Meet Russell Branch

Welcome to the home of the Owls.

Russell Branch Elementary opened for the 2026–27 school year as Madison City Schools’ first elementary campus west of County Line Road. Its campus was designed with art and music spaces, science and STEM laboratories, a media center, and two outdoor classroom areas between the classroom wings. Students also participate in the district’s elementary program, which includes art, music, physical education, Spanish and STEM alongside classroom academics.

For families moving to Madison, getting connected is part of settling in. Russell Branch participates in Student 2 Student, a districtwide program that brings military and civilian classmates together to help ease school transitions. Parents can join the school’s PTA and follow its RBES Rundown updates to get to know school activities and events. For planning the daily routine, the building opens to students at 7:10 a.m., and the school day runs from 7:40 a.m. to 2:40 p.m.

Before you choose a home

Check the address.
Then make your next move.

Use current zoning to narrow your search. When you find a home you like, confirm the exact address.

  1. Choose the property

    You will need the full address for most homes, and you will need the lot number and phase for some new construction.

  2. Confirm current zoning

    Check the property’s 2026–2027 elementary assignment and ask about any address-specific exceptions.

  3. Plan enrollment

    Review the enrollment requirements and timing for your move.

Let CWR handle the zoning check.

Share the property address and we'll verify it before you make a decision.
