Spiritwear Sale

Madison School spirit wear is back for the final time this school year! The SNFLR Swag sale will be open from Monday, February 9th through Wednesday, February 25th. We have added new short-sleeve shirts for spring, along with all the favorites from our fall sale. Check it out HERE.

Delivery is expected by mid-March, just before spring break. If you do not want the items delivered directly to your child’s classroom, please select the "gift" delivery option at checkout.

High Interest Day!

High Interest Day will be on Friday, May 22^nd – get excited! It’s an interactive day where our 3^rd, 4^th, and 5^th grade students rotate through 4 classes of their choosing and have a chance to see how the interests they develop now can turn into careers and hobbies they can pursue later in life. There is a terrific line-up of class offerings, which can be found HERE.

During school the week of February 23^rd, your children will rank their top 8 choices on their iPads (1 being their top choice, and 6-8 being classes they would like if their top 5 choices are filled). As in past years, 5^th graders will get first priority in scheduling, followed by 4^th graders and then 3^rd graders.

We need your help! Please take a moment to review the offerings with your children and encourage them to use High Interest Day as an opportunity to explore and try something new. Also, for 4^th and 5^th graders, it would be wonderful if you could urge them to not repeat a class they’ve taken in previous years. Many thanks in advance for your help and support!

CSCI Survey Opens Tuesday!

The D181 2025-26 CSCI climate survey opened on Tuesday, February 17th. Families will receive a link to the survey by email on 2/17. This annual survey is not only a requirement for all school districts in the state but also an opportunity to share how we're performing as a school district with audiences near and far.

Staff will complete the survey during a staff meeting, and students in grades 4th-8th will complete the survey during the school day. 

Participation from parents, teachers, and students is crucial to ensure we compile a valuable snapshot of D181's school climate. All survey results are anonymous, as responses are reported directly to the National School Climate Center before being made available to the District and public. 

For more information, visit D181.
