About Jackson Magnet School
Jackson Magnet School prepares students to be creative, constructive, compassionate thinkers.  The school’s core belief is that children come first. The school demonstrates this by offering all children the opportunity for acceleration to achieve their full potential. Jackson's reading classes use Readers Workshop, a proven curriculum that emphasizes small, achievement-based reading groups.


Jackson's media center is the heart of the school, and is visited daily by all children for reading and research purposes.  The school also offers accelerated math classes. The school-wide geography curriculum is unique to our building.  Jackson encourages parent involvement and strives for a partnership between home, school and community. The school is able to nurture children as individuals and engage them in a learning process which emphasizes academic rigor and growth in a small, friendly close-knit community.
