JUVENILE DETENTION

JUVENILE DETENTION is a public school that is part of the ORANGE school district, located in ORLANDO, FL with about 111 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 12th Grade. With about 13 teachers, JUVENILE DETENTION 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.

The school associated with the address 2800 S. Bumby Ave in Orlando is the **Orange County JUVENILE DETENTION Center School**, which operates as part of the Orange County Public Schools (OCPS) district. This facility provides essential educational services to youth who are currently being held in the juvenile justice system. Because the students are in a secure detention environment, the school focuses on ensuring that their education remains continuous, helping them stay on track with their academic requirements while they await court proceedings or placement.

The curriculum is designed to be flexible and individualized, recognizing that students may arrive at various times and possess widely different academic needs. Teachers at this facility work closely with the school district to transition students’ credits, provide credit recovery opportunities, and maintain educational stability despite the students' temporary status. The primary objective is to offer a structured, supportive learning environment that helps mitigate the interruption of their schooling and prepares them for their eventual transition back into traditional school settings or other educational programs.
