Summary

Jackson Elementary School is a PK–5 school in the Norman area with 434 students. Its 2025–26 results show a mixed academic picture: Mathematics was slightly above the state, while English Language Arts and Science were below both the state and district. The clearest concern is Science: 18% of students were proficient, 12 points below the state and 21 points below the district, and the lowest score among eight nearby PK–5 schools.

Mathematics is the school’s strongest subject compared with state results: 27% were proficient, 2 points above the state, though 3 points below the district. In comparison with nearby PK–5 schools, Jackson was 13 points below their average in Math and 15 points below their average in ELA; it tied for the lowest ELA score. Fourth-grade ELA and fifth-grade Math stand out as grade-level challenges: 14% were proficient in fourth-grade ELA and 18% in fifth-grade Math, both below state and district results. Chronic absenteeism is another concern: the 2025–26 rate was 20%, compared with 16% statewide and 12% in the district; only two of 11 nearby schools had higher rates.

Results have moved in different directions: from 2024–25 to 2025–26, Math rose 4 points to 27%, while ELA fell 1 point to 19% and Science fell 5 points to 18%. Absenteeism has improved substantially from its 45% peak in 2021–22, declining 25 points, but remains above state and district rates. SchoolDigger ranks Jackson 409th of 626 schools, at the 35th percentile with 2 stars; among Jackson and 10 nearby schools, it ranks seventh. Its overall percentile rose from 4 in 2017–18 to 35 in 2025–26. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves White students is notably lower: the group is at the 14th percentile, compared with 35th overall, down from 46 in 2020–21. In 2024–25, 71% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; the student-teacher ratio was 13.2, slightly below the nearby-school average of 13.4.
