IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL VISITORS
As part of our new safety features, visitors will now have to submit a government issued ID at the front desk. All visitors must enter via the FRONT office. No visitors will be allowed access to the instructional spaces via the attendance entrance. The ID will be run through an online search system (Raptor) which will check for any red flags (outstanding warrants, criminal convictions, etc.). Once you are cleared through the system, it will print a visitor badge which must be displayed at all times while you are on campus. Thank you for your cooperation.
*PLEASE NOTE: If you are only on campus to check a student in or out, you will report to the security vestibule by the attendance office, which is at the back of the school by the big buck.

Sign Up to Round Up!
The Round Up Program was started by The Schools Foundation and Huntsville Utilities to support local public school systems. The Schools Foundation is a funding partner of Madison County Schools. The more residential and commercial locations that round up, the more funding we can receive. Estimates show that if just half of the residential Huntsville Utilities users rounded up, it would generate approximately $500,000 to support our schools! By rounding up your utility bill to the nearest dollar each month, you help invest in the future of our students!
You can easily sign up to round up online:
http://www.hsvutil.org/myhsvu…/checkbill/roundup/signup.html
It might be a penny, it might be 25 cents, it might be 99 cents, but it will be no more than $11.88 a year. It takes less than 1 minute to fill out.
Thank you for supporting one of our community partners! Go Bucks!
