Second Grade Families - Remember to come to our fun Title 1 Family Activity! We can't wait to see you!!!

As children spend time on games and apps, remind them:
👻 Never share personal information 👻 Only chat with people they know in real life 👻 Tell an adult if something online makes them uncomfortable
A little caution helps everyone have a safe and fun Halloween season.

Tomorrow we’re putting our best foot forward by making healthy choices! Red Ribbon Week encourages students to understand the importance of staying drug free, taking care of themselves, and making decisions that help them reach their goals.
Every child deserves the opportunity to grow, learn, and chase their dreams in a safe and healthy environment. Small, positive choices today can make a BIG difference tomorrow!

Madison Elementary School is excited to celebrate Red Ribbon Week with this year’s theme: **“Make a Difference. Be a Hero. Stay Drug Free.”** Created by student Ava Tackett of Griswold Middle School in Connecticut, the theme reminds us that choosing to live drug-free takes courage and leadership—and that everyday choices can positively influence our peers, families, and communities.
Red Ribbon Week matters in education because it helps students learn about healthy choices early, build decision-making and refusal skills, and contribute to safe, healthy school communities. It also strengthens school-family partnerships and helps students stay focused on learning. 🌟

My role is to help remove barriers that may affect a child's attendance and success in school. Whether your family needs help accessing community resources, transportation assistance, housing support, healthcare services, food resources, or guidance navigating challenges, I am here to connect you with the support you need.
Working together, we can help students build strong attendance habits and create opportunities for academic success. Every child deserves the chance to thrive, and every family deserves support.
If you have questions or need assistance, don't hesitate to reach out. We're stronger when we work together! 💙💛

Technology should support our well-being, not overwhelm it.
Watch for signs that your child may need a break from screens: ✅ Trouble sleeping ✅ Increased irritability ✅ Less interest in offline activities
Sometimes the best refresh button is stepping away from technology for a while.



Madison families, please check your child’s backpack this afternoon for a letter about Priority Enrollment for the 2027–28 school year.
Families of students who qualify for Priority 1 or Priority 2 enrollment will be asked to indicate their preferred school based on their priority status under the new elementary school boundaries.
Madison students who live within the new Lincoln attendance boundary will have the opportunity to remain at Madison.
No all families will receive letters Monday. For more information about Priority Enrollment please go to https://www.woodcountyschoolswv.com/page/boundary-line-change-criss-emerson-lincoln-madison.
🎉 Way to go, Madison Elementary! 🎉
Congratulations to this week’s top-attending classes for Oct. 12–16:
🏆 Wilson — 99%
🌟 Jack — 98%
👏 Keiser — 97%
👏 Reid — 97%
👏 Davis — 96%
Madison’s weekly attendance was 95%, and our year-to-date attendance is 95%. Thank you, families, for helping students show up ready to learn!
Every school day matters: learning builds day by day, daily routines and friendships grow stronger, and regular attendance helps prevent gaps in reading and math. It also builds healthy habits that carry forward.
Let’s keep the momentum going—help your child be at school every day they can! 💙📚
Your Presence Matters!

Madison Elementary School is excited to announce that we have received a grant from the **West Virginia Central Credit Union Day of Giving Grant Program for the 2026 school year!**
These generous funds will help us keep our **Madison Mustang Cares Food and Hygiene Box** stocked throughout the school year!
Our Mustang Cares box provides students with snacks and easy-to-prepare food items to take home after school, along with a variety of essential hygiene products. This resource helps us support our students and families by providing access to items that can make a meaningful difference in their daily lives. Parents are invited to visit the box before, during and after school hours to help with their needs at home.
At Madison Elementary, we believe that taking care of our Mustangs goes beyond the classroom. We want every student to know that they are supported, valued, and cared for by their school community.
A heartfelt THANK YOU to West Virginia Central Credit Union for this generous grant and for investing in our students and our community! Your support helps us continue our mission of making sure our Mustangs have the resources they need to succeed.
With gratitude,
Principal Jeanna Plumly and the Madison Elementary School Staff
