Jacob is in the 5th grade. He has ADHD and an emotional/behavioral disorder. He gets along with very young kids and adults, but struggles with getting along with other kids his age. He is very aggressive and gets in people's faces. Jacob does not pick up on social cues from others and does not recognize when he is making people uncomfortable.
Jacob speaks very loudly. His academic skills are at the 3rd grade level. He does not put much effort into his work because he does not see the point in learning or going to school. His frustration can easily and quickly turn into a temper tantrum and it takes a very long time for him to calm down. A large part of his school day is spent working through emotional/behavioral issues.
