It really depends on the school and the individual. I've heard of 5th graders cheeking ritalin and storing them up, then taking many at once. By highschool, I'd say many students know that ritalin has abuse potential.
There have been many problems of students selling (younger to older) in schools.
Its also not uncommon for kids in highschool to have tried a friends stimulant prescription and then faking ADHD symptoms to get some.
Furthermore, the situation is more complicated in university/college.
