The Right Choice For A Positive Future · DEO · M-DCPS
A structured, caring, and academically rigorous environment for adjudicated youth — building the skills, confidence, and character needed to re-enter society and thrive.
JJCS is part of DEO's Corrective Action Support Network alongside Metro West Detention Center and the One Stop Program — responding, restoring, redeeming, and reclaiming every student's potential.
JJCS is a Miami-Dade County Public School under the Division of Educational Opportunities (DEO), providing structured, high-quality education for adjudicated youth in grades 6–12.
Our motto "We Care" drives everything we do — from aligning our curriculum with M-DCPS standards to providing the individualized support each student needs to succeed both inside and beyond the detention experience.
From credit recovery and social-emotional learning to DJJ collaboration and re-entry planning, every service we offer is built around one belief: every student deserves a second chance.
M-DCPS aligned curriculum across ELA, Math, Science, and Social Studies for grades 6–12.
