    my 6 going on 7 year old was just formally diagnosed with ADHD and ODD. I had my first meeting with his team to start his evaluation and eventual 504 a month ago. Super excited for my kiddo to get the support he needs so that he can really succeed at school. and glad that its happening early in kindergarten as opposed to later. this podcast is great and just the info i needed about the process as a whole. thoroughly appreciative listener\mama :)
