Madison Family, Tomorrow, Tuesday February 16th, will be a regular remote learning day. Due to the expected hazardous weather conditions teaching staff will be working remotely and there will be no food service. We anticipate returning to regular operation on Wednesday, February 17th. If this changes we will keep you informed. Take care and stay safe.

Madison Jr High School students will soon receive a supply bag from their school. Principal, teachers, and staff filled 150 bags of school supplies. Included in each bag was a dry erase board, dry erase marker, pencils, glue sticks, crayons, a ruler, and a pair of scissors. Our hope is that with these supply bags students will have the items they need at home to do more hands-on activities. Please enjoy the photographs below of the assembling of the supply bags.
