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 best part about attending Jim hill is the family. How everyone comes together for an event like homecoming and can settle the differences and it's fun. The worst part is the environment around the school and some of the teachers energy.
4.0 Junior

My three years at Jim hill high school has been great. The school spirit has always been top tier in the district of Jackson Public schools. If you are looking to be in a excellent band or choir, Jim Hill is the place to go.
