Prep students are encouraged to willingly and voluntarily respond to the needs of their community by giving of their time, energy, and talents towards helping individuals, groups, and/or the environment, without expecting anything in return.

World Languages

The primary goal of the World Language Department at Jackson Prep is to provide a strong college preparatory curriculum in Spanish, French, and Latin. Greek and Mandarin Chinese may be taken as additional language electives, but do not fulfill the language requirement. Each course teaches communication in the language, exposure to the cultures in which the language is spoken, connections with other languages and disciplines, comparisons to the students’ native language and culture, and use of their knowledge in wider communities of language and culture.
