This school consistently outperforms the district and state averages on academic assessments, particularly in mathematics, where its 5th-grade proficiency rate of 75.7% significantly exceeds the county (44%) and state (47.1%) averages.

Jacksboro Elementary's strengths include the high performance of its low socioeconomic status and special education students, who rank in the top 20% and 30% of Tennessee elementary schools, respectively.
