GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The teachers are rude to us kids. The food is like prison food. It has bugs and hair in it. The janitors don't clean the school right. We have bugs. The counselor never helps you with your problems. He just yells at you.

Andrew Jackson has the worst staff that I've seen in years. Several of the teachers are so rude and hateful to students. Good students and, no matter who you bring it up to it never changes. I'm very disappointed in this school. I don't send my kids to school to be treated rudely.
