Henry M. Jackson High School is a public high school in Mill Creek, Washington. Construction of the school was completed in 1994 by the Everett School District, and is named after the late U.S. Senator from Washington State Henry M. Jackson, an Everett, Washington native. Other high schools in the Everett School District are Cascade High School, Everett High School, and Sequoia Alternative School.

Intermediate schools that feed into Jackson are Heatherwood Middle School, located adjacent to the high school, and Gateway Middle School, located in the Silver Firs area northeast of Mill Creek.

In 2002 seven students were accused of paddling up to 30 freshmen as part of an initiation rite were suspended from school.
