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.

Love the teachers and staff at Jackson Elementary. There is an open line of communication between teachers and parents for any questions. The school has fun activities planned throughout the year, an active PTA and my child is excited to go to school each day.

I am not too happy with this school. I just feel like the staff are very cold and they could care less definitely not friendly. It’s more of a nice nasty environment there .

I have two students at Jackson. We have been supported and encouraged by teachers, administrators, staff, and PTA. Even though it is a large school, everyone is very friendly and makes an effort to get to know you and makes you feel like part of the community.

Last year I had an awesome teacher, this year has been a night mare. Staff doesn’t care to make things better. Some teachers should be fired.
