Vision: Guided by our core values of respect, responsibility, persistence, and achievement; the Andrew Jackson Middle School community is committed to our mission of providing all students with the tools to become lifelong learners and productive members of a global society. This is accomplished through collaboration among faculty and staff members, students, families, and the community working together to provide the necessary resources and support to produce a safe, supportive, and positive educational environment and maintaining the highest standards of academic and social excellence. Our school provides a plethora of family-oriented and community activities such as Math and Science Night, Speech Night, Career Day, Lemonade Day, and annual food and blood drives. AJMS has maintained a “B” School Performance Score for the past three years. Our ELA standardized assessment scores have continuously increased and are currently the highest of the district middle schools. AJMS offers a fully inclusive program for students with disabilities. AJMS incorporates team-teaching to ensure that all students receive a quality education.
