A letter from the Principal:

Dear Madison Families,

I am so fortunate that my educational career brought me to Madison. Prior to serving as principal at Madison, I was an assistant principal, instructional coach and classroom teacher. All of these prior experiences have helped me to understand the importance of building strong relationships when working with children.

I am honored to be working at such an amazing and welcoming school. Madison has a phenomenal group of educators, families, and community members who go above and beyond each day to support all of our students at Madison.

At Madison we understand that we are for the children and will always make decisions based on what is best for kids. Our goal is to meet children where they are and help them to grow. We believe in the importance of supporting each and every child’s academic, social, and emotional needs.

As always, I look forward to working with you to support the children at Madison. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions and concerns.

Kindly,

Barb Shanahan
