Placer County Court Schools

Placer County Court Schools, operated by the Placer County Office of Education, serve as a specialized educational program designed for students who are currently under the jurisdiction of the juvenile court system. Located in Auburn, California, the program focuses on providing continuous academic instruction to students in detention or court-ordered placements. The primary mission is to ensure that these students maintain their educational progress and meet state academic standards, effectively bridging the gap between their time in the justice system and their eventual return to traditional school settings or community programs.

The curriculum is tailored to be flexible and highly individualized, recognizing the unique needs of students who have experienced disruptions in their schooling. By providing a structured, supportive learning environment, the school aims to offer students the stability necessary to earn credits toward high school graduation. Additionally, the program emphasizes rehabilitation and life skills, working closely with probation officers and social services to help students develop the behavioral and academic foundations required for long-term success after they leave the facility.
