James Madison School #10 loves our students, and we want to see their faces daily.

School #10 is having an issue with high amounts of students absences. Students should only be absent if they have a fever, they are vomiting, or if doctor states they need too.

If you are unsure if your child should attend school that day, please call the nurse, Mrs. Silva @ 862-306-7190 x1106


Attendance for School Matters:

  • Trips should not be planned during the school year!
    • Schedule trips around our days off using our district calendar. Thank you!

During the month of January, we are focusing on Growth Mindset! This is the belief that we will all develop through effort, learning and persistence. We are starting each day off with positive affirmations during morning announcements. Positive affirmations are statements that are used to encourage positivity and challenge negative thoughts. They can help our students boost their confidence, self-esteem and motivation and help reduce stress! During SEL time, students will be working on yeti themed crafts and activities that focus on "the power of yet". Instead of saying "I can't do this", our students will practice saying "I can't do this YET!"

Feel free to contact me at any time throughout the year: dfaga@gboe.org

Important Information

We are working on improving our overall attendance at James Madison School. Please avoid taking vacations during the school year. If you want to travel, plan around the days/weeks we have off. Each day your child is not here, they are losing academic learning. Make-up work is not the same as in school learning. We are looking forward to working together to give every child a great education.
