ADHD High School Students Welcome: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) is a general term for a variety of attentional disorders, including ADD (no hyperactivity). At WRUS, we often find their "disorders" to be their strengths, if channeled well. Our comprehensive approach includes using the strengths and gifts of each student's energy, creativity and "outside the box" thought process. We run required interscholastic sports practice in the morning, providing every student with an outlet for their morning energy and providing time for their teenage brains to wake up. Their academic day begins at 9:45 and ends at 4:20, providing a structured environment for our students later in the afternoon.
