REMANN HALL JUVENILE DETENTION CENTER

Remann Hall Juvenile Detention Center is a public high school that is part of the Tacoma School District school district, located in Tacoma, WA with about 25 students offering grade levels from 5th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 3 teachers, Remann Hall Juvenile Detention Center has a student/teacher ratio of about 8:1. 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.

Remann Hall, located in Tacoma, Washington, serves as the juvenile detention center for Pierce County. It is a secure facility that provides temporary custody for youth who have been arrested and are awaiting court proceedings, as well as those who have been sentenced to serve time in detention. Unlike a traditional academic institution, Remann Hall operates with a focus on safety, security, and the legal processing of minors, functioning under the jurisdiction of the Pierce County Juvenile Court.

While the primary function of the facility is detention, it also includes an educational component designed to ensure that incarcerated youth maintain some continuity in their schooling. The educational program is typically staffed by certified teachers who work to provide core academic instruction, credit retrieval, and special education services tailored to the short-term or transitional nature of the students' stays. The ultimate goal of the programming within the facility is to mitigate the interruption of the students' educational progress while they address their legal requirements within the juvenile justice system.
