Original Research by School Decision on Mary B. Perry High
Mary B. Perry High is closed and no longer serves students.
The school was an alternative high school operated by the California Education Authority, the educational arm of California's juvenile correctional system (the Division of Juvenile Justice). Under state law, all DJJ facilities statewide were permanently closed as of mid-2023, with custody and education of youth transferred to county-run secure youth treatment facilities. This closure was a structural dissolution of the entire state system, not a local district decision.
No academic data, enrollment figures, staffing information, or current student demographics are available because the school is no longer operational. State testing data, graduation rates, and school environment metrics do not apply to a closed facility.
If you are researching the history of juvenile education in California or looking for current youth correctional education services in your county, the county's secure youth treatment facility would be the relevant point of contact going forward.
