Erica Jaaf Twitter @EricaJaaf Vancouver school board candidate for One City Vancouver Twitter @OneCityVan supports ADHD students in BC schools and will ask BC Education Minister Rob Fleming to follow through on his promise to ADHD students in BC to add ADHD as a stand-alone category in special education so ADHD students can get accommodations and IEP’s (Individual Education Programs.) #IEPsForADHD
Erica makes a good point, “Yes, I will. In June, the Ontario Public School Board Association voted to recognize and support students with ADHD. It’s time BC did the same.”
I did not know that the Ontario Public School Board Association voted to recognize and support students with ADHD.
I hope the BC School Trustee Association, a Twitter @BCSTA_News also votes to recognize and support students with ADHD like their Ontario counterparts.
Thanks @EricaJaaf I hope other school board Trustees in Vancouver will follow your lead and commit to asking BC Education Minister Rob Fleming when he will fulfil his promise to ADHD students add ADHD as a stand-alone category in special education that he made more than 10 months ago (December 4th, 2017).
Here are the tweets.
Yes, I will. In June, the Ontario Public School Board Association voted to recognize and support students with #ADHD. It’s time BC did the same.

If you see any other political parties or independent school board candidates who have any policies on the biggest number of students with special needs, ADHD in their platform, please thank them and send me that information so I can post it online. Always important to reward good behaviour on ADHD because it is so rare by politicians
