Summary
Trustees authorized the superintendent to negotiate and execute the written agreement for the Lubbock County Juvenile Justice Center (LCJJC) educational services and approved the memorandum of understanding for the Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program (JJAEP) for 2025–26.
The Lubbock ISD board on Aug. 28 approved annual agreements to provide the district’s educational services at the Lubbock County Juvenile Justice Center (LCJJC) and renewed the memorandum of understanding for the Juvenile Justice Alternative Education Program (JJAEP) for the 2025–26 school year.
Superintendent Doctor Rolo presented the items and thanked campus principals and staff who supervise the programs, including Georgia Love (principal at LCJJC) and Jorge Sanchez (principal of JJAEP). The presenter noted both facilities are county‑owned and that LCJJC is a residential (day‑and‑night) placement while JJAEP is a day placement; both serve students placed from across Lubbock County and sometimes beyond.
The board voted 7–0 to grant authority to the superintendent to negotiate and execute the LCJJC agreement and to approve the JJAEP MOU for the coming school year. Trustees praised the staff overseeing the programs and emphasized their importance for serving students in residential and day placements.
Administrators said these are annual agreements and that staff will continue supervising program operations. The board’s approval authorizes the superintendent to finalize contracts and ensures the district’s continuing role as the educational provider for students housed or assigned to these county facilities.
