Secondary School 7th - 11th

School Overview

The facility located at 86 Dyess in Denison, Texas, serves as the **Cooke, Fannin, and Grayson Counties Juvenile Post-Adjudication Facility**. This institution functions as a secure residential setting for juveniles who have been adjudicated by the court system. Unlike a standard detention center intended for short-term holding, a post-adjudication facility is designed to provide long-term residential treatment, behavioral intervention, and rehabilitation for youth committed to the program by juvenile judges from the three-county jurisdiction.

The facility focuses on providing a structured environment that combines custody with educational and therapeutic programming. Because it serves a multi-county region, the center is tasked with addressing the specific developmental and behavioral needs of youth while maintaining compliance with state juvenile justice standards. Residents typically participate in daily educational instruction, counseling services, and skill-building programs aimed at reducing recidivism and preparing them for a successful reintegration back into their respective communities upon release.
