 We loved having Madison High School band, strings, and chorus students perform for us today!
From the Principal's Desk:
It has been a fantastic first week at Louise Archer! New and returning students have done an excellent job finding their way around the school. We have been so thrilled to see our students back in the building and connecting with each other again. All of our teachers have worked tirelessly behind the scenes to set up a positive, safe learning environment as we start the year.
This year, we will keep you informed on a regular basis through schoolwide communication and emails from your child's teacher. We look forward to seeing you at BTSN on September 5th so you can learn more information about your child's classroom. See below for more details about the times and format for our Back to School Night. We are excited to work together to make this a positive, productive school year for all of our students!
Sincerely,
Michelle Makrigiorgos Jennifer Condra
Principal Assistant Principal

Early Release Mondays
The Early Release Mondays planned throughout the school year for elementary schools are essential to allow educators time for planning and professional development. Students will be dismissed 3 hours early seven times throughout the school year and are encouraged to return home via their normal route. However, we understand there may be a childcare hardship because of the early release Mondays for many of our families. To resolve these concerns, student supervision will be available for families who need it.
The following dates are planned for Early Release Mondays throughout the school year:
- September 23
- October 28
- November 25
- February 24
- March 17
- April 28
- May 19
To help plan for our school’s childcare needs during the early release Mondays, please complete this form: https://forms.gle/dMywXDqp1eYneb1b8 for each of your children who are enrolled at Archer Elementary. The form covers the first two early release Mondays, scheduled for September 23, 2024 and October 28, 2024. If you have multiple children, you will need to submit multiple forms. Staff will confirm the after school supervision plan for each student.
