Wear red and gray on Friday!

We are monitoring the weather for this weekend and preparing for a possible school closure if the weather forecast occurs as predicted. In the case of an emergency or school closing, the Madison County School District will send an automated message using Infinite Campus Shoutpoint, and we will share information on the district and school websites and Facebook pages. During a school closure, the Madison County School System may designate the day as an Independent Learning Day. All schools are sharing more information with parents this week. You can also find detailed school closing information, including which radio and news stations we notify, by visiting our website at www.madison.k12.ga.us and using the Quick Link for “School Closing Information.”

Congratulations to our Young Georgia Authors winners! Their stories will compete for the top spot in each grade level for the county. Good luck, authors!

Mrs. Peeples' class felt their hearts grow three sizes today!

Reminder: Friday is an early release day (12:30) and there is no ASP!

Students in Mrs. Peeples' and Mrs. Paula's class were hard to find in their camouflage, but we think their reindeer antlers made them a little easier to see!
