No they do not have a constitutional right to a jury.
Additional: In some jurisdictions, they have what is known as a juvenile "peer jury" consisting of jurors of the same age-group as the juvie offender. The offender can choose, or not, to be tried by his "peer jury."

In most cases, you have the right to a trial by jury, but this is not a requirement. In a criminal case, if the defendant opts to have a bench trial, there will be no jury. In a civil case, if neither party requests a jury, it will be a bench trial.

The defendant can request a trial held only in front of a judge (bench trial) or trial held in front of a jury (jury trial). In some cases (capital crimes) the option is not offered and a trial by jury is mandatory.
