Summary

Jackson Elementary School is a public elementary school in Medford, Oregon, serving 309 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Medford School District 549C, which is ranked 67 out of 140 school districts in the state.

Unfortunately, Jackson Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to other schools in the district and state. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are significantly lower than the district and state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 12.2% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to the district's 35.1% and the state's 41.2%. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 33.1% to 38.1% over the past few years.

In contrast, nearby schools like Hoover Elementary and Kennedy Elementary generally outperform Jackson Elementary in academic metrics, with higher proficiency rates in core subjects. Hoover Elementary, in particular, stands out as a high-performing school, ranking in the top 50 elementary schools in Oregon. While Jackson Elementary has a relatively high per-student spending and a lower student-teacher ratio, these factors do not seem to translate into improved academic outcomes for the school. Addressing the underlying socioeconomic and attendance challenges may be crucial in improving the school's performance.
