Alum: Great community to be apart of! There is always a push to improve resources and curriculum. There is a focus on integrating technology in the classroom which sometimes hurt the learning atmosphere. Considering how fast technology changes this may no longer be the case since I've graduated. Learning is prioritized but fun doesn't get left behind. Dances were always fun to plan and promote and attend. S I wish the visual arts programs were more developed and encouraged. While I attended the art teachers really inspired me, but I wish they had better rooms and materials to work with. By the time I graduated high school, I felt very prepared for college. I do think the counselor didn't give me the time of day because I wasn't at the very top of class and I didn't want to become a doctor or lawyer. Either way I got into a top art school in the country and have an amazing job in my field.... Read 95 reviews

Junior: I have been at Jackson Prep since 6th grade and have loved every second of it! The staff and students are some of the best people you will ever meet. I have had the best mentors through the years. So many amazing teachers have taught me valuable lessons not only in the classroom, but also out of class. I feel that Jackson Prep gives you so many more opportunities that you may not get at other schools. The college counseling program is amazing. The art department is absolutely amazing! We have great athletics, clubs and events. I know high school will always be this amazing experience I can look back on as an adult.... Read 70 reviews

Junior: Jackson Academy offers a wide variety of opportunities for its students. There is a wide variety of boys/girls sports that are very successful at the state level, including a D1 producing girls VB team. JA also offers strong arts programs such as show choir, band, theatre, and color guard. Unlike any other MS school, JA offers a sports broadcasting program comparable to SEC sports productions. JA's history and English departments are the strongest academic aspects of the school. The maths and science departments are good, but nothing exceptional. All in all, the school has something for everyone, whether it be challenging academics, high-performing sports, or more creative pursuits.... Read 84 reviews

Parent: MRA is a college prep school with a Christian emphasis that prepared my daughter thoroughly for college! From kindergarten to high school graduation the academics, leadership opportunities, community service programs, and true family atmosphere nurtured her to be very well equipped for her future. The faculty and staff are amazing and still remain interested in her well being even after she graduated.... Read 60 reviews

Senior: The Piney Woods School is a great school for upcoming high schoolers!!! I am currently a uprising senior at the Piney Woods School and every thing is Amazing. I like the dorms a lot, they are set up just like it would be at college. So when you go to college you already know what to expect from the dorms and dorms parents and the other students there. One thing I do not like about the school is the lack of communication the staff and faculty have sometimes, but overall it’s great!!!... Read 30 reviews
