MADISON ELEMENTARY MINUTES
ONE TEAM, ONE DREAM - EVERY CHILD SUCCEEDS!
Welcome to a new week! August 14-18
We had a wonderful start to our 2017-2018 school year last week. Everyone seemed to be settling into the new year and new routines.
Please be sure to review your child's classroom newsletter each week. The newsletter from your child's teacher will keep you updated as to what standards will be taught during a given week. We welcome your reinforcement at home.
We look forward to seeing all of our parents at our upcoming Curriculum Nights, beginning Monday evening. This will be a time for teachers to share what is expected of your child during the current school year as well as ways we can partner to ensure this is a productive year for all.
Thank you for your continued support.

car line
MORNING CAR LINE
- When your car is stopped and parallel with the covered sidewalk, your child can unload.
- Please have your child exit on the left-hand side of the vehicle so he/she can exit onto the covered sidewalk. This prevents children from walking between cars.
- Please have personal belongings gathered and ready for your child to grab as he/she exits the car.
- As soon as your child has safely exited your vehicle and the car in front of you has pulled forward, please pull forward.
- The morning Car Line will begin ending at 7:35. After 7:35, you are asked to park and walk your child to the front door.
AFTERNOON CAR LINE
- Please have your 2017-2018 car line tag visible for Mrs. Cook to record your child's last name and grade.
- The first 5 cars will load each time we load cars in order to load children safely and quickly.
- As soon as your child has loaded your car safely, please pull forward.
