Welcome to the South Madison Community School Corporation website. We thank you for your interest in the District, and it is our hope that we can serve you. Our objective is to provide you with meaningful and helpful information about our school system. Your questions and feedback are encouraged via electronic mail or you may call or mail us at any time.
Our commitment is to achieve outstanding student achievement and long-standing, mutually beneficial relationships by incorporating and living by a number of core values. These are the beliefs that guide our behavior and ensure our continuing success.
Character has been - and will always be - the keystone of our school district. Character results from a series of wise decisions. Choosing wisely requires not only knowledge of right and wrong and an accurate appraisal of the situation, but also the discernment of what principles to bring to bear and what they conclude. It also requires the fortitude to do what ought to be done, no matter how difficult it is. We will continue to be an institution guided by ethical strength.
Students are the reason that each SMCSC employee has a job. Our thoughts and actions should always be focused on answering the question "How will my decision or action impact the student." We will continue to put students first in our priorities and our decision-making.
We have enjoyed success because of the willingness of our people to serve. As we serve others, we usually reap the rewards. Not that our motive to serve is to get, that it is just how it tends to work out in the end. I believe that those who wish to become great must be willing to serve. We will continue to be an organization known for our "servant spirit."
A steward is someone who is enlisted by an owner and charged with the management of the owner's possessions. I believe that all the things we have at our disposal are on loan. We cannot take them with us, but we can use them wisely while we are here. I also believe that we are accountable for all that has been entrusted to us - our time, talents, relationships, and the district's financial resources. We will act accordingly. We will continue to embody the qualities of stewardship.
It is my privilege to serve you!
