We've just moved to the area and are looking to purchase in the Madison school district. I find myself looking at houses in the Columbia, Heritage and Mill Creek areas. All seem to be similar according to greatschools.org, so thought I'd ask for some real time input.

Thanks!

Honestly, I think you'll be happy with all of your choices!
Great Schools is a wonderful source of info.
I would tour the schools and see which you feel is a better fit for your kids. Best of luck!

All three of those are great schools. You can't go wrong. My kids were at Heritage originally and then rezoned to Mill Creek. We love them both.

Madison does a super job with their elementary schools. You should feel comfortable sending them to any of them, not just these three.

Thanks so much for the feedback. I've visited all three and had good impressions of each of them. Guess it just boils down to finding a house!

how is your search going. I am in the process of making the same decisions and finding a place. I am leaning towards Mill Creek elementary but would love more feedback.

I would say Columbia, because they named a college after it
