ADHD High School Student

Hi Sandman...does the book you always reference go over ways to make an ADHD person more organized?  My son is apparently "hit or miss" with homework.  He does not always get it written down in his agenda book.  He does have some accommodations but to be honest, I have not seen the actual IEP.  He has a second set of books at home.  The IEP manager is looking into this for me with his teachers.  I just wanted to know of there were any strategies that work for these kids.  He is 15 by the way and a Freshman.  

I will be following up on the IEP.

    shoot, on vacation now and left book at home.  If I remember correctly she has a whole section on homework.  So it should  be covered there.  She also has a full section on things that should be in 504's or IEPs (if I remember correctly).
   Also, many schools now post homework on the internet (they all should!)
  And something about getting his homework written down should be in his IEP.  His manager should be very helpful with this
    And this site has a number of good ideas
