We opted to send our child to a private school because of the high teacher-student ratio at public schools. However, we've been quite disappointed with the quality of teachers at JWP. Some teachers seem to lack dedication and enthusiasm for their work, which unfortunately affects the children's experience.

Most definitely overpriced catholic school. Send your kids to local catholic school, half the tuition better results to place in exam schools, or public school. This is an average school. Kids are mean and spoiled and teachers play favorites. Extremely mean gym teacher. Not good value fir the tuition money.

It is wonderful school, where all my kids love to get up in the morning and seeing their teachers and friends. It is welcoming environment where Principle greets childrens as they are off the cars. It has has small size class where each individuals get all the attentions they want. Lots of extra-curriculums. They do a great job on preparing students to go to next level and succeed. We are happy and our 2 years old will be attending in the future.

She has been academically challenged and supported during this transition, and she has embraced all that JWP offers. She is eag...

Cannot be happier that my kids attend JWP- only regret that I did not enroll them sooner (they entered into 3rd and 4th grades). Wonderful community, great education.

We are parents of two students at Jackson School – and will soon add a third student. We have had 5 years of experience with the Jackson School team and have had a very positive experience. The school has special notable characteristics. First, the team of people – both administration and teachers –...
