About Tucker-Capps Elementary School

Tucker-Capps Elementary School operated at 113 Wellington Drive in Hampton, Virginia, as part of Hampton City Public Schools. In 2021 the Hampton City School Board voted to rename five schools; Tucker-Capps Fundamental Elementary was renamed Mary W. Jackson Fundamental Elementary School, effective for the 2021-2022 school year, in honor of Hampton native and NASA mathematician/aerospace engineer Mary W. Jackson. As a result, all current federal (NCES) and state (Virginia School Quality Profiles) records for this building are filed under the Mary W. Jackson name, though it retains the same NCES ID (510180000761), address, and phone number.

The school is a suburban PK-5 'fundamental' elementary school serving roughly 343 students. Its mascot is the Rockets and its colors are green and white, and its motto is 'Continuing the Tradition of Excellence.' It sits in the Wellington area of northern Hampton, in the Hampton Roads region of southeastern Virginia.
