This study aims to develop an academic resilience intervention program to improve academic resilience among at-risk higher secondary school students. The experimental method was employed in this research. A sample of 50 at-risk students was selected using a stratified sampling method from the population of 305. Then, those selected 50 samples were randomly allocated to two groups, namely, the academic resilience intervention group and the other control group. The academic resilience intervention group received the resilience intervention program for nine consecutive weeks, while the control group was set aside from the academic resilience intervention program. Pre-tests and post-tests were conducted for the academic resilience intervention and control groups. The data was analyzed using paired t-tests and ANCOVA. The significant results showed that the intervention program enhanced academic resilience among higher secondary-level students. Ans most importantly, the study revealed a notably high number of at-risk students in this district. This highlights the urgent need for other local communities to evaluate the situation and if the same situation prevails, it is urgent to research to know the cause and to take immediate action to foster academic resilience for the well-being of their students. This paper’s uniqueness is its potential to address at-risk students, uniquely in the Indian context, through an academic resilience intervention program.Abstract
