Madison District Public Schools is a public school district in Metro Detroit in the U.S. state of Michigan, serving a portion of Madison Heights.[3] The district is the smallest in Oakland County by enrollment, with 894 students in the 2023-2024 school year.

History

The site of Wilkinson Middle School originally held the former high school, which was built in the late 1920s. The first class graduated in 1918.[4] The current high school was built in 1960.[5]

Voters passed an $11.4 million bond issue in 2013[6] and Shoenhals Elementary was renovated and expanded, changing its name to Madison Elementary and becoming the district's only elementary school.[7] In fall 2015, Edison Elementary (27321 Hampden[8]) became Keys Grace Academy, a charter school authorized by Madison District Public Schools and geared toward Chaldean students.[9]
