About Jackson School

Our Mission

Empowering all students to be drivers of their future.

Our Vision

Jackson has a strong reputation as a reading workshop school with caring staff who empower students to learn at a high level.

Jackson’s staff and students use technology as a tool to learn the core subjects with creativity and innovation. Classrooms are equipped with SMARTboards, projectors, and 1-to-1 Chromebooks for students in grades 2-5, as well as 1-to-1 iPads for students in grades K-1. All of these devices are used for differentiation and motivation, and most importantly, lead to higher levels of engagement.

Jackson School has a robust Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO), which organizes a variety of events, including monthly social activities for students and their families. The highlight and kick-off to the school year is the annual Brat Fry in September. This is the school’s major fundraiser and is guaranteed to be a great time for all ages.

Jackson is situated on a large campus featuring an outdoor environmental lab and fitness areas available for student and community use. The abundant green space includes a wildflower area, walking trail, disc golf course, and classroom gardens. The school cafeteria is home to a very special Magic Tree House reading center. Volunteers built the Magic Tree House from donations to encourage students to take time to enjoy books. Families and groups use the Magic Tree House to inspire a love of reading.

Jackson is a Workshop School and is known as a Data-Driven Instruction School. We were honored to be involved in a Department of Education Data-Driven Research program. Our involvement transformed our school functioning as we positively impacted our staff & students’ effectiveness and efficiency.

Our enrollment is around 350 students. There are also many support services available, including guidance, English Learners (EL) services, interventions, a mentoring program with Lakeland University, and before- and after-school care.
