Jackson Elementary School earns prestigious recognition
Jackson Elementary School in El Dorado Hills has achieved the prestigious recognition of being named a California Honor Roll School by the Educational Results Partnership (ERP). This notable accolade is part of ERP’s annual listing of top-performing schools and districts across the state, highlighting those that have excelled in closing achievement gaps and fostering educational excellence among students.
Now in its ninth year, the ERP’s Honor Roll acknowledges schools, districts and charter schools that demonstrate outstanding performance in providing students with the essential skills required in today’s workforce. This year, Jackson Elementary School is among the 1,430 schools that have been recognized, representing approximately 17% of all eligible institutions in California.
“We are thrilled to have Jackson Elementary School recognized on the California Honor Roll,” said Rescue Union School District Superintendent Jim Shoemake. “This acknowledgment reflects our commitment to academic excellence.”
The California Honor Roll stands out as a unique program, as it is the only school recognition initiative backed by prominent business leaders and based solely on objective achievement data. This approach ensures a fair and transparent assessment, focused entirely on real outcomes in student performance, particularly in critical areas such as reading, writing and math.
Jackson Elementary School’s inclusion in this esteemed list illuminates the school’s role in shaping students who are well-prepared for future challenges.
“This honor serves as a testament to the hard work of the faculty and the bright potential of our students,” Principal Michele Williams said.
