My overall experience at Miami Jackson has been a roller coaster because it's been hard sometimes but i feel like i can get through it. My freshman year was one of my best years there. My sophomore year wasn't the best but it was good it was because of the testing. And now my junior year is gonna be rough for me but i feel like i got this. And the food there isn't the greatest i feel like it needs to be better.

In my experience, Jackson Senior High is a pretty average school. The teachers do their best to ready students for the future, as do the administration team. If there's something I would change, it'd be budgeting. It was a common occurrence for there not to be enough supplies for every student in the classroom, which often led to teachers being forced to pay out of pocket to ensure everyone had what they needed.

I have a daughter that graduated from this school and this school has made tremendous progress since then. I believe that they are striving for excellence and they will become one of the greatest schools around.

Miami Jackson need to improve in dealing with the concern parents by at least responding to parents phone calls as well as e-mails. Selected administration don't feel as if it is important to respond to a parent concern. Also, certain information concerning the students is not related to the student...
