technology connectivity means a high-speed fiber optic infrastructure weaves
its way through each home and the entire neighborhood; the Exchange Building is
Gold Hill Mesa's neighborhood commons and will include a restaurant, exercise
facility, mail room, dental office and dry cleaners.

Schools/districts
Colorado Springs School
District 11 is the city's largest school district and serves most of
central and western Colorado Springs.
Midland International Elementary
School is an International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme school,
meaning intellectual rigor is combined with international understanding and
responsible citizenship. It is the first school in District 11 with this
distinction, and one of about 275 schools worldwide to offer the program.
West Middle School
focuses on teaching a core curriculum while allowing students to explore electives
like art, band, modern languages and space and technology. Grades are kept
separate throughout the day, each one having individual passing periods and
lunches.

informed role in the education of their child.
