St. Clair County Intervention Academy

What St. Clair County Intervention Academy does

St. Clair County Intervention Academy is a public charter school located in Port Huron, Michigan, operating as a Strict Discipline Academy under the Michigan Department of Education. Founded in 2002, it serves court-adjudicated youth in grades 6-12, with an average enrollment of approximately 118 students per school year and an average length of stay near four months. The academy delivers instruction primarily through the Edgenuity virtual learning platform, supplemented by four highly-qualified teachers providing face-to-face intervention support. Three distinct programs operate on the single campus at 1170 Michigan Road: a Traditional Day Treatment/Night Watch program, an Intense Treatment Day Treatment/Night Watch program, and a Jail-Side Classroom program for St. Clair County jail inmates seeking GED or credit recovery.

The school's charter is authorized by the Port Huron Area School District, and The Romine Group serves as Educational Service Provider, employing all staff and administering benefits. Combined academic and clinical services run from 8am to 6pm Monday through Friday, with random residence checks as part of the Night Watch component. The business model is public funding rather than tuition: as a Title IA school-wide program under the Michigan school finance system, the academy receives per-pupil state foundation allowance funding, with no tuition charged to enrolled students or their families.

Governance is provided by a Board of Directors whose President represents the St. Clair County Sheriff's Department, embedding the institution within the juvenile justice referral pipeline that drives enrollment. The academy also maintains referral relationships with St. Clair County Community College, Macomb County Community College, and MichiganWorks Service Centers for post-program workforce pathways. Strict Discipline Academy designation, court referral infrastructure, and combined academic-clinical delivery constitute the principal structural assets of the operation.
