What's Happening at West Madison

Happy Veterans Day!


I would like to thank all those who serve and have served in the military.   Because of you, we live in the land of the free and the home of the brave.   However, freedom is not free. It costs every time a soldier leaves home. I know that it costs more than we can even imagine. Thank you to our soldiers  and all your families.  


Our Veterans Day Honor Assembly was so wonderful.  It was a special moment in time for us as well as for the Honorees.  We had approximately 20 Honorees present.  It was great having so many there.  We began the special time with the Bob Jones Honor Guard...Presentation and posting of Colors.  Emma, a sixth grade student play the National Anthem on the violin.  It was truly inspirational.  

Our fourth and sixth grade students sang America, while signing the song.  It was such a great day.  Our Honorees were also treated to a breakfast by the West Madison Faculty and Staff.

So thankful for our Honorees and their service to our country


Enrichment Students went to the Madison Senior Center to Honor Veterans!

Enrichment students traveled to the Madison Senior Center to Honor Veterans there. They then taught the group to juggle and played games with them.  



To take a phrase from Mr. Parker, It was definitely a great day to be a West Madison Wildcat!
