Welcome to the new Madison County School System Board of Education section of our website. The purpose of this site is to serve as the official media outlet for announcements, press releases, meeting schedules and policies from the board of education.

The five members of the Board are elected to serve 4-year terms. Two candidates are elected from each of the two districts and one for chairman at-large. Candidates are elected on a nonpartisan basis. Voters in each district vote for candidates within their respective district and for the chairman at-large. The Board of Education is committed to working toward setting and achieving goals that will improve the Madison County School System's instructional programs. The Board's goals include:

Board meetings are scheduled for the fourth Monday of each month. Meetings begin with a closed session at 5:00 p.m. and the general session at 7:00 p.m. Meetings are normally held at Madison High School in the Little Theater with every 3rd meeting being held at other schools in our school system on a rotating schedule.
