Summary

Andrew Jackson Elementary School is a public magnet elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Jackson, Tennessee, with an enrollment of 481 students. The school is part of the Madison County school district, which is ranked 126 out of 139 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Andrew Jackson Elementary consistently performs well below the state and county averages on standardized tests, with only 13.3% of students proficient or better in math compared to 42.2% statewide and 26.8% in the Madison County district. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.9% to 32.5% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state and county averages. Additionally, the school ranks in the bottom 50% of Tennessee elementary schools for African American, Hispanic, and Special Education students, as well as low-income students.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Madison County district, such as Rose Hill School, Thelma Barker Elementary, and Community Montessori School, generally outperform Andrew Jackson Elementary on academic measures and have lower chronic absenteeism rates. This suggests that the challenges faced by Andrew Jackson Elementary are not necessarily shared by all schools in the district. Despite spending between $10,430 and $11,661 per student, which is on par with the district and state averages, the school's struggles may be influenced by a combination of factors, such as the socioeconomic status of the student population, teacher quality and turnover, and the effectiveness of the school's instructional practices and support systems.
