Jackson Elementary School

Jackson Elementary School, which is located in Hillsboro, Oregon, is known for its high academic performance and supportive environment for learning. As a component of the Hillsboro School District, it believes that all children should have equal access to quality education and career-readiness skills from an early age. The students at the school outperform their peers both in the district and statewide, with approximately 61% being proficient in math and 57% proficient in reading. Families have settled in the area not only because of the great schools but also because of the average housing rent of about $2,000 a month. All of these academic recognitions and commitment to the community allow Jackson Elementary School to be recognized as possibly one of the best elementary schools in Oregon.

Jackson Elementary hosts its Book Fair from November 13–19 and will finish the auditions for the upcoming Jr. JAG Spring Musical earlier this month.
