Alfred S. Madrid Middle School

Wishing our Mountain View students, families, staff and community a safe and happy Halloween!

Madrid Middle School held a Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) event this week themed Harvesting for Books where all students were able to choose a book of their ch...oice for their home reading collection. Additionally, in honor of Red Ribbon Week, the first 30 students to pick up a book each day received a bag of red candy. The school also gave away free pumpkins to the first 10 students to arrive each day so they may enter the school’s Pumpkin Carving Contest and a chance to win a Starbucks gift card. Madrid staff and parent volunteers did a great job decorating and everyone enjoyed seeing each other for the special event. See more

Madrid Middle School’s Students Run LA (SRLA) team, led by coach and teacher, David Dorf, participated in the SRLA Strength 10K this past Sunday. The first rac...e of the SRLA 2020-2021 race series is usually a large event bringing all area SRLA teams together, but this year due the pandemic, teams held their own 10Ks locally. Madrid’s team ran their race at Whittier Narrows. The student runners did a great job and the coaches, support staff, runners and family members enjoyed the event and were proud of the efforts displayed by all. Madrid’s team will continue to train as they gear up for the next race in the SRLA series, a 15K on November 15, and other races leading up to the 26.2 mile LA Marathon scheduled for March 21. Congratulations Bulldogs on a great race! See more

This week MVSD schools are participating in Red Ribbon Week and students are pledging to live drug, alcohol, tobacco and vaping free lives. Joining in the nati...onal drug prevention campaign, schools are holding virtual activities and fun dress up days promoting being drug-free while honoring Kiki Camarena, a DEA agent who died while fighting substance abuse. The El Monte Police Department created a Red Ribbon Week video for schools to utilize during Distance Learning, featuring the Police Chief, School Resource Officers, Safety Officers, Detectives, K-9 Officers, SWAT Officers, Tactical Flight Officers and the Chief Pilot, promoting this year’s Red Ribbon Week theme Be Happy. Be Brave. Be Drug Free. The officers shared how much they miss the students and encouraged them to work hard in school, keep focused on their goals and stay away from drugs, alcohol, tobacco and vaping. MVSD greatly appreciates the efforts and partnership of the El Monte Police Department for their continued support of our students and schools. See more
