August 29, 2022

Dear Parent(s)/Guardian:

Welcome back! Summer break allows us to collectively refresh, refocus, work, and spend quality time with family and friends. It is my hope this letter finds your family safe and sound! For the 2022-2023 school year, we have high expectations for staff and students for learning and a positive learning climate. We maintain quarterly Town Hall meetings, academic, individual/group Counseling, and extracurricular activities serving the needs of your child throughout the year. The following information below is provided for you:

Chrome Books:

Our aim is to have students actively engaged in the learning process. Fees are as follows: $35 User Fee; $25 – Replacement Charger; $235 for replacement device. We accept money orders payable to Madison CUSD 12 or cash only. Sorry, no personal checks.

Athletics/Physicals/Fees:

All student athletes must have an IHSA sanctioned physical. With signed consent forms, SIHF Healthcare and Familia Dental will provide free onsite services September 30. Student athletes must maintain a 2.0 grade point average, and clear through discipline system on a weekly basis.

Fees are as follows: $35 – 1 sport; $70 – 2 or more sports; $85.00 football; $35 Cheer Squad.

Cell Phones

The district’s new Cell Phone Policy remains and will be enforced. Students are allowed to bring phones into the building. Just a reminder, upon entry, cell phones are required to be powered off, placed in lockers for the entire day, and retrieved from lockers at dismissal. To reach your student, you are welcome to call the high school office. We will contact your child, and he/she can return your call from school landline phones. Progressive discipline ranges from In School Suspension to temporary reassignment to Madison School Support Center (MSSC) this year.

Dress Code/Supplies

School uniforms are not required this year. Dress Code and a suggested grade level supply lists are clearly outlined in this packet.

Parents and students, thanks in advance for your cooperation with school guidelines, bus schedules. As always, it is an honor to provide teaching and learning for your child. Questions? Feel free to contact me by email or phone, (618) 877-1712, Extension 6265. Together, we will have an outstanding year of teaching and learning!

Sincerely, Juan Gardner
