SchoolDigger.com ranked Douglas County School District No.1 in the Denver metropolitan area and No.12 in Colorado based on 2009 test scores. School district rankings were determined by averaging the rankings of individual schools within each of the 122 districts evaluated.
The Douglas County School District is a central feature of the documentary Education Inc., which includes information on the pro-charter school and pro-voucher school board majority was elected in 2009. As a consequence, teacher exodus increased from 10.2 percent to 16.7 percent in the 2014-15 school year. In the 2013-14 school year, it had been as high as 17.3 percent. The new school board also launched a voucher program that diverted funds from public schools to private schools, including religious ones. The school board's free-market philosophy also launched protests by parents and students.
In 2015, the Colorado Supreme Court struck down Douglas County's school voucher program as violating the state constitution.
