Technology

Students need the core foundation of knowledge as well as skills that will prepare them for 21st Century citizenship. Jackson Academy equips students for tomorrow—through forward-thinking learning—today.

These skills include creativity, critical thinking, problem solving, communication, and collaboration. While these skills are not new, they are in ever-increasing demand in a world that is more digital and more globally connected. Technology has evolved into a tool for fostering these 21st century skills.
