These students represent a wide range of scholastic abilities, from the gifted to the academically challenged. Correctional Education Sites (Juvenile Justice Institutions, County Day Schools, County-Operated Group Homes, and Social Service Institutions: Students are referred to Juvenile Court Schools by Probation or Social Services. Correctional education students often display skills well below grade level in most subjects and generally are behind in high school graduation credits/requirements. Students generally display behavioral problems and often come from families that lack the resources needed to successfully meet educational and life goals.
