County in Minnesota will ends its management of school at detention center

From The Minneapolis Star-Tribune: A school run by the Anoka County, Minn., government for 35 years will soon be incorporated into the Centennial School District. The county is ending an arrangement under which it has operated Pines School on the grounds of the juvenile detention center in Lino Lakes. Increasing testing regulations, curriculum requirements and teacher licensure standards have made it more difficult for the county to run the school, officials say. Courts, social service agencies and other school systems send more than 800 young people every year to the school. About 100 attend at any given time.
