Madison has a graduate vision for all students – that they will not only graduate, but graduate with the skills and abilities to be successful in college, career and community.

We want our students to master academic content, build creativity, confidence and cultural competence, gain a strong sense of self and interpersonal skills and have a growth mindset to help them continually build the skills and abilities to be successful. This vision for Madison’s graduates was developed with input from more than 2500 staff, students and community members.

And it is through our students that this vision comes to life. Our graduates display the diversity of strengths, interests, skills and bright futures that exist for every child in MMSD. In each of our students, we see them for who they are and who they are becoming. You’ll see their stories highlighted as part of this report.
