Madison Middle School is committed to preparing students for life by engaging them in experiences that will help cultivate their academic, social, and emotional development. All students will have four core (Math, English/Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies), and three elective classes daily. Our electives are Spanish, Family Consumer Science/Culinary, Art, Band, AVID-College and Career Readiness, Orchestra, and Reading. This upcoming school year (2022-2023), we are excited about the return of our academic/social clubs, which will promote student exploration and enrichment. In addition, students have opportunities to participate in one of our extracurricular sports (if eligible). Extracurricular sports: Girls & Boys Basketball, Girls & Boys Volleyball, Girls & Boys Track & Field, Girls & Boys Soccer, and Girls & Boys Flag Football.

At Madison, we have high expectations for all of our students and believe our students will succeed with the support of our faculty, staff, students, and community.
