Hi,

My son was diagnosed with ADHD (attentive type) when he was in the first grade. He is in the second grade now.
He was taking medications from then.
His teacher used to complain that he is not paying attention even after taking medications for almost a year. The other complaint was my son was crying in the class at least once a day.
His teacher was suggesting that he is not upto the cut-off for third grade and insisting us to have him repeat the second grade.
However, his test scores were always good. His doctor also tested him and said his reading level is at grade 3 and writing level at grade 2.
We have a meeting with the school in a week or so.

Any information on the pros and cons of repeating a grade from other parents will be really useful.

Thanks in advance.
