Madison Family,
We are looking forward to seeing your students tomorrow, Wednesday, January 28th, at school.
Make sure that your student brings the homework packet they were given on Friday.
Stay safe
Madison Family
Based on the current road conditions and possible re-freezing tonight, the Madison School District will be doing virtual learning on Tuesday, January 27th.
Students should complete the work sent home by their teachers and bring the work back to school when we return to session.
Stay safe.
Due to the amount of snow and forecast for windchills to be -20 or below in the morning, we will be taking a virtual learning day tomorrow, Monday.
Students should complete the work packet sent home by their teacher on Friday. The work should be returned when we return to school.
Stay safe and warm.
As you are all aware, we have the potential for heavy snow Sunday into Monday which may impact our ability to transport students safely to and from school.
In preparation for any interruption to school, staff have prepared work packets with up to 2 days of work for students. These packets will be sent home with students by Friday.
Students are expected to complete any assigned work and return it to their teachers when we return to school.
We have no guarantees on what the weather will do so we want to be prepared in the event school will be canceled.
Stay safe.
6th - Valeri Pantoja Diaz
7th - Isabella Suarez
8th - Jasper Mora
