Read what parents are saying about Lee F Jackson School
We have two children in the district and both are currently in Lee F. Jackson and we are loving the school! My daughter had to complete her Kindergarten year during the hybrid model of schooling and the teachers at LFJ did an incredible job giving the students a positive experience filled with learning. The new superintendent in GCSD is making every effort to improve communication and consider the changes our facilities will need over the coming years. With the process just starting for the district's five year strategic plan, it seems like the school district is in a great place to keep the positive things moving forward and make any changes where necessary using data and community input. We are looking forward to continuing on in the district and getting the chance to meet many more of the wonderful families we have encountered here.

I had one child finish LFJ and another one is almost done with his academic career there. The teachers are excellent. The principal and her staff run a tight operation and I never had any problems when I had to reach out. The kindergarten teacher (my children both had the same one) was exactly what one wants in a kindergarten teacher. Both 1st grade teachers were/are also excellent. My 1st grader now receives reading remediation and the teacher is also very good. The pandemic year and a half have been tough: I believe LFJ made the best of the situation.

I have 2 sons in the district and another one starting soon. My oldest has high-functioning autism and ADHD. The district has been amazing with all of his needs and giving us plenty of services. Unlike other districts where you might have to hire a lawyer to get your child what they deserve, this was never the case in Greenburgh. I know other families who come from other districts and go to Greenburgh schools for their services. ALL the teachers care so much and go above and beyond. The school has really been on top of distance learning during the pandemic. Every student has their own school issued laptop. We moved from an apartment a few years ago to a house, but purposely stayed within the district to keep all the services and family atmosphere. The principals and superintendent know me by name and that is a big plus. I would definitely recommend it to others!

My daughter continues to love school and is learning so much so quickly! The literacy program at LFJ is amazing and there is a great focus on STEAM. Even at this age, the kids are quickly becoming lifelong learners.

I love this school. We will be sad to move on next year, but looking forward to more great schools in Greenburgh. Our district is committed to our students and erasing the horrible rumors. The superintendent and her staff work hard to keep us informed and are fully invested in our children. "Do we settle for the world as it is, or do we work for the world as it should be?"
