Document Summary
The physical structure of juvenile training school varies from cottage settings to open dormitories, and maximum security facilities may house residents in individual cells. The secure training schools have an institutional appearance inside and out, with high fences surrounding them, locked doors, and screens on bars and windows. Medium security training schools often are surrounded by fences. Many training schools do have some good programs, including medical and dental care; an accredited school; vocational training; recreation; and treatment programs. Rehabilitation is still the primary purpose of juvenile training schools.
