See top schools in MaconThe Macon Regional Youth Detention Center School is a public alternative school in Macon, Georgia, for kids in grades 6–12 who are in jail. The program works with the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice and the local school system to make sure that students can keep learning while they are in jail. The school only has a few students at a time, so the student-to-teacher ratio is very low, about 5:1. Other subjects include credit recovery and basic skill development. The lessons are meant to meet Georgia state standards and help students get back to their home schools or other programs. Because of the way the setting is, standardized proficiency data for Math and Reading are not made public (N/A). State and public education funds for juvenile justice education pay for the program. The Macon Regional Youth Detention Center School focuses on small classes, structure, and academic continuity. It also provides targeted educational support for students while they are temporarily placed there.
