When we asked Mrs. Engelhardt to think up some ideas for a new mural, we were not expecting this masterpiece. ⭐Holy WOW!!⭐

Thank you, Katrina, for your sharing your incredible talents with the entire Madison community. Students, teachers, parents, and community members will enjoy your efforts for years to come. You have really outdone yourself.

We also want to thank our Neck River PTO members for funding this project. Join the PTO to support amazing things like this for our kids!!

OK, Neck River... We currently stand at 250 of our 689 students having a dismissal plan form filled out. Can we make it to 500 by the end of the weekend?? CLICK BELOW to complete one for each child.

Returning your child(ren) safely to you each day is of utmost importance to us at Neck River. Please take the time to complete this form (one per child) so that we know exactly how your child will be getting home each day. We will use this as their regular, dismissal plan from day one of school. Ple...

Finally, our August Staff Spotlights wouldn’t be complete without introducing Ashley Woron!

Ashley is joining Neck River as a Special Education teacher and will be serving as our PAL teacher this year. She is looking forward to building new relationships, getting to know her students, and making a positive mark on our school community. She’s also no stranger to a challenge. Ashley has completed a full marathon and hopes to run another one someday!

Outside of school, Ashley enjoys spending time with her family, working out, reading, and finding a little time for self-care. Ashley's favorite children's book is Goodnight Moon.

We’re so excited to have Ashley joining us this year and look forward to all she’ll bring to our Neck River community!

Rounding out our August Staff Spotlight series, we're excited to welcome back Chase Walker as our new Physical Education teacher!

Chase joined the Neck River team last year as a long-term substitute in our PE department and quickly became a fan favorite among our students. We're thrilled he'll be returning this year! Chase will be splitting his time between Neck River and Polson Middle School, and we're so glad our students will continue to benefit from his enthusiasm and positive energy.

Chase is most excited to see all of his students again this year! When he's not at school, he enjoys hiking. A fun fact about Chase is that he's the youngest of five boys! His favorite children's book is The Giving Tree.

Welcome back, Chase! We're looking forward to another great year with you as part of the Neck River team.
