Greetings Madison District Families,
As we embark upon the second half of the 2023-2024 school year, I would like to emphasize the crucial importance of ensuring your child's DAILY attendance. Every day in school presents a valuable opportunity for learning, and when a student is absent, they miss out on essential educational experiences. According to Attendance Works (attendanceworks.org):
"Missing 10 percent of the school, or about 18 days in most school districts, negatively affects a student’s academic performance. When students improve their attendance rates, they enhance their academic prospects and increase their chances for graduating."
Let's work together to empower our students by ensuring they are punctual and present every day.
Thank you for your continued support in fostering a positive and enriching learning environment.
Patricia Perry, EdS
PROUD Superintendent of Madison District Public Schools
