Two Enrollment Paths. One Jackson Day Community.
Jackson Day School, a Kindergarten–12th Grade college preparatory school, offers two enrollment options for families. Families must complete a lottery application for the program they wish their student to attend.
Traditional In-Person or Remote Hybrid Learning?
The primary difference is where students learn and how their school day is structured. Traditional in-person students attend a Jackson Day School campus daily for face-to-face instruction. Students in the Horizons Program learn remotely through a combination of online instruction and offline assignments and activities.
Horizons students may also participate in weekly on-campus days for check-ins, academic support, enrichment, and socialization. On-campus days are encouraged but not required.
