Summary

Andrew Jackson Elementary School serves 566 students in pre-kindergarten through fifth grade in Jackson, Tennessee, as part of the Jackson-Madison County Schools district. The school currently ranks in the 5th percentile among Tennessee elementary schools with a zero-star rating for the 2025–26 school year, placing it among the state's most challenged elementary schools. Academically, proficiency rates lag far behind district and state averages across every subject: just 11.4% of students are proficient in math, 14.6% in English Language Arts, and 21.7% in science, compared to state averages of 43%, 40.6%, and 46.9% respectively.

Chronic absenteeism is one of the school's most urgent challenges. In 2024–25, 40.6% of students were chronically absent — more than double the state rate of 18.3% and well above the district's 28.2%. The contrast with nearby schools shows what is possible. Community Montessori School, just 1.77 miles away in the same district, ranks in the 70th percentile with 55.9% ELA proficiency and only 6.8% chronic absenteeism. Pope School also outperforms Andrew Jackson significantly, ranking in the 41st percentile with a 9.5% absenteeism rate.

Andrew Jackson Elementary School has not always been at the bottom. In 2014–15, it ranked in the 34th percentile with a two-star rating before a long decline that briefly improved to the 12th percentile in 2023–24, then fell again. A particular trouble spot is 4th grade math, where only 5.4% of students are proficient, and absenteeism has worsened sharply since 2021–22. Per-student spending has risen about 16% to roughly $12,093, yet achievement has not followed — a sign that focusing on attendance and early literacy and math instruction, rather than funding alone, is the most promising path forward. There are bright spots: special education students have shown recent improvement, reaching the 27th percentile, which offers a foundation to build on.
