    Madison Middle School Honor Code 

    Our commitment to the principles of Integrity, Respect and Responsibility, forms the basis of Madison MiddleSchool’s guidelines for student behavior. These principles weave throughout the school’s curriculum, in the classrooms, on the playing fields, in co- curricular activities and in ways that students represent the school in the larger community. To enhance our understanding of these fundamental principles, each student is requested to sign and abide by the Madison Middle School Honor Code. I am responsible for the following:
    1. Being honest in all my work and my interactions with people.
    2. Not cheating on a test or on a school assignment by using the words or ideas of another person.
    3. Completing all my assignments to the best of my ability.
    4. Respecting the physical and emotional feelings of everyone in the school community.
    5. Respecting the property of others. I will not damage, use improperly or destroy the property of another person or of the school.
    6. Using the property of another person only when I have permission.
    Students are expected to abide by the Honor Code and follow the guidelines of respect for self, respect for others, and respect for the community that are detailed in the student handbook. Just do the right thing.
    • A – Always do your best work.
    • G – Generate a positive environment at MMS.
