Abstract

Students in school today are faced with many problems that place them "at-risk" of being unable to complete their educations. Educators are being faced with the task of providing students with assistance in coping with the problems which are interfering with the successful completion of their educations.

Research indicates that one of the most effective means of helping students cope with the problems impeding their success in schools is the student assistance program concept, which is also known as the SAР.

The resulting project shows how one rural school system planned for the implementation of a student assistance program in its junior and senior high schools.
