Summary

Jackson Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Roswell, Georgia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 541 students. The school is part of the Fulton County School District, which is ranked 47th out of 206 districts in Georgia and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of a relatively high-performing district, Jackson Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the Fulton County and Georgia state averages on the Milestones Assessment. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science were significantly lower than the district and state averages, ranging from 25.7% to 51.4% proficient or better. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from 734 out of 1,205 Georgia elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 611 out of 1,238 in 2024-2025, with a 2-3 star rating from SchoolDigger.

One potential factor contributing to the school's lower academic performance may be the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 65.5% to 69.87% in recent years, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students compared to the surrounding schools, such as Hembree Springs Elementary, Dunwoody Springs Elementary, and Ison Springs Elementary, which generally outperform Jackson Elementary School on academic measures. While the school's spending per student has been relatively high, ranging from $12,736 to $13,532 in recent years, the outcomes do not reflect the investment, presenting an opportunity for the school and district to identify and address the root causes of the underperformance.
