My husband attended Madison ('85-'89) and now our 2 sons attend Madison. It is a great school and we have had positive experiences. Mrs. Eatherly is a wonderful principal. She is friendly but most importantly student centered and always concerned for their well being and safety. The staff is warm and friendly. The teachers are amazing and are hard working. Also, school has been modernized and is gated now as well which is a huge plus for the kids and parents. Way to go Madison!!

I am grateful to have my daughter attend this school. The staff is compassionate, the principal has been bringing new ideas to the table for the students to be able to enjoy school more. I love the yearbook ideas. I absolutely love the days that I can go to school and have lunch with my daughter on "Lunch with a loved one" Day. My daughter just started her 4th grade in the G.A.T.E. program and she is simply siked about the whole idea, and of course so am I. My daughters 3rd grade teacher was Awesome, I am so grateful to her for everything. She used an app called Class Dojo to place notes there to let us parents know if our kids are doing good or misbehaving in class. And us parents can log on throughout the day and check on our kids. I would check up on my daughter all the time. I loved it....! I REALLY HOPE THAT EVERYONE SINGLE TEACHER IN THE SCHOOL CAN START US ING THE CLASS DOJO... To my understanding not every teacher uses it.

James Madison is an awesome school, along with their modernization on the school grounds, they have added really servicial friendly office staff, as busy as that office is all the time, with students, and parents, they are always there to help you with a kind welcoming. A new principal who's always present when children arrive to school, and when they leave, at the end of the day. Madison is an ALL new face re-modeled school, Madison students, parents, and staff, you rock!
