Middle School

Liza Jackson maintains the high academic expectations, which have proven successful since we opened in 2001. LJPS has been an A+ school each year and is accredited by Cognia.

Our students benefit from a rigorous academic program based on both state and national academic standards. Students are exposed to courses including Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, English Language Arts and Spanish on a daily basis.  They are also provided opportunities to explore additional courses which include Band, Art, Drama, Technology, Digital Arts, and Physical Education to create a richer learning experience.  High school credit courses are offered in Algebra 1 Honors, Geometry Honors, and Spanish based on student achievement and teacher recommendation.

The small-school atmosphere and developmentally-appropriate school environment nurture our students while at the same time preparing them for success in middle and high school. Expectations for conduct and behavior ensure that all students learn in an orderly, secure, and welcoming environment.

LJPS maximizes student learning and academic achievement by concentrating all of its resources on individual student improvement.  Grade-level teachers plan together daily in order to make effective cross-curricular connections.  Extensive, frequent data analysis by the teachers drives the curriculum content each year and allow teachers to continually adjust instruction to meet both group and individual student needs. 

LJPS embraces high academic standards for all students, a challenging curriculum with real-world applications, and a culture of continuous improvement.  LJPS faculty, staff, students, and families truly believe that “We are a caring community of learners dedicated to making the world a better place through academic preparation, good manners, common sense, and 100% effort”.
