This is a great school. Two years ago, it was rated a 9, but now it's a 7. Im not sure what caused the change, though we recently had an influx of students, including some with behavioral challenges, and many new families moving in. Before COVID, the school was very different. With my third child now attending, Im hopeful it will return to its previous standards and scores.

Jackson Elementary has provided a warm, loving, challenging environment for my children. The positive environment starts at the top with principal, Mrs. Miller, and she leads by example. The teachers follow suit and we have been very happy here after transferring from another local school after a house change. My one son's special needs have been addressed well, and all four of my kids have experienced much learning, success, and growth. The parents are encouraged to volunteer in and out of the classroom and the PTO is amazing! There are so many extra-curricular activities available: sports, choir, drama, science activities, art, video production lab, etc. Technology and the arts are also integrated into every day learning. Kindness and acceptance are strongly encouraged and the kids have had great social experiences. Jackson is truly a great place to be!

We have just finished our 9th year at Jackson. Both of my kids attended Jackson from kindergarten through 5th grade. Every year, when we didn't think we could love our teachers anymore, we were pleasantly surprised. Jackson is not just a school; it's a tight knit community. Our principal has been here for 25 years and treats everyone like family. We will miss you, Jackson!

Jackson Elementary has it all...the most dedicated, hard working teachers and a principal who supports her staff and students...offering unique programs and enrichment opportunities. The families are very committed as well with a strong PTO. It has the kind of neighborhood feel and sense of community I always wanted for my kids...living the dream!!

Jackson Elementary is a strong balance of great Leadership, teachers who are invested in successful academic performance outcomes, and their enthusiasm for teaching is demonstrated on a daily basis. The prinicpal is invested in knowing each student beginning at the Kindergarten level. She is always striving to incorporate new programs to stimulate children's love of learning.
