Hey everyone I was wondering if anyone knows whether or not schools frown upon having to give accommodations to students with ADHD? Is it something we shouldn't worry about presenting to the school ? Or are most schools understanding ?

Schools are legally required to provide reasonable accommodation for students with a documented disability. Such a request will not be frowned upon in any way as long as you can provide the appropriate and requested documentation necessary. Talk to your Director of Student Affairs or other similar administrator about how to request an accommodation for your disability.
