Madison High School offers students a great experience. They have plenty of clubs and sports to get involved with. Madison has small classes so you can get help from your teacher one on one. There are many resources and opportunities at Madison High School.

The way people have changed over the years is outstanding. It isn't all about who is the best dressed or all the cheerleaders and football players being apart of homecoming king and queen. They finally have other kids in it including band members. I would like to see more change in popularity because after high you won't see half of these people ever again.
