Every Student Matters. Every Moment Counts.

"Celebrating 50 Years of Excellence in Education"

Welcome Back to School for the 2025-2026 School Year

Welcome Back to School! The first day for students is Friday, August 15th.  School hours are 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Doors open for student drop off after 7:30 AM. Breakfast is available in the morning and served in the classrooms during Advisory/First Period. Both breakfast and lunch are served at no cost to our students. The Student/Parent Handbook  will be published on Schoology for parents and students by August 1st. 

Kanawha County Schools launched new websites for schools. The updated site for our school can be found here: Andrew Jackson Middle School

Please regularly check Schoology beginning mid July through opening of school for additional detailed back to school information.

On this day, we celebrate a special occasion – the 50th anniversary of our school. When Andrew Jackson Junior High opened on August 30, 1971, 675 students walked in the door for the first time with a red carpet welcome. The cost of the new school was $1.7 million dollars. Here we are now, 50 years later remembering our history and looking forward to our school’s future. What makes a school? Is it the classrooms, the lunchroom, the bricks and blocks? No, it’s the students, teachers, staff, and community who are the culture of the school. We say thank you to our alumni, whose legacy established many of our AJ traditions, and for those who have graduated and gone on to help build our community and our world. Now we, the student body, staff, and community are building the future of Andrew Jackson Middle School and setting the path for the next 50 years.
