About

Welcome to the Judy Jester Learning Center

The Judy Jester Learning Center (JJLC -Alternative school -A school) is located at 371 School Street in Moulton. We are between the Lion's Club and the Lawrence County Career Tech Center.

Our Center was designed and implemented to benefit those students who have exhibited problems adjusting to traditional education settings.  We offer an opportunity for placement of such students in a separate setting and provide an atmosphere conducive to changing patterns of inappropriate academic behavior and/or inadequate effort.  The number one goal is to assist students in the development of self-esteem, self control, improved socialization skills, a positive attitude toward learning, and increased academic achievement.  Students are admitted according to "at-risk" criteria, upon referral by school personnel.  Each school should have a committee of school officials and/or other professionals to make recommendations for admittance.  At this time, only students in 9th-12th grade will be admitted to the alternative program. 

The Judy Jester Learning Center campus is also home to the Behavioral Center (formerly known as COPS).

The Behavioral Center is designed and implemented to benefit those students who have exhibited problems adjusting to traditional education settings and rules in lieu of suspension or expulsion.  It offers an opportunity for placement of such students in a separate setting and provides an atmosphere conducive to changing patterns of inappropriate behavior and/or inadequate effort in academics.
