PTO Co Presidents’ Message
Welcome Spring…with a random snow shower!
With spring comes the SCIENCE FAIR!!! The PTO is proud to
sponsor this annual event yet again this year! We want to thank
Colleen Taddeo and Sarah Smith for organizing the event!
Also, a huge thank you to all of the students for their hard work
and participation which makes the Science Fair a huge success
year after year. The Jaguar Jungle doors open on 3/22 at
6:30pm, so come and see what our little scientists are up to.
Even if your child is not participating, it’s a great opportunity
to support their fellow classmates.
The tentative budget will be discussed at the Board of Ed
meeting tomorrow, Tuesday 3/22 at 7:30pm in the MHS Media
Center. All Madison residents are encouraged to attend these
meetings. The agenda for the meeting can be found online.
There will be a Community Forum on Special Education
hosted by Dr. Rossi and our new Director of Special Services,
Mr. Andrew Brandon this Wednesday, 3/23 at 7pm in the MHS
Media Center.
There is a meeting of Madison Music & Arts on 3/23 at
7:30pm in the MHS Band Room.
We wish all of those celebrating a Happy Easter!
Thank you,
Jaime Conroy and Jenn Bruns
