The Madison Jr. High School Counseling Staff will be opening our ClassChoice program -- the program that allows students to create/edit their own class schedule -- from Saturday, November 5th at 9:00 am, until Friday, November 11th at 2:00 pm, to allow students to make any necessary changes for their 2nd or 3rd Trimester schedules. Please be advised that no changes to 2nd Trimester schedules will be allowed after Friday, November 11th at 2:00 pm.
If a student makes a change to their schedule using ClassChoice, it will not be reflected in PowerSchool until sometime during the week of November 14th-18th. We advise students who need to make any changes to their schedules to do so earlier in the week so if they have technical difficulties, they can reach out to the counseling office prior to November 11th.

***The route starts in front of the Madison Education Center (former Jr. High 60 West Main), goes down Main street and turns down 3rd East (west side of smith park)


Madison School District is excited to announce the district wide implementation of a new anonymous tip line to report bullying, violence, drugs or harm. The program is called SEE, TELL, NOW!
There are THREE ways to make a report. Go to www.seetellnow.org to explore and become familiar with them all!
When you SEE something, TELL someone, NOW!
SEE
When you are in and around your school, simply be aware of your surroundings. You may notice something that doesn’t seem right, looks odd or is simply out of the ordinary.
TELL
Tell someone at your school or call the police – but tell someone. We want to know what’s happening at your school, and your observations are important
NOW
Do it NOW. Don’t wait, don’t hesitate. If something looks out of place to you, it likely is. When it comes to the safety of our children, it’s always a better idea to be safe rather than sorry.


Don't miss this fundraising opportunity for our Bobcat Cheerleaders!
We know many look forward to this each year for their little ones! Be sure to share and/or tag any who may be interested! #wearemadison
