Also, more of the yellow school busses are used by elementary students, while middle and high school students rely more on city busses. The times will, of course, be adjusted to the new start and end times. If parents are interested in registering their child in one of the existing programs, contact the providers directly to indicate your interest. If, for example, the child care program does NOT currently offer a before school program but parents are interested in starting one, contact the providers. The organization might begin a program if there is sufficient interest.
Every elementary school serves breakfast for, at most, a moderate cost.
Students may come to school 15 minutes earlier to have breakfast. Contact the school if you have questions about the breakfast program. There are probably other, creative ways that families can adjust to these changes, including working something out with neighbors or other students' families. The Madison School District also has a responsibility to the whole community to be as cost efficient as possible. In this time of ever tightening state revenue caps, we have to be efficient in our operations so that we can continue to provide the same level of classroom support that we have now.
