Case Study B: Kevin

Kevin is 11 years old and in grade five. He presents as intelligent and athletic; however, he

also is very disruptive in the classroom. Kevin lacks attention, energy, or effort to do his

homework assignments. He is smart enough to coast through his classes yet lacks real

learning. Kevin is a popular student and takes part in class activities, but there tends to be a

negative outcome due to his hyperactivity and bullying of others. Kevin’s parents do not

acknowledge there is a problem and believe the school administration’s job is to manage kids

in the classroom. Kevin’s participation in a field trip was recently revoked for his acting-up

behavior. The parents are livid and now in the principal’s office to discuss their concerns.
