Jackson Academy is a very well-rounded school that prepares students for university. My favorite part of Jackson Academy is the education itself, the education system at this school made me feel at ease moving to collegiate level schooling. One aspect of Jackson Academy that could be improved is their band department, however with not as many kids in attendance as that of a public school, this is to be expected.

Blonde moms of JA do not have patience nor curiosity for the unknown. If you don’t care about socializing with other parents and care only about education for you kid, t...

Jackson academy's greatest treasure is their teachers. Many teachers go above and beyond their contracted duties through bible studies, outdoor trips, or just after school mentoring. As someone who has been both a student and a teacher at JA, I have watched it grow and change. Many things have chang...
