Dear Amazing Families of Madison Park,
Dear Amazing Families of Madison Park,
As we end the final week of September, it’s a good time to reflect and see all the great work, strengths, and generosity our students, teachers, staff and families bring to Park. Together we can continue to bring out the best in our students. It is so hard to believe we have one week left in the first quarter. Please try your best to help our children to turn in any classwork and/or homework needed as we work towards the final stretch of the grading period.
Please mark your calendars as parent-teacher conferences are rapidly approaching. The conference schedule is set for Wednesday, October 23th through Friday, October 25th.
Also, help support our school spirit by encouraging our students to demonstrate pride in our school by wearing “Blue and Gold” every Friday!
Best regards,
Priscilla Gossett - Principal
Rebecca Galindo - Assistant Principal

Attendance Awareness Month
September is Attendance Awareness Month. Being in class every day is super important to your child’s success in school. Missing too many days can make it hard to keep up with learning and can even affect future opportunities. Let’s work together to make sure your child is here on time and read to learn every day!
Arriving to School on Time:
Arriving at school on time is important. School begins at 8:25am and ends at 3:40pm. Students should arrive no earlier than 8:10am. Students who are late to school must be signed in by their parents/guardians in the main office. Student who have better attendance have better grades and better success at school.
