Communitcate with the school about what your son needs. While medication can help, they may have different ideas as to how to help him. We are doing a "504" for my oldest who was just diagnosed this summer (which is how I got diagnosed too). While it won't put her in special classes like an IEP, it will help change the way she does her school work in class and out in order to work with her learning style instead of against it.
Good luck!
