This is an ongoing weekly check-in class for neurodivergent teens ages 14-18 with ADHD and other learning disabilities who have challenges with executive function. In addition to checking in on student progress, weekly mini-lessons will be taught to support executive function skills development. My goal is to create a supportive community of learners working together to make school and life a little easier.

Since this class includes learners with ADHD and other learning challenges, subjects such as 504 plans, Individual Education Plans, and the use of medication to manage ADHD may come up. In terms of medication, I always address this when it is mentioned by saying that it can be very effective to help learners manage their ADHD, but different families handle this differently. I also mention other ways to manage ADHD such as exercise and structure. This class does not constitute therapy, but rather provides ongoing executive function coaching and opportunities to connect and problem solve with other neurodiverse learners.
