Jackson Preparatory and Early College is an amazing school for many reasons. I love attending JPEC because the teachers are so helpful, everybody there is so accepting, and it actually feels like a safe environment to learn in. Our administrative staff is the best and they really try to have a personal relationship with the students. They are always checking up in the classrooms and letting students know that they are able to talk to them.
Along with having an amazing staff, there is an amazing student body. Our current class president is very involved and is always trying to find new ways to advocate for the students. In my personal opinion, this is one of the best schools for all types of students.

I really enjoyed the teachers at JPEC, as the heightened my high school experience for the better and encouraged my success thoroughly. The only thing I would like to see changed/improved on would be the communication of information with dual-enrolled students, though I have definitely seen improvements on this aspect during the course of my time at the school.
They try to say that there isn’t a lot on bullying but there is and when you get bullied they don’t do anything about it. I told them that I was being bullied and they didn’t even talk to the bully. They don’t provide lunches, so a lot of students don’t eat. We get in trouble for being even 1min late when sometime you have to walk from one side of campus to the other. Some teachers are nice but most of the students are kinda annoying. Sometimes they put you in classes that you don’t need and they won’t let you drop them. They also make up dumb classes and force you to take them, and if you fail it is permanently on your transcript.
