Students in 7th grade Spanish had the opportunity to go to an Authentic Hispanic Flamenco Ballet Performance. Students were taught a bit about the dances that they were going to see at the performance before going to the show. At the show, students saw the dances that they learned in class performed live by Hispanic dancers. Students heard Spanish music and observed traditional Spanish dance and costumes. They also had the opportunity to go up on stage and learn a Spanish dance by the professionals! Lots of fun was had by all and it was a great experience for everyone!
Students in STEM have been working on designing and creating various projects throughout the month of November. Keep up the great work!
Students have been enjoying the game of Spike Ball in their Physical Education Classes.

In Madison, we utilize a 1:1 Chromebook model where all students (grades 6-12) receive a district owned Chromebook to utilize during the school day and at home. While there is no cost for the use of the Chromebook, it is important that Chromebooks be maintained and handled in a responsible way. As we continue to move through the school year, we wanted to utilize this time as a reminder for our students and families about the importance of handling Chromebooks with care to prevent damage to the device. The district has expectations and protocols that are listed on the district website that we continue to follow at the building level.
We would like to highlight the specific section regarding lost and damaged chromebooks as a reminder to all parents and guardians:
In the event a Chromebook, case, or charger is lost or damaged beyond repair and deemed to be intentional, excessive, neglectful or student misuse, parents/guardians are responsible for paying the cost of replacement equipment.
Costs:
Chromebook (damaged beyond repair) - $365.00
Broken Screen - $90.00
Broken Keyboard - $70.00
Charger - $47.00
Case - $20.00
Other - Will be quoted by the Tech Department
Note: Final assessment of damage and fines are determined by the Technology Department.
Students are also responsible for the care of any loaners they use. Damage to loaners is subject to the same rules as permanently assigned Chromebooks.
In case of theft, parents/guardians are required to file a formal police report with the Madison Police Department.
Below are the direct links from the district website that pertains to Chromebook care and protocols followed for lost/damaged Chromebooks.
