MMSD Opens Madison Promise Spring Semester Enrollment Window for High School Students
MADISON, Wis.—The Madison Metropolitan School District (MMSD) has opened the spring semester enrollment window for Madison Promise, the district’s fully online learning program for high school students.
Families interested in exploring a flexible, student-centered learning option are invited to apply beginning today. Students enrolled in Madison Promise can take a full schedule of MMSD courses taught by licensed teachers, with opportunities to personalize the pace and structure of their learning.
The program is designed to support a wide range of student needs, including those who prefer online learning, those balancing responsibilities outside of school and those seeking a quieter or more self-directed academic setting.
“Madison Promise continues to be a strong option for students who thrive in an online environment,” said Mary Jankovich, executive director of college, career and community readiness. “Our educators work closely with each learner to build relationships, support their academic progress and ensure they have what they need to succeed.”
Launched in the 2021–22 school year, Madison Promise serves students in grades nine through 12 and offers a complete virtual learning environment grounded in five core principles: meaningful student engagement, strong relationship-building with dedicated teachers, high-quality professional development for educators, flexibility and a commitment to student voice and choice.
“Flexibility and belonging are at the heart of Madison Promise,” Jankovich said. “The online setting allows us to meet students where they are and support them in taking ownership of their learning in ways that fit their goals.”
The application window will remain open through Jan. 16, and space may be limited.
Families can learn more about curriculum, expectations and enrollment on the Madison Promise website. For additional information or support with the application process, families are encouraged to contact the district through Let’s Talk.
