The city of Jackson, Ohio is home to 5 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. Overall, the schools in the Jackson City School District maintain a consistent level of performance, with all schools ranked in the middle 300s out of 839 districts in Ohio and holding a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Two schools stand out in the district - Jackson Middle School, which ranks among the top 30% of Ohio middle schools and has a 4-star rating, and Jackson Southview Elementary School, which ranks among the top 28% of Ohio elementary schools and also has a 4-star rating. Both schools excel in test scores, with Jackson Middle School boasting strong performance in 8th grade science and 6th grade math, and Jackson Southview Elementary achieving over 80% proficiency in 3rd and 4th grade English Language Arts.
While the district maintains consistent performance, there are some areas that warrant further attention, such as the relatively high chronic absenteeism rates across the schools, ranging from 19.8% to 32.9%. Additionally, the per-student spending varies significantly, from $7,296 at Jackson Southview Elementary School to $10,104 at Jackson High School, suggesting potential differences in resource allocation that could be examined.
