A pile of rubble to be hauled away is all that's left of the old Jackson Elementary School, Bettendorf, this afternoon (8/15).

Jackson School opened for the 1952-53 school year with kindergarten, first, second and third grade classes. It became a kindergarten through 5th grade school in 1954. Jackson closed in 1985 when Paul Norton Elementary opened in north Bettendorf. The building was remodeled and has served as the district's administrative office since 1986.
