Midtown Elementary School

As a Purple Star School, we are committed to supporting the unique educational and social-emotional needs of military-connected children. The Purple Star School Program was designed to help mitigate the challenges of high mobility by setting standards and publicly designating military-friendly schools. The Purple Star Award recognizes schools that show a major commitment to students and families connected to our nation’s military. 

Established in Madison City Schools in 2016, Student 2 Student™ (S2S™) is designed to increase awareness of and address school transitions affecting mobile elementary school students through a faculty-led and student-engaged model.

Military kids move 6-9 times during their K-12 education, and change schools 3X more often than their civilian peers. 

What are the S2S Core Values?

Leadership: Student Character Growth

Academics: Educational Opportunities

Service: School and Community Outreach

Climate and Culture: School and Community

Relationships: Creating Connections

100% Acceptance: Fitting In
