2025-2026 SCHEDULING

Madison High Schools offers students the opportunity to take classes through different pathways. Please see below to learn more about outside course options and available Dual Enrollment through MHS.  

MHS offers Virtual Learning High School (VHS) online courses for our students. Often students may take a class through VHS if they are interested in a course that we do not offer or if there is a conflict with courses in their schedule. If you are interested in learning more, please discuss with your school counselor during your scheduling meeting.

Each offer something unique that can be fitting to students at MHS. Often times this is offered for upperclassmen, pending a students schedule and any scheduling restraints. Cost, grading scale, and syllabi vary for each school and program.

The best time to learn more about these offerings and discuss if it could be a fit for you is during your scheduling conference with your counselor. Being each student has a personal academic track, more details can be discussed with your counselor incorporating your post high school goals.
