At the Heim-Berg Team, we've guided hundreds of families through finding their perfect home in Omaha's top school districts. We're often asked which district is "better" – Millard or Elkhorn? Both districts offer exceptional education, but each has unique strengths that might make one a better fit for your family.

Performance Trends Entering 2025
While walking through our most recent home showings in Elkhorn, we noticed a fascinating trend. The district's remarkable 97% graduation rate and expanded AP program have attracted a wave of tech professionals moving to Omaha. Meanwhile, Millard continues its tradition of excellence with its International Baccalaureate program, which produces stellar results—a point of pride we love sharing with relocating families.

Neighborhood Value Stories
We recently helped a family find their dream home near Millard North High School. They were thrilled to learn that homes in this area have appreciated 14% over the past year, outpacing the broader Omaha market. In Elkhorn, new construction near Blue Sage Elementary has created exciting opportunities for families wanting to build equity while accessing top-tier education.
The Latest Boundary Changes

Having served this community for over three decades, we've witnessed numerous boundary shifts. The most recent change affecting Manchester Elementary in Elkhorn has opened up new buyer possibilities. We just helped clients find a beautiful ranch-style home that will now feed into this highly-rated school – precisely the kind of insider knowledge that makes a difference in your home search.

Beyond the Numbers
Test scores tell only part of the story. In Millard, we love highlighting the STEM program at Aldrich Elementary, where students do amazing things with robotics. Over in Elkhorn, the new performing arts center at Elkhorn South High School has transformed the community's cultural landscape.

Growth and Development Impact
Have you watched the expansion near 180th Street? If you have, you see an interesting story developing about both districts. Elkhorn is responding dynamically to population growth with its new elementary school breaking ground, while Millard continues enhancing existing facilities with state-of-the-art learning technology.

Looking Ahead: 2025 and Beyond
Our team closely monitors these developments to help you make informed decisions about your home purchase. Both districts have exciting plans. Millard's proposed advanced learning centers and Elkhorn's upcoming middle school will likely influence home values in their respective areas. 


Making Your Choice
Every family's needs are unique. That's why we take time to understand your priorities – from academic programs to extracurricular activities to commute times. Our deep knowledge of both districts helps us guide you to the perfect neighborhood for your family.
