As a parent of a child with ADHD, finding a school that understands and supports your child’s unique learning needs can feel like an uphill battle. Traditional classroom environments often struggle to provide the individualized attention and structure ADHD students require to stay focused and succeed. We recognize these challenges and have designed our approach to foster an environment where children with ADHD can thrive.
Here’s how Broach Schools enhance focus and drive success for students with ADHD.
Personalized Learning Plans
One size doesn’t fit all, especially for ADHD students. We believe in personalized education that caters to each child’s specific needs. Our teachers work closely with students and families to create Personalized Learning Plans that address the student’s strengths, challenges, and learning styles. This tailored approach helps keep students engaged and focused, ensuring they receive the support they need in a way that works best for them.

Small Class Sizes
ADHD students often struggle in large, crowded classrooms where distractions are abundant, and teachers have limited time to focus on individual students. That’s why we maintain small class sizes. With fewer students per teacher, we can give more one-on-one attention, helping children stay on task and progress steadily throughout the school year.
—In fact, our emphasis on small class sizes is one of the top reasons Broach School families consistently report their children’s success.
Structured Yet Flexible Environment
ADHD students benefit from clear structure but also need flexibility to accommodate their natural learning patterns. We strike the perfect balance between structure and flexibility. Our classrooms promote routine and predictability, which is calming and helpful for ADHD students. At the same time, we recognize the importance of flexibility, allowing for breaks and creative learning methods that help students refocus when needed.
—This balance is critical in ensuring ADHD students don’t feel overwhelmed by rigid schedules or lose focus in less structured environments.
Behavioral and Emotional Support
Children with ADHD often experience challenges beyond academics, including issues related to behavior and emotional regulation. Our compassionate staff provides the behavioral and emotional support necessary to help students overcome these challenges. Through positive reinforcement, patience, and open communication, we work with students to develop essential skills such as self-regulation, time management, and organizational habits—all crucial for their long-term success.

Specialized Learning Tools and Strategies
Broach Schools utilize specialized learning tools and strategies to keep ADHD students engaged and focused. From hands-on activities and interactive technology to project-based learning, our classrooms stimulate interest and maintain attention.
—Our teachers use ADHD-friendly teaching methods, such as breaking down tasks into smaller steps, incorporating movement breaks, and using visual aids to reinforce learning concepts.
A Supportive, Inclusive Community
One of the most important aspects of success for ADHD students is feeling understood and supported. We pride ourselves on our inclusive community, where students are encouraged to be themselves and celebrated for their strengths. We create an environment that fosters self-confidence, which is key to helping ADHD students overcome challenges and achieve their full potential.
