Each day, one grade level has the chance to win the point toward the "Golden Spatula" for best cafeteria behavior (following our shared cafeteria expectations!). During our Friday Cardinal Rally, the grade level with the most points is awarded the "Golden Spatula" (and bragging rights!)

Our "Cardinal Kindness Coupons" are a new initiative to celebrate student kindness. When a student earns a "Cardinal Kindness Coupon" for being caught in the act of being kind at Madison, the student places their coupon in a grade-level bucket in the cafeteria. Students' names are drawn each week. Our "Cardinal Kindness Coupon" winners from last Friday were dismissed from class early to have a donut picnic with Principal Hoffmann on Monday afternoon. Our cardinal kindness winners were: Thiago Valencia, Cohen Armey, Brady Wills, Norah Hendrikse, Brett Ellis, Kinsley Browning, Carter Decker, Zoey Young, Aaron Jones, Emilee Vargas, Jack VanderMolen, Khloe Weaver, Lucas Hardy, Alonzo Gutierrez, Addison Goon, and Cora Giacoma We are so proud of our #KindCardinals. So far this year, Cardinals have been caught being kind 200+ times!
