Success Stories Madison High School orchestra students and staff recently traveled to Orlando, Florida. The group impressed the judges, earning a Superior rating and gold medal at the music festival. Severe weather resulted in cancelled flights and delays in getting groups home. Madison groups worked to make the best of the situation. Students provided an impromptu concert in one of the hotel lobbies. All groups arrived safely home by Thursday. Superintendent Lords expressed his appreciation to Luke Sutton and Cory Carter for each providing a meal and Madison Memorial for providing a meal and activity for those stranded. Madison High School Marching Band performed and represented the district and community well during their California trip. Students enjoyed a recording session at the Disneyland studio. It was a highlight to hear the school song played as they marched down Main Street USA at Disneyland Park. South Fork Elementary recently hosted a STEM day. Students shared the processes they worked through and the knowledge they gained as they completed their projects. The MHS Robotics group joined in the day with presentations in the gym. Attendees were impressed with the efforts of all those who participated. 3 Student Council Presentation Madison High School Student Council presented to the board on their trips to California and Moscow. They attended workshops and activities focused on team building, bonding as a council and working toward a common goal. One of the favorite workshops was immersive storytelling where participants learned about stories, symbols, and using words to covey multiple thoughts. Student Council members sought permission to attend the leadership conference at Utah State University June 1-3, 2026. At a cost of $250/person, this conference would include incoming student council officers. Mr. Palmer moved to approve the Student Council Leadership Conference at Utah State University. The motion was seconded by Mr. Weber and passed unanimously. Madison High School Chiller Bids Superintendent Lords reported that the HVAC system at MHS has been running on one motor. As it is fifteen years old, it was recommended that the chiller be replaced. A lot of current district equipment is manufactured by Trane. Mark Hopkins, district HVAC specialist, will be involved in the installation to save money. House Bill 521 dollars will be used for the project. Mr. Weber moved to approve the $235,800 bid from Trane for the chiller replacement. Mr. Egbert seconded the motion which passed unanimously. Policy 5360 Review One discussion point raised by teachers throughout the year is blue jeans. The current dress code policy allows blue jeans one Friday per month on Madison Education Foundation Jeans Day. The board will decide if a review of the current policy is needed. Legislative Update Mr. Weber, as the Idaho School Board Association representative, reported that we are down to the last 1-2 weeks of the legislative session. House Bill 623, which has passed the House and Senate, would require a moment of silence in schools each day. House Bill 831 would mandate that schools be closed on election days. Madison School District already schedules virtual days around voting days. House Bill 352 As an information only item, Mr. Lords presented information to the board regarding compliance to house Bill 352. He recommended the board review the info and update the current Madison School District Policy 3285. 4 Levy Info Mass communication, to twenty or more voters, in any form must include the average annual cost to taxpayers. The estimated average annual cost to the taxpayer on the proposed levy is a tax of $52.97 per $100,000 of taxable assessed value per year based on current conditions. The supplemental levy seeks $1.995 million per year for two years for salaries and benefits, safety/technology, curriculum, and buses/transportation.
