Huegel at a Glance

Madison’s only “school in the round” has been known as an innovative school since its opening in 1966. Strong teaching teams in grades K-5 share a philosophy that all children can learn and are included in all school activities and classrooms. An active parent organization supports many school activities and promotes multicultural experiences. An outdoor learning center and school prairie are part of our environment.
