Principal's Message
Dear Stallion Community,
As we prepare to embark on the 2024-2025 school year, I am filled with excitement and anticipation for what promises to be an incredible journey for our students, staff, and community at Madera South High School.
This upcoming school year brings with it new opportunities for growth, learning, and achievement. Our dedicated team of educators has been working diligently to create a dynamic and engaging educational experience that will both challenge and inspire our students. We are committed to providing a supportive and inclusive environment where every student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
We are thrilled to have numerous programs and initiatives designed to enrich the educational experience. This includes our Career Technical Educational programs that offer learning that embraces ingenuity, cutting-edge technology, hands-on projects, and most importantly, relevance through connections to the real world. Our CTE courses have earned local, state, and national recognition for the amazing work our staff and students have done.
Our arts and humanities programs continue to grow, with opportunities in visual arts, music, theater, and creative writing. This includes new courses like journalism, film appreciation, sculpture, Folklorico dance, printmaking, and many more. We believe in nurturing the creative talents of our students and providing them with avenues for self-expression.
The well-being of our students is a top priority. We have many staff members who provide wellness programs and mental health resources to support our students in developing healthy habits and coping skills. This staff includes our school counselors, school psychologists, behavioral health clinicians, student advocates team, intervention support specialist, and community support specialist.
We are also hoping to strengthen our ties with you– the community. We aim to build stronger partnerships through shared efforts, events, and celebrations. We believe that a strong school-community connection enhances the educational experience for everyone. We need your voice in our meetings and your participation in our councils.
Together, we will make the 2024-2025 school year a memorable and successful one for all our students. Thank you for your continued partnership and trust in our school.
Warm regards,
Jon Steinmetz, Madera South Principal
ਸਾਡਾ ਇਤਿਹਾਸ
Madera South High School is a high school located in Madera, California, and is part of the Madera Unified School District.
In the late 1980s, the Madera Unified School District commissioned a new high school to be built, to take some of the weight off of Madera High School by easing up some of the overcrowding of the school. Construction started in 1990, but a limited budget forced an abrupt end in 1992. It was decided that the campus was not big enough to be counted as a separate stand-alone high school, and the site was eventually renamed Madera High School’s “South Campus” (with the original school being given the new name “North Campus”).
In November 2002, a school bond was passed, allowing MUSD to fund the completion of the project. As a result, the idea of a new, separate high school was once again possible after 10 years. Construction resumed on the campus in late 2004, yet heavy rain and other factors slowed it to a halt. The set date of August 2005 was pushed back a year, and as a result, the incoming freshmen at the school were still labeled as Madera High School students. However, by August 2006, construction had been completed, and Madera South High School opened its doors.
In 2009, Madera South graduated their first class as a high school. Even though the Class of 2009 was mixed with Madera High students their freshman year (2005–2006), the two schools were completely separated by their senior year (2008–2009).
