Martin Luther King Jr.’s Legacy Honored Across Campus
In preparation for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, students in each of Jackson Academy's divisions learned from the remarkable Civil Rights leader's life last Friday, which fell on King's actual birth date. King's passion to achieve equality through nonviolent protest significantly furthered the cause of justice for minorities, spearheading much of the work to desegregate American life and culture in the 50s and 60s. Through age-appropriate activities, JA teachers encouraged their students to use the long weekend to contemplate the foundation that King laid and how they will contribute to a world of justice and equality for everyone. In this article, we feature a single project from each academic division.

Dual Enrollment Courses Give Students Confidence Boost for College
When current JA seniors head off to college next fall, many of them will do so with several hours of college credit already complete. In 2019, Jackson Academy signed a dual enrollment agreement with Belhaven University, allowing JA students who meet Belhaven's admission requirements to take classes that earn college and high school credit simultaneously. The credits earned through Belhaven transfer to other accredited colleges and universities.
