Summary

Juvenile Justice Alternative Educational Program (JJAEP) is a small public high school in Fort Worth, Texas, serving grades 7-12 and part of the Fort Worth Independent School District (FWISD). With just 29 students, JJAEP has a unique student population and faces significant challenges compared to nearby schools.

JJAEP has a higher percentage of Hispanic (58.62%) and African American (31.03%) students than surrounding schools, and a high rate of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (72.73% to 82.35%), indicating economic disadvantage. The school's academic performance is also concerning, with STAAR EOC test scores in English I Reading (38%) and English II Reading (20%) falling well below FWISD and state averages. Dropout rates at JJAEP have fluctuated, ranging from 0% to 13.9%, generally higher than nearby schools like Paschal High School and Arlington Heights High School.

Despite these challenges, JJAEP has a very low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 1.8 to 5.4, suggesting a high level of individual attention and support. However, the school also has significantly higher spending per student ($66,427 in 2020-2021) compared to other schools in the district, more than double the typical amount. This specialized program likely serves a unique population of students involved in the juvenile justice system, contributing to the school's complex needs and resource requirements.
