  • Report Bullying

    11/20/2016

    Report Now Saying no to a bully and to bullying begins with reporting! Students are free to report bullying anonymously by using this online form. Every report will be reviewed by Mrs. Nolen and Mr. Crabtree. In many cases, students will be talked with to get more information or to simply share the report. 

    Students who are experiencing teasing or bullying need to be encouraged to reach out to their trusted adults for help. Parents, teachers, counselors, and your principals are here to help. Ask for time to talk with any of us or complete the anonymous report and tell us you want to meet in the description.

    Students and families can learn more about bullying here.

  • Welcome to Jackson Middle School

    6/18/2019
    Welcome to Jackson Middle School. It is a pleasure and an honor to have the opportunity to share with you all that makes Jackson a fantastic place for our middle schoolers. With an amazing teaching staff, Jackson's teachers deeply understand the middle schooler and work together, with parents, as a community! As a Bernstein School of Artful Learning, we understand that middle school is not just about reading, writing, and math but also about nurturing the adolescent and preparing them for high school and the world beyond. A rich dynamic elective program balances our core instruction with art integration at every turn, providing students with experiences and opportunities in inquiry, exploration, reflection, and creation.

  • Jackson's Communication Tools

    8/27/2017
    Dear Jackson Families,
    As we quickly approach the start of the 2017-18 school year, I wanted to remind our families of the many tools we use to communicate with parents and community. It is possible you are already aware and a member of our various channels but in case you are not, follow each link to subscribe.
    "School Messenger" - It is through School Messenger that you are receiving this email. This service uses our student enrollment database to email all parent emails. We use School Messenger just a handful of times each year for messages that are urgent or of high importance. School Messenger also has a text message feature that you _must_ opt in to. The first step is to make sure your cell number is registered on your student's enrollment record. From that phone, text "YES" to 68453. This will be followed by a response text of "You're registered 4 SchoolMessenger...".
    "The JagWire Email List" - This opt-in email list is home to the "JagWire" email newsletter and the PTA news. Subscribers can expect to receive 1 to 3 emails a week regarding pertinent, just-in-time, and event information from the Jackson Office. To subscribe go to the school website at http://jacksonpps.net and click on "JagWire News" under "Quick Links".
