Madison Middle School

Respect | Responsibility | Relationships
May 18 - May 22
Hello Mustang Families!
Madison is proud to be a leader in inclusion, ensuring that all students feel welcomed, supported, and connected to the culture of our campus. During the first semester, we held our 3rd annual Unified Basketball Game, and last Thursday, we hosted our Unified Track Meet. Students participated in races and other track events, and the event concluded with an Olympic-style awards ceremony celebrating their efforts and accomplishments.
We are now just 13 days away from summer vacation! While it is natural for students to feel restless and begin looking ahead to break, learning and assignments are still taking place. Thank you for encouraging your students to stay focused, make good choices, and finish the year strong.
Please take a moment to review the rest of the newsletter for upcoming campus and community events. Have a great week!

Important Update: 8th Grade Knott’s Berry Farm Field Trip Date Change
Dear 8th Grade Families,
We are writing to inform you of an important change regarding our upcoming 8th grade field trip to Knott’s Berry Farm. Due to a current bus driver shortage, we need to adjust the date of the trip. The trip was originally scheduled for Thursday, May 21st; however, we have now secured transportation for Wednesday, June 3rd.
We understand that schedule changes can be inconvenient, and we appreciate your flexibility and understanding as we work to ensure that our students are still able to participate in this special end-of-year experience. All other details regarding the trip will remain the same. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact our office.
