ROPES Challenge Course
|
|
ROPES Managers/Facilitators:
ROPES challenge courses provide a setting for learning and self-discovery. Participants problem-solve individually and as a group in a dynamic setting of trust, cooperation, support, communication, and fun. Through experiential activities ROPES provides a reality-based approach to increasing an individual’s self-esteem and team building skills. Many groups, including students and faculty members, have experienced the personal growth provided through ROPES activities.
Our Mission:
ROPES provides experiential education to teach group problem-solving skills, communication skills, and provide opportunities to enhance self-confidence. The primary target population is the at-risk student, althought other students and faculty have access to the ROPES courses after at-risk students' needs are addressed. It is the policy of the Fort Bend ISD ROPES Program that students with disabilities will be accommodated for participation.

Fort Bend Regional Council
|
|
Fort Bend Regional Council on Substance Abuse, Inc.
Studies show that by the time our children reach the age of 12, they may already be destined for a life of drug and alcohol abuse including the social hardships and criminal activity such a life usually entails. That’s why, since 1976, the Fort Bend Regional Council on Substance Abuse has partnered with school districts across Fort Bend County to conduct prevention programs tailored to students in elementary, junior and high school.
(http://www.fortbendcouncil.org/)
Project Success at MRW
Project SUCCESS (Schools Using Coordinated Community Efforts to Strengthen Students) is a national model program that has been proven effective in preventing and reducing teen substance abuse.
Project SUCCESS is a school-based program that works to reduce the factors that put students at risk for substance abuse, while working to enhance the factors that will protect students from the risks. This is accomplished by placing highly trained counselors in schools to provide a full range of substance use prevention and early intervention services. Strategies include:
Giving students information to increase their understanding about the harmful consequences of using alcohol, tobacco and other drugs.
Helping students understand that most teens don’t use alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs.
Providing services to students who are experiencing stress (such as relationship issues, friend’s substance use, etc.) that if not resolved might lead to substance use.
Teaching student skills for resisting peer pressure, responding to conflicts, managing anger, and avoiding and coping with other stressful situations.
Referring students, and their families who need additional help, to services in the school and community.
Working with school and community groups on activities to promote alcohol, tobacco, and drug free lifestyles for teens.
Project SUCCESS counselors work with students individually and in small groups; conduct classroom presentations; train and consult on prevention issues with school staff and refer and follow up with students and families needing additional services.
PROGRAM COMPONENTS
Project SUCCESS utilizes a combination of activities which have been designed to address the unique needs of adolescents. These include:
The Prevention Education Series
A multi-session Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drug prevention program conducted by the Project SUCCESS Counselor with Middle School and High School through their Life Skills class.
Individual and Group Counseling
The Project SUCCESS Counselor conducts time limited individual and or group counseling at school.

Structured Learning Center (SLC)
|
|
The Structured Learning Center is a setting along the continuum of Special Education services offered for students who are displaying long term challenging behaviors. The purpose of the SLC is to teach students through social skills training, and/or counseling, to display appropriate interpersonal interactions and to demonstrate self-control. The SLC is considered a more restrictive setting for students, because it is off of their home school campus on the M.R. Wood campus.
The SLC is based on a level system which clearly delineates the privileges of each level. As a student earns points to progress to a higher level, the responsibility of the student to maintain appropriate behavior is increased. The student will return to his/her home school campus when they have completed the level system as evident by their ability to display appropriate behaviors.
