Thank you for your question.
I understand from a previous question, you have a daughter with ADHD, however, I am not sure what age your daughter is.
ADHD is not considered to be a learning disability, but rather an inability to sustain attention and focus. Therefore, strategies would be targeted more toward finding ways to focus better, organizational skills and managing other symptoms of ADHD.
I am providing you with some links to help:
Section 504 for Children with ADHD
How to Help Your Child Succeed in School
Suggestions for IEPs and Section 504s
Making the Most of the School Year
I hope this information helps. Please let me know how everything is going.
