful teacher; I hope there are many more like you (preferably where I live)! Seriously, it's very helpful to know, from your example, what a good response from faculty would look like -- so that I'll know if I'm not getting it. And yeah, Insane's list of accommodations was invaluable. Sounds like your son and my son would totally relate. I hope your son is doing okay now. Based on the advice here, I'm going to write to my son's neuropsychologist and ask her, if she hasn't finished her report yet, to keep separate the parts about the ADHD and the depression in such a way that I could present the ADHD part verbatim to the school without having to show them the depression part. Maybe that's not practical, but it seems to be worth a shot. Also, I'm going to go online and try to identify the school psychologist, if any. I've only dealt with the guidance counselor up to now, and he's a nice guy, but clearly I need to move this to another level. So glad I talked to you all. Thank you so much!!! [/QUOTE]
