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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

For the almost 4 years I've attended, most of the time there has been a good relationship with the teacher and the student. There is a lot of one on one with the Teacher and other staff, if need be. They check up on how you're doing if there is a change in behavior, attendance, classwork and so on. Teachers try to get you to push yourself to try to do the best you can to get you're mindset ready for college.

I loved my teachers I've never had so much support from an instructor or admin staff. When I found it hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel my teachers would be there to push me through those hard times. Although, I got so much love for JJSE they could use a little work, I wish there was more of a community feeling along with more school spirit. I would like to see some pep rallies, dances that collaborate with neighboring high schools, and better school games.

The food isn't cooked at the school, it's provided by this company called Revolution foods, and the school just heats them. Sometimes the cafeteria workers cook the food it ranges from pasta to burritos.

I am a Senior at JJSE, i came into the school my 9th grade year and I was one of those students you would have called ignorant or uninterested in their education. I hated school in middle school and i never viewed...
I am Rating June Jordan a 5 because, I believe JJSE is one of the best schools in San Francisco. I am a student at JJSE and would never think of transferring schools.

I am a freshman at this school and I love this school but it seriously does not prepare you for college. This school is too easy and if your GPA is higher than a 3.0 you might feel that this school is too easy and the work they give u makes you feel dumb beacuse of how EASY it is. The teachers are n...
They do not prepare the students for college. They let students graduate whom should not. They enhance subjects, rather than emphasizing the CORE SUBJECTS. They have they call an intersession, (supposed to take the place of PE-over half of the activities do not involve PE) we as parents spend approx...
