What Parents Should Know

At 4:1 students to teachers, Juvenile Detention Ctr sits well below the national average. Smaller classes like that usually mean more one-on-one time between students and teachers.

Why doesn't this school have a score?
We don't have enough verified data to rate this school fairly. This can happen when a school is very new, very small, or has limited test score reporting to the state.
Our rating model requires at least 2 of 4 data components (academics, student progress, college readiness, and resources) to generate a meaningful score. Schools below this threshold receive a Limited Profile to avoid misleading ratings.
