The Disciplinary Alternative Education Program (DAEP) provides an educational placement for eligible students whose disruptive behavior in the regular classroom impedes the educational process. The ultimate goal of DAEP is to have each student successfully return to his or her regular classroom prepared to make good decisions, set goals, and achieve academically. 

Our objective is to foster students' development of their own discipline, and their own self-control. Disruptive behavior will not be tolerated. If a student chooses to break a rule, consequences will be administered promptly and fairly. The DAEP follows the guidelines of the Ennis ISD Student Code of Conduct and practices a positive and proactive discipline philosophy throughout the classroom.
