BEXAR CO J J A E P

The **Bexar County Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program (JJAEP)**, located at 7101 Broadway St in San Antonio, operates as a specialized educational setting mandated by the Texas Education Code. Unlike traditional public schools, the JJAEP is designed specifically to serve students who have been removed from their home campuses due to mandatory disciplinary actions—such as serious violations of the student code of conduct or involvement in the juvenile justice system. The facility provides a highly structured, secure environment intended to ensure that these students continue their academic progress while undergoing behavioral intervention.

The primary mission of the program is to maintain educational continuity for students while addressing the underlying behavioral issues that led to their placement. The curriculum is typically focused on core subjects—such as English language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies—designed to align with the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) standards, allowing students to transition back to their home school districts once their disciplinary assignment is completed. By combining rigorous academic instruction with a focus on accountability and rehabilitation, the Bexar County JJAEP aims to reduce recidivism and help students successfully reintegrate into the general education population.
