The education of today's youth is an extremely important focus of our society. The future economic and social quality of our nation is dependent upon the quality of education our youth attain. One aspect of our student population that is often overlooked are those student's who are incarcerated. Across this nation there are thousands of children who are confined to juvenile correctional facilities for a plethora of reasons. Many of these children exhibit disabilites and severe educational deficiencies. What are the quality of special education programs within these facilities? How do these programs meet the individual needs of students within these unique environments? How are these programs evaluated and by whom? Dr. Bailey's research sheds light into the dark and forgotten world of juvenile correctional education for incarcerated delinquents.
