Welcome to the MMSD Voices podcast, where we go into our public school community in Madison, Wisconsin, and hear directly from the voices of our students, staff, and families. The Madison Metropolitan School District is the second largest school district in Wisconsin and serves over 27,000 students in 50 schools.
