Abstract:   Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental condition that affects many children around the world. This article looks at the wide range of challenges students with ADHD face in school. These include struggling academically, having trouble making friends, and acting out in class. It reviews how schools respond through different strategies, policies, and classroom adaptations. Even though laws like the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Section 504 protect these students, many still encounter obstacles that limit their success. Future efforts must focus on better teacher training, early detection, and more inclusive teaching methods. Building stronger teamwork among parents, teachers, and mental health workers is essential. Schools should also provide more mental health support. Continued research is needed to find proven ways to help students with ADHD succeed. By improving these areas, schools can create fairer and more supportive environments. The findings show that teamwork and a broad approach are key to helping students grow academically and socially.
