[quote=Anonymous]Madison is stronger across the board: better academics, stronger athletics, better extra-curriculars like band and crew, and more local community support. The IB program is good for developing college-level writing skills, but you can get that in AP courses and being an IB diploma candidate doesn't count that much in terms of college admissions compared to grades, SAT/ACT scores and extra-curriculars. Having said that, if you've found a house you like in the Marshall district, it's still a good school, even if it's not as sought-after as Madison. [/quote]
