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.

Andrew Jackson Middle School is an excellent school. The teachers and administrators work tirelessly to make a happy, healthy, and inviting environment for their students . The school's only problem is an ungrateful community and students who refuse to do their work and misbehave. You will find that hard working, well behaved students have very satisfied parents.
