Read what parents are saying about Jackson Elementary SchoolMy son enroll at Jackson with way below average reading abilities and scores Jackson Elementary help him turn around in less than a year. THE BEST SCHOOL AROUND BY FAR....Great staff and best Principal.
Posted by a parent on 9/14/2015Our kids have been at this school since it opened when my older daughter was a 1st grader. With the exception of her first grade teacher, we've had great teachers and have found the principal very willing to work with us on finding the right fit between our kids' learning styles and the teacher's style of teaching.
Posted by a parent on 3/9/2015Good school, but............. If the school/district wants to make a dent in the test scores teachers need to be held to much higher standards. Accountability is a key word here. If a teacher does not perform, get them out and end all those games with the teacher's union. Just because you've worked for the school for 20 years does not mean you are a good teacher. Reward good, passionate performers; get rid of the lazy ones. So far, out of 4 years, we had 2 good teachers and 2 lazy, I will show up as I please teachers. Really don't like going to these beginning of the year meetings and hearing all teachers say that they don't know how to use the web-site & systems because it's new. Is it new every year? What were you doing for the 3 months during the summer? Macy's does not open their stores to the public without the staff knowing how to use cash registers. Stop whining and stop making excuses. Be prepared; be organized, after all we are paying you for it.
Posted by a parent on 12/16/2013Jackson has come along nicely since opening a couple years ago. I have been very pleased with my son's teachers and overall school.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy experience as a parent is more than "it's a great school". It's a school that makes you go "WOW!" It makes you want to bring everyone you know to the school to see the amazing things the school and students are doing to be better people and representations of the community. The children that go to this school are on their way to be very successful and compassionate people. I love to see the children going above and beyond to open doors for people, asking others if they need help carrying something down the hall or picking up a mess that spilled from a lunch tray in the cafeteria. I enrolled my children in this school not knowing anyone, but after a few days of watching how things work, I was assured I picked the best school for my children. The school made me want to better myself to be a better parent to my children, so I started volunteering at the school. Here I have made amazing friendships with other parents, found a way to fulfill the empty void by being a part of something great, and became a role model for my children's friends. Last year was rough on everyone having to be home due to Covid, but we all found ways to connect to support each other. The teachers went above and beyond to make sure their students were being taken care of. If this meant going to the student's home to wave through the window they did it. This year the teachers are doing everything they can to keep the children in the classroom. This means social-distancing with friends, washing hands, reminding parents and students the importance of cleanliness by washing water bottles everyday and changing out masks when someone sneezes. The awesome part is the students know this so well they are reminding parents of the importance of cleanliness. I could go on and on about how AWESOME Sacs is, but until you see it for yourself words can not describe the safe warm feeling you get when you are there.Parent Review3y ago - Minnesota Montessori Accelertd Learning Center Inc
