My experience at Jackson Independent School is average, to say the least. I have attended Jackson since Kindergarten and since then, I have made some outstanding relationships. Jackson is a K-12 school and when you attend here, you will feel like you have a second family because of how everyone is so close to each other. Here, I feel as if it has the best academics which will get the students college ready. In fact, my class placed third in the state with ACT scores. This school has been functioning for over one hundred years, standing in the same place and way it has been since the beginning. Therefore, it is pretty old and you can tell because of the way the floor squeaks and just simply from the looks of it. So, it would be great to see some remodeling to make it look a lot better than what it has been all of these years past.
Jackson Independent is an excellent school. The teachers and facility are great people who look out for their students and help them succeed. The class are just hard enough that the students will learn from them. It is also a school that is extremely focused on college readiness, with the options to take college course you sophomore year. This school is also very involved with the parents of its students, with the parents being included in everything that the school does. The food is not a five star meal but it is pretty good. Also, there is a large amount of extracurricular activities, that include sport, chess, and academics.
Jackson Independent has a very close-nit atmosphere. It is a second home to my peers and me. It is an amazing school and is ran by the best. It is also very well kept.
