DAEP

DAEP is a public school that is part of the YORKTOWN ISD school district, located in SMILEY, TX.

The facility located at 102 US Hwy 87 W in Smiley, Texas, operates as a **Disciplinary Alternative Education Program (DAEP)**. In the Texas public school system, a DAEP is a specialized educational setting designed to serve students who have committed specific disciplinary infractions. These programs are intended to provide a structured, restrictive environment where students can continue their academic coursework while undergoing behavioral intervention and character development, away from their home campus.

The primary goal of this facility is to maintain a safe and orderly learning environment for the broader school district while ensuring that students removed from their regular classrooms do not fall behind in their studies. Students assigned to this location typically follow a rigorous, highly supervised curriculum that emphasizes core subjects and behavioral compliance. Once a student fulfills the requirements of their placement and demonstrates the necessary behavioral progress, they are generally permitted to transition back to their home campus.

For more information, contact DAEP at (361) 564-2252 or visit the school personally to speak with a faculty or administrative member about any specific questions you may have.
