Classes

Parent participation program — please sign up

German School of Madison
As you will recall, when you registered your children, we ask that each family fill one volunteer position for the school during the 2014-15 school year. Parents who have volunteered for our School in the past have found it to be fun and a great way to get to know other families in our community.  We hope you will enjoy your involvement in the school, and please know that we count on each of you.
You will find detailed information on the different jobs, as well as the on-line registration form here.
When you access the on-line sign-up form, you will see that you are asked to provide a first, second, and third choice of job. We will make every effort to match you with your preferred job.  There is a comment field at the end of the form for your ideas and questions. We look forward to hearing from you!
Please sign up before August 15, 2014. This gives us time to get organized before classes begin in September. Thank you — and we’ll see you in September.

Scholarships and deadline extension

German School of Madison
We are delighted at all the registrations we have already received for the school year 2014-15.  Some classes are almost filled to capacity, and we will be welcoming many new faces to our School in the fall. Our teachers are preparing lesson plans, ordering books, and looking forward to meeting their students!
We have exciting news.
First, for all classes, we are extending the “EARLY BIRD” DISCOUNT of $25 to JULY 15 in an effort to encourage parents to secure a spot for their child in our classes early!  Please register online and pay the $200 deposit before July 15 to receive the discount.
Second, due to the generosity of our families, for the first time we will be able to offer two partial need-based scholarships, each $200, for children enrolling in Deutsch 1, Deutsch 2, Deutsch 3, or DaF 1/German as a Foreign Language. Please click on the scholarship link to find out more about the process. The deadline for applications is also July 15.
If you would like to donate to our scholarship fund, you can do so via our Paypal donations link.
Edited to add: Thanks to the generosity of the GSoM community, we could award two partial scholarships, each $250.
