Jackson Independent School is a wonderful school with a family like atmosphere. You pretty much get a one on one experience with each teacher unlike other schools, due to small class sizes. Although class sizes are small, the school has grades Pre-K through 12th grade. Everyone knows each other even if they aren’t in the same grade. The only thing I would change about this school is adding more classes to be able to take. Some classes have to be taken through the college so students can earn the credits to graduate. This could be more difficult for some students, so adding classes would be beneficial.
Jackson Independent School is wonderful. Many students who go here, graduate, and go on to college always mention that they were well prepared for college. It may be a very small school, but it provides an amazing level of education.
Being such a small school, everyone knows each other. You really get the one on one time you need as a student here. The majority of the teachers and counselors really care about you academics and your path after graduation. Of course, things could be better. But that is the same for every school. We have amazing academics and test scores. At Jackson Independent, we have much better academics than sports. I must say our food is pretty gross though, other than pizza day.
