CSCI Survey Closes Soon!

The D181 2025-26 CSCI climate survey is now open! Please complete the survey by Friday, February 27th. Please click HERE to take Madison's CSCI survey! 

Our goal is 40% parent participation! 

Participation from parents, teachers, and students is crucial to ensure we compile a valuable snapshot of Madison School's climate. All survey results are anonymous, as responses are reported directly to the National School Climate Center before being made available to District 181 and the public.

Draw & Paint for Life

Draw & Paint for Life by Maureen Claffy is a screen-free STEAM program. This analog art program supports higher levels of mathematical reasoning by teaching an understanding of geometric shapes in space. It also supports emotional regulation and builds self-confidence and communication skills. The program adapts to the changing needs of young artist and is completely new every weekend. We turn geometric shapes into objects to capture children's imaginations while imparting technical drawing skills, using high-quality art supplies.

Session 1: Circle > Sphere, Oval > Cylinder
Session 2: Square > Cube, Rectangle > Rhomboid
Session 3: Ribbon, Triangle > Pyramid

All supplies are provided for classroom use and students receive a custom-printed ArtCard with the week's lesson. All teachers are personally selected by Maureen and fully trained in her method.

Classes kick-off on March 5th on Tuesdays from 3:05-4:15pm (session runs 10 weeks). An instructor will walk the children outside and make sure everyone is safely picked up for their return home. Sibling discount available. Sign up HERE.
