Jackson County

Located at 711 School Drive in Gainesboro, Tennessee, the Jackson County School District serves as the cornerstone of public education for its local community. Operating as an active, traditional public school system, the district manages four operational schools that deliver comprehensive learning programs ranging from pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade. Set in a remote rural environment within the greater Cookeville metropolitan area, this non-charter district offers a complete primary and secondary educational pathway designed to nurture children from early childhood through high school graduation.

For the 2024–2025 school year, the district educates a total student body of 1,389 pupils, maintaining a balanced student community comprised of 709 male and 680 female learners. The student population spans all grade levels, including 74 pre-kindergarten students and a graduating class of 84 high school seniors, with a demographic makeup that includes White, Hispanic, multiracial, American Indian, Black, and Asian students. While full-time equivalent staffing figures were not formally recorded in the current federal dataset, the district remains dedicated to serving its student body across all four school sites.
