Additionally, there is a private academy that acts as a feeder school for the one, centralized high school. Madison County High School has a student body of approximately 980 students in grades nine through twelve. This is our fourth year implementing the 4X4 block schedule. Students take four, 85-minute classes each day. They complete a course in 18 weeks.
Teachers have three classes of instruction and one planning period every day.
The school offers a variety of activities for students to participate and grow in academics, athletics, and the arts. Likewise, MCHS has several vocational tracks designed to provide students with a more focused pathway through high school, as well as, to prepare them for occupations relating to these fields. Currently, the tracks include agriculture and health. My classroom is an elongated rectangle. There are three, permanently mounted lab tables along each of the two, longest walls.
