JUVENILE JUSTICE AEP

21 Students

Secondary School 6th - 11th

School Overview

The facility located at 1673 Terre Colony in Dallas, Texas, functions as a **Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program (AEP)**. These programs are specialized educational settings designed for students who have been removed from their traditional home campuses due to disciplinary infractions or involvement with the juvenile justice system. The primary objective of an AEP is to provide a structured, highly supervised environment that allows students to continue their academic coursework while addressing the behavioral issues that led to their placement.

Because this facility operates under the umbrella of juvenile justice, the educational experience is distinct from a typical public school. The curriculum is focused on maintaining core academic progress—often through self-paced or individualized instruction—while integrating behavioral intervention, counseling, and character development. The ultimate goal of the program is to equip students with the skills, discipline, and academic credits necessary to successfully transition back into a traditional school environment or complete their secondary education requirements.
