As a Kindergaten teacher, the last place rude comments need to go are on a report card. If things are so bad, then why as a professional was a conference not set up. As far as ADHD, you need to get ahold of a checklist| and read the school psychologists several classroom observations that things were noted. High activity at 5 should not shock you. Is your child flailing hurting others, has no focus, failing academically due to attention span? I have helped several children with ADD and ADHD get the help they need. I hope a check for food allergies was done first. Red die 40 is a biggie (hot dogs have | | this big time). An ADHD child will usually break down crying when they run into a friend and get caught and corrected. They really cannot help it and feel horrendous. Maybe the teacher needs to address feelings and talk to you about possible counseling if things are so bad. Honestly, sometimes teachers are just like you, sometimes no matter what a child does that one may find cute, you may find it rude. Could this be a personality conflict. Teachers always have the option to try the other teacher and see how things go. Behavior modifications need to occur before a child is put on meds. Also, ADHD need to have many components for a consectutive 6 months before meds. are initialted. One report card comment should not be it.
