About Our School
Welcome to Jackson STEM Dual Language Magnet Academy, a unique and nurturing elementary school community that provides an innovative approach to teaching and learning, infusing our STEAM curriculum across disciplines to inspire a love of learning in our students! Our community benefits from an upper tier, cross-curricular academic program emphasizing science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM). Jackson Magnet has developed a vibrant and ever-unfolding science program enhanced by upgrades in technology, a science lab, a garden program with connections to life science, nutrition, and cooking, and full-time science/engineering and music teachers. We offer varied opportunities for our students and challenge them to think critically and make deeper interdisciplinary connections.
The 21st century has become a highly technological and global era, one where marketable advantages include an education rich in the STEAM disciplines and the ability to speak multiple languages. Therefore, as an option for parents, Jackson is exceedingly proud of its Spanish/English dual language immersion program (SDLIP), serving both Spanish- and English-dominant students with the goal of nurturing bilingualism, bi-literacy, bi-culturalism, and bi-cognitive thinking. When a STEAM-based curriculum is enhanced with early instruction in a foreign language, students will be singularly prepared for success in an unforeseeable future.
