FELMERS O CHANEY CORRECTIONAL CENTER

Felmers O Chaney Correctional Center is a public high school that is part of the Wisconsin Department of Corrections school district, located in Milwaukee, WI offering grade levels from 7th Grade to 12th Grade.

The Felmers O. Chaney Correctional Center (FCCC) is not a traditional school, but rather a **minimum-security correctional facility** operated by the Wisconsin Department of Corrections. Located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, it serves as a transitional center for adult male offenders. The facility is primarily focused on rehabilitation and successful reintegration into society, operating under a mission to help residents transition from incarceration back into the community through work-release programs and structured oversight.

Because it functions as a correctional institution, the "education" provided at the facility is vocational and rehabilitative in nature rather than academic in a collegiate sense. The center emphasizes workforce development, requiring eligible residents to maintain employment in the Milwaukee area. By focusing on employment, life skills training, and community-based programming, the center aims to reduce recidivism by ensuring that individuals have the financial stability and behavioral tools necessary to become productive, law-abiding members of the community upon their release.
