WILLIAMSON COUNTY DETENTION CENTER

WILLIAMSON COUNTY DETENTION CENTER is a Title I public secondary school that is part of the LEANDER ISD school district, located in GEORGETOWN, TX with about 2 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 10th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education.

The WILLIAMSON COUNTY DETENTION CENTER, located at 1821 SE Inner Loop in Georgetown, Texas, serves as the primary correctional facility for Williamson County. Managed by the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office, the facility is responsible for housing individuals who have been arrested and are awaiting trial, as well as those serving sentences for misdemeanor or felony offenses within the county’s jurisdiction. The center is designed to maintain public safety while managing the intake, processing, and long-term supervision of an inmate population that ranges from low-security detainees to higher-risk individuals.

Beyond basic confinement, the facility operates with a focus on institutional security, medical screening, and the constitutional mandate to provide humane treatment to those in custody. Because it functions as a county jail rather than a state prison, it acts as a central hub for the local criminal justice system, facilitating inmate appearances in county courts and coordinating with legal counsel and rehabilitation services. The facility’s operations are governed by the Texas Commission on Jail Standards, ensuring that the center adheres to state-mandated regulations regarding inmate welfare, sanitation, and safety protocols.
