SAIT Looks to Help Students
The Student Assistance Intervention Team at AAHS is comprised of professionally trained school counselors, teachers, and human service representatives. These personnel identify and assist students who are experiencing behavior or academic problems in school. Some student problems may be related to mental health issues, or alcohol and other drug use.
The Student Assistance Program utilizes a systematic process, along with the specially trained school personnel, to intervene and refer these students to appropriate in-school and/or community services.
Parents' role in the education of their children is very important. Research shows that parent involvement in education increases the likelihood of success for students. This holds true for children experiencing difficulties as well.
Parent support of the student assistance program (SAlT) process is necessary for student success. Students are more likely to benefit from services provided by the team or agency staff when parents are informed, involved, and supportive.
