POINT ALTERNATIVE CENTER

POINT ALTERNATIVE CENTER is a public high school that is part of the GOOSE CREEK CISD school district, located in BAYTOWN, TX with about 37 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 11 teachers, POINT ALTERNATIVE CENTER has a student/teacher ratio of about 3:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

POINT ALTERNATIVE CENTER, located in Baytown, Texas, operates as a specialized educational facility within the Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District (GCCISD). Unlike a traditional comprehensive high school, the center serves as a disciplinary alternative education program (DAEP). Its primary objective is to provide a structured, focused environment for students who have been removed from their home campuses due to violations of the district’s code of conduct.

The school is designed to keep students on track academically while addressing the behavioral challenges that led to their placement. By maintaining a smaller, more supervised setting, POINT ALTERNATIVE CENTER allows students to continue their coursework under the guidance of specialized staff, with the ultimate goal of transitioning them back into the general education population once their disciplinary requirements have been met.
