MADISON, Alabama — Madison City Schools is asking parents to complete a form determining if their child will attend school in person or virtually for the upcoming semester.
Families who don't choose a learning platform preference by November 30 will automatically have students assigned to school-based learning.
The deadline to submit platform preference forms is November 30.
The district sent the following letter to parents:
As we near the midpoint of this school year, plans are being finalized for next semester for both school-based and virtual-learning platforms. Now is the time to choose the learning platform for your child(ren). It is very important that Madison City Schools receive your learning platform preference forms by November 30. We want to emphasize that the November 30 deadline applies to all levels: elementary, middle and high school students. Parents should submit this new form even if their child is virtual and the form was completed a few weeks ago.
Please note that when you choose for your student to be virtual or school-based, you are committing your child for the entire spring semester. If a response to the 2nd Semester Intent form is not submitted, then your student will be placed in school-based classes for the upcoming semester.
Elementary parents, your principal will send out information very soon with the learning intent form with other information that may be helpful.
Secondary parents will find the learning intent form in the letter from Dr. Nichols attached in this district communication.
An FAQ page is also attached addressing issues at both elementary and secondary levels.
