Jackson school was located north of the Carterville Cemetery on Hawthorne Road. The ground
for the school was donated by the Jackson family. The building consisted of one room. In 1912
the school was moved east to the Lakeside community and was renamed "Lakeside School."
Another room was added at this time.
Many thanks to Phyllis Close and Mary Lewis for providing information on the Jackson School.
