DOUGLAS COUNTY, Colo. â A 10-acre field tucked within the Sierra Ridge development in Douglas County was supposed to be the site of a new school. But today, the site still remains undeveloped.
âThe developers may not be at fault, but they still continue to tell people that you will have a school, Kate Berger-Martin said.
She lives about two miles from the proposed site for the new public elementary school. Her kids currently attend Prairie Crossing Elementary, but that could soon change.
