An estimated 7 million (11.4%) U.S. children aged 3-17 years have been diagnosed with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder in which a child experiences certain intellectual and behavioral challenges. Let’s take a closer look at these problems and explain how Legacy Online School helps children with ADHD.
Educational Challenges Faced by Children with ADHD
Children with ADHD are very impulsive, hyperactive, and inattentive due to their developmental characteristics. Here are some common challenges these kids face in learning:
- A desire to complete tasks quickly and reluctance to follow clear instructions
- Deliberately ignoring others when spoken to
- Inability to assess the consequences of their actions
- Lack of attention to detail
- Constant distraction by things happening elsewhere
- High levels of social interaction, often inappropriate during class
- Forgetfulness, especially regarding homework
These are just some of the common challenges, but there may be other manifestations, particularly if a child has additional issues alongside ADHD. Such children require special approaches. These approaches have been used for a long time and have successfully helped children with ADHD.

Each of our teachers has worked with various groups of children with disabilities and knows how to support them. Our school adheres to the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion, and our team includes teachers from different parts of the world.

Developing a Personalized Learning Program
Our specialists understand how unique children with ADHD are. Teachers communicate with parents and the child to learn about their specific needs. Teachers create a personalized learning plan based on these needs. This plan isn’t perfect from the start, which is why teachers conduct continuous monitoring. Observations help them make necessary adjustments, ensuring the learning plan becomes effective for the child.

ADHD is a specific group of children with disabilities requiring serious attention. Our school has connections with specialized experts. Parents and students can receive individual or group consultations with these experts to discuss specific issues.
Our school holds open online sessions occasionally where specific questions and problems related to ADHD are addressed.
Legacy Online School Reviews
Our school has been operating in the educational market for several years. Reviews of Legacy Online School can be found on various websites such as Trustpilot, Reviews, Niche, and others. Most parents and students are satisfied with our school’s work. Here are some of these reviews.
“Our daughter is very withdrawn. Kindergarten was hard for us, especially the last year. We decided to go to the first grade online, so that the child would be less nervous, and the first grade started comfortably. We chose for a long time, there are a lot of schools. It is good that we found Legacy. Teachers here are experienced, with experience. We have a class with a small number of students, which is very comfortable. If my daughter doesn’t understand something, the teachers and the tutor immediately tell her what needs to be corrected, what points need to be tightened up. Our daughter’s psychological state is very important to us, and it doesn’t get upset here”

“For a long time I was in doubt about the choice of school format for my child, I heard many arguments both for and against “”online””, but we decided with the thought “”we have to try!”” and still consider it the best solution!
We have been studying for less than a year without nerves and stress! the child is interested and comfortable to receive knowledge, the teachers are fascinated by the process. it is obvious that they are not the first year of teaching and love their work. now we are calm for our children. the school likes 👍, I advise parents to listen first of all to themselves and believe in the strength of their child!”
Parent’s review, Niche
“They totally celebrate individualities and provide a trustworthy online education. The curriculum rocks, the teachers are dedicated, and the platform is user-friendly. Plus, the personalized learning and flexibility are major pluses. While they could improve social interaction, I wholeheartedly recommend Legacy Online School for elementary K-12 education”
