AB  - Attention  deficit  hyperactivity  disorder  (ADHD)  is  a  condition  typically  first  evident  in  early  childhood.  Symptoms  include  difficulties  with  attention,  concentration,  and  short-term  memory  as  well  as  impulsivity.  Children  with  ADHD  are  overly  active  (as  if  “driven  by  a  motor”)  and  cannot  control  ongoing  activity  ranging  from  fidgeting  to  difficulty  remaining  seated  for  5  minutes  to  inappropriately  running,  jumping,  and  yelling  in  public  places.  Since  these  deficits  significantly  impair  academic  performance  and  are  disruptive  in  a  typical  classroom,  concerns  about  ADHD  usually  arise  during  kindergarten  or  first  grade.  However,  ADHD  is  a  lifelong  condition  with  functional  impairment  extending  throughout  adulthood.
