Serving At-Risk Students
Students who are at-risk educationally due to emotional impairments or behavioral issues are served through three highly specialized programs - Sheldon Pines School, the Juvenile Services Center and the Juvenile Justice Institute. Together, these programs save local districts thousands of dollars in specialized programming each year, and offer at-risk students the possibility of a bright future.
Sheldon Pines School
The program at Sheldon Pines is designed to serve students who have severe emotional impairments. Staff members work with students to improve behavior and help them focus on academic achievement so that they may eventually return to their home district.
Juvenile Services Center
The Juvenile Services Center program offers a comprehensive, quality education program for incarcerated youth and serves as a transitional bridge from the Ottawa County Juvenile Services Court system to the local school district. Teachers and students have opportunities for learning through virtual field trips to museums, zoos and NASA's Glenn Space Centerusing video conferencing technology.
Juvenile Justice Institute
The Juvenile Justice Institute (JJI) is a year-round educational program operated by the OAISD for the Ottawa County Family Court. JJI serves adjudicated youth who have an involved history with the Family Court. Although these youth may or may not remain in their homes, they reside and receive treatment locally, through a variety of contracted service providers.
