I'm a graduating eighth grader this year and my experience with Madison, from sixth grade up, was pretty poor.

My experience with this school and all of APS has been pure disappointment. I now homeschool my kids and their education, behaviors and attitudes have improved dramatically. Homeschooling is easier than you think! If you're upset about public schools, why put your most precious treasures into them?
