Alternative Therapeutic School for Kids with ADHD & ADD

Therapeutic School for Children with ADD & ADHD

ADD & ADHD

Pinnacle has helped hundreds of students that have struggled in traditional classrooms due to Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Symptoms of ADD/ADHD include inattention, disorganization, impulsiveness and hyperactivity. Children with ADD/ADHD are often stigmatized or even bullied in school. The impulsive symptom of ADHD may interferes with a child's friendships as well since they can say or do things without thinking.

If left untreated, ADD/ADHD can lead to learning problems. These symptoms may worsen during the teen years as hormonal changes of adolescence collide with the demands of school and extracurricular activities.

Students exhibiting these behaviors are likely to disrupt a traditional classroom and ultimately fall behind socially and academically.

Pinnacle students find it easier to stay on task with the absence of school bells and background noise in the small classrooms. Individualized learning plans allow students to work at their own pace - providing them with a sense of independence and allowing them to "own" their progress.
