Identification and descriptive analysis of selected characteristics of Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program administrators [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The purpose of this study was to describe selected characteristics of individuals serving as administrators in Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Programs (JJAEP's). In 1997, the Texas Legislature mandated the implementation of Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Programs (JJAEP's) for some of our most at-risk students. These programs were to be a special category of programs designed to go one step beyond some form of adjudication. The purpose of these programs was to allow disruptive students to be removed from class, but still remain within the educational system. The Texas Education Code, Chapter 37 mandated the development and implementation of Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program subject to the approval of the Texas Juvenile Probation Commission (TJPC) in counties with populations of more then 125,000. Each juvenile board is required to have a “memorandum of understanding” detailing the operation of the JJAEP. There are currently twenty-six mandated JJAEP's in the State of Texas. The purpose of this study was to describe and document selected demographic, professional, and attitudinal characteristics of individuals currently serving as administrators in these Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Programs. Descriptive statistics were utilized to analyze data reported by survey respondents. Twenty-five of the twenty-six total JJAEP administrators returned a completed survey. The results were reported by frequency of each response and by percentages. The results were summarized as findings, implications for practice, and recommendations for further research.
