* Please note: A medical diagnosis alone is insufficient to determine eligibility for special education services. Not all medical diagnoses are chronic or acute health conditions. Some of these diagnoses may be considered in other special education disability categories depending on presenting problems. Example: A student with an acquired brain injury may have significant motor problems (PH), a student with ADHD may have additional diagnoses and significant acting out behavior and authority issues (EBD).
