As a senior at Jackson Liberty High School, I can honestly say I have had a very positive high school experience. As a strong academic student and a varsity athlete, I have benefited from both the high academic expectations and the athletic prowess that JLHS has to offer. My high school experience has been filled with positive relationships and support from teachers, coaches and administrators and the diversified student body has enriched my high school experience. JLHS provides a safe, conducive learning environment for all. The teachers, counselors, coaches and administrators took the time to make sure my academic needs were being met, and I found supports on and off the field. Classes at JLHS are designed with the student in mind and the four learning academies at JLHS allow students that know their path to focus on a single area of study within a structured “cohort” for that specific field of study. The student cones first at JLHS!!!
This is a very good school. Their academic classes are pretty good. The teachers allowed to take my time with my work as an autistic student. I had a Math class during my junior year that would do Movie Mondays for some reason and it had nothing to do with Math. Their diversity of students is pretty good. The College Readiness needs some works as I feel like some of the work I do doesn’t apply what I going to school for. There’s a ton of clubs/activities which is great for students to get involved in. I feel extremely safe in the school. Our sports teams are a mixed bag. Some of them are excellent teams like Cross Country/Track (which I’m been involved in for all 4 years) and Soccer but some of them are just terrible teams like Football and most recently Basketball. Their food is just typical cafeteria food. Their resources are good but I haven’t used since freshman year. Their sciences/math and music/arts are very good. Their Digital Media Academy is great which they prepare you.
Beautiful interior with upgraded facilities. Has negatives in school leadership and students. I know many students who were bullied without end and blamed and punished for it by administration, as the other student was more difficult to deal with or would require being sent to a different school. Many things are confusing or do not get done. Often makes illogical rules and suppresses student's ability to express themselves. In general, the teachers are caring and supportive, but most of my experience is with AP or honors teachers. I have heard negatives about other teachers. Sports teams do not accomplish much, but are easy to join and become a family.
