Our school’s mission is to collaborate with the faculty, staff and parents at Jackson Middle School so as to support and hold each other accountable to respond to all students by reinforcing and recognizing all students’ progress and academic success. The Jackson Middle School community utilizes subject and cluster team collaboration in implementing educational initiatives that meet individualized student needs. Our vision for Jackson Middle School is to continue to be the school of choice in this community by taking pride in and embracing our school’s cultural diversity. We will foster community and family relationships that promote a safe and productive learning environment. We embrace the values of integrity, responsibility, leadership, compassion, citizenship, honesty, and excellence. 

 

Jackson is structured into professional learning communities whose major focus is student achievement.  The professional learning community process is guided by a leadership team (LIGHT Team) composed of teachers and administrators.  The team looks at all aspects of the PLC process to ensure implementation and efficiency at all grade levels and makes recommendations for adjustments to the principal.  The LIGHT team supports all curricular and extra curricular activities at Jackson Middle School. Many of these team members also serve on the campus Site Decision Making Committee (SDMC).
