My JAGS Experience

What is the Jackson Academy of Global Studies?

"Jackson Academy of Global Studies is an International Studies School within Jackson High School that prepares students to compete and cooperate in a Global Economy"

Joining JAGS has not only helped improve my global competency, but it greatly expanded my knowledge and eagerness to learn. JAGS has left me with so many amazing memories and has helped me grow as a person. I am incredibility grateful for the opportunities that JAGS has given me. Investigating the world, recognizing perspectives, communicating ideas, and taking action are all tools and beliefs that I will continue to implement in my life for years to come!
