Leanna Landsmann: Student with ADHD tries to find school to fit needs
Q: My granddaughter, Rena, a senior, wants to attend college. She is a champion tennis player, but has struggled academically because of ADHD. Her ACT score and GPA are low. She was rejected by her college choices. Her counselor offers no encouragement except, “Go to a local community college to get ready for college work.” But the schools don’t have tennis. She has a great personality and wants to teach. Any suggestions?
