I went to high school here and I can say that some of the people teaching me were some of the best people I've ever known. On top of everything the principal really cares about his school and does everything he can to make it better. As he continues to assemble a better team of teachers (he is constantly reviewing and getting rid of teachers who aren't doing their job) the schools test scores are improving. And also the school is pretty small, but there are lots of opportunities to be found. Mr. Gonzalez takes a group of students to Europe just about every year, and Spanish Club goes on an annual trip (we went to NYC one year and it was amazing). You just have to find a way to plug in and if you behave in classes (and aren't a pain) the teachers will bend over backwards to help.
Our daughter loves Jackson High, she is an Honor Student and often comments on how she appreciates just how much the teachers that she has had the opportunity to have are willing to help when needed. We are looking forward to anther Super Year!
When we first came to Jackson High, I was unsure of how our daughter would be treated due to her prior experience at another school in Gwinnett county. I spoke with her counselor, Mrs. Rankin and told her my feelings and how my husband and I felt. She has improved with the help of Mrs. Rankin and has made a huge turn around in her life . I can't say thank you enough to Mrs. Rankin in sticking by our daughter and encouraging her.We are so happy we switched schools now and have seen our daughter grow in so many ways. Thanks Mrs. Rankin for giving our daughter a chance and not mis judging her on her prior records. Our daughter loves most of her teachers as well and is now an honor roll student. Thanks to the staff at JHS.
