Bond Updates

June 2023

The last week of the 2022-2023 school year, current and former staff, students, family members and administrators gathered at Madison Elementary School to remember and honor the building that has housed students for more than 60 years. Right after school was out for the year, contractors began preparing the old Madison school for tear down, which will occur over the summer. Construction of the new school is on schedule and slated to open in August when students return.
August 2021

Madison Elementary School will be rebuilt on the site of the existing school. It is currently in the development and design phase, working with architects from Hord, Coplan and Macht, the same group that designed Greeley West High School. The contractor for this project is Adolfson and Peterson, who is also constructing Greeley West. The school is slated to open in August 2023.
January 2021

A Mission and Vision Task Force met six times last semester to recommend the grade configuration and focus of the new Madison. This committee received feedback from staff, parents and students to reach these recommendations. The intent is for the new Madison to be a preschool-eighth grade, with a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) focus and the intent to work toward becoming an AVID Showcase School. The group also recommended forming a Naming Committee to decide whether or not Madison should be renamed. Architects for this new school will be hired this Spring, and a Design Advisory Group will begin meeting.
