This is our WHY. These little faces are the reason behind every meeting, every plan, every late night, and every dream for Jackson Museum School. 💚

As members of our Founding Families, these students represent more than the beginning of a school…they represent the beginning of a legacy!

We are honored to help create a place where children can explore, engage, grow, and feel empowered from the very first day they walk through our doors.

The countdown to Fall 2026 feels even more exciting when we see the future sitting right in front of us. ✨

Today, we honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

Their courage, selflessness, and dedication to protecting the freedoms we enjoy will never be forgotten. As we spend time with family and loved ones this Memorial Day, we pause in gratitude for those who gave everything for our nation.

From all of us at Gene Little Jackson Museum School, we remember and honor our fallen heroes today and always. 🇺🇸

Curiosity is where learning begins 🔎

At Jackson Museum School, we encourage students to ask questions, explore boldly, and discover the world around them.

We’re excited to officially begin site cleanup at the future home of Jackson Museum School! This is the start of an incredible transformation, and we’re so thankful for everyone who believes in the dream with us.

We will open in Fall 2026 with Phase 1, using modular classrooms on the property while restoration and renovation continue on the primary building. Phase 2 will bring us into our “forever home” inside the fully restored building in Fall 2027.

Our Founding Families have believed in this vision from the very beginning, and we are honored to give them first rights and priority access to the full building as this dream becomes reality.

Big things are happening — and this is only the beginning. 💛

When students explore, imagine, and feel like they belong – amazing things happen. Here are 5 reasons why families are choosing Jackson Museum School for grades K-2.

These values are the foundation of the JMS experience and the heart of the environment we are building for our students and families 💚
