Impulsive behaviour is common complaint of ADHD and this cause significant blow to school performance. The complaints of misbehave to kids and touching girls are most probably due to impulsivity. If he is not on any medications then consult a Psychiatrist to start his medicines. Medicines like stimulants as Amphetamines, methylphenidate are very useful in controlling undesired behaviour. Non stimulant medicines like atomoxetine also have good results.
Behavior therapy and cognitive therapy both have good roles in ADHD. Token economy is useful to get desired behaviour from him. Toke economy is a part of behavioural management of ADHD patients. Consult a psychologist for details of this treatment. Try to talk to him, don't argue with him and don't punish him for any reason.
Thanks, hope this helps you
