PUBLIC OR CHARTER SCHOOLS

Hello community,

I am new to this group and was wondering if there are any resources to find ADHD supportive public or charter middle and high schools? I live in the Bay area and have found many private schools but they are so expensive. I'm wondering if there is still a way to be successful at a non-private school. I understand that there are IEPs that you can make with the school, but I have heard that they are not as useful for high school students.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,

Mariam
