LCISD works in conjunction with Fort Bend County Commissioners Court, The Juvenile Board, Juvenile Probation Department, and other school districts in Fort Bend County to provide a community-based Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program (JJAEP).
Students who have committed serious offenses and/or who have been expelled, as mandated by Texas Education Code (Subchapter G, Section 37) shall be reassigned to the Fort Bend County Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program. Additionally, students who have violated the district’s Student Code of Conduct may also be expelled to this program.
The setting, referenced as a Juvenile Justice AEP and as defined by Texas Education Code (Section. 37.01) has been cooperatively developed and executed as specified in an interlocal agreement.
The length of assignment is determined by the judicial system and/or by Lamar CISD, as specified by the memorandum of agreement with the Fort Bend County Juvenile Justice Authorities.
