Summary

Jackson Elementary is a K–5 school with 683 students in Shakopee, Minnesota, part of the Shakopee Public School District and the largest enrollment among the nearby Shakopee elementaries in this comparison.

In 2025–2026, Jackson Elementary ranked 354 of 869 Minnesota schools (59th percentile, 3 stars). That is a decline from its earlier profile: from 2015–16 through 2022–23 it was generally a 4-star school in the 71st–79th percentile, then slipped to 67th, 63rd, and 59th in the three most recent years. Proficiency is still above district and state in reading (53.9%) and science (33.0%), but math (46.9%) sits only 2 points above the state average. Math has fallen from 70.07% in 2022–23 — a 23-point drop — while reading fell about 8 points and science about 21 points. Third grade math is the clearest weak spot at 38.0%, below district (47.2%) and state (57.9%). By contrast, 4th and 5th grade math, 4th and 5th grade reading, and 5th grade science are above both district and state.

Among Shakopee peers, Jackson's science proficiency is the highest in the group, its reading second to Eagle Creek Elementary School, and its math third — ahead of Sweeney Elementary but behind Eagle Creek and Sun Path Elementary. Its 59th-percentile rank is just behind Eagle Creek (61) and ahead of Sun Path (57) and Sweeney (48). Compared with Eastern Carver County Public School schools such as Jonathan Elementary (88th percentile) and La Academia (78th), Jackson trails in math and reading, though its science result is close to Jonathan's. Jackson's free/reduced lunch rate (34.26%) is lower than same-district peers but higher than those two schools. Subgroup effectiveness declined in 2025–2026: statewide percentile ranks for English Language Learner students fell to 28, low-income students to 32, and special education students to 48.
