Jackson Academy is a wonderful private school located in Jackson, MS. Its mission is, " Within our nurturing and spiritual community, Jackson Academy inspires and equips each student to lead a life of purpose and significance." JA is well known for its variety of sports, arts, and very modern facilities.

Education is pretty average. Teachers are nice and helpful. Many extracurricular activities you can get involved in.

Also, the food could be improved, along with the drink and snack machines as they don't work often.
