BAM Broadband’s fiber network expansion in Highlands Ranch, Colorado will continue through 2025, reaching thousands of additional homes, businesses, and multi-dwelling units (MDUs).

The project, which began in 2024, is part of BAM’s larger expansion efforts in Arizona and Colorado, the ISP’s March 30 announcement stated.

Currently, BAM is undertaking additional builds in Scottsdale and metro areas south of Denver, according to BAM’s release.

The company has also recently introduced a “Price Lock Guarantee” program on plans exceeding 1.2 gigabits per second.

“This guarantee reinforces the company’s commitment to transparent pricing, ensuring that customers enjoy reliable, high-speed internet without the worry of hidden fees and continuing price hikes in the future,” the ISP’s announcement said.

Jack Koo, the CEO of BAM Broadband, said BAM is additionally now “the only provider in our markets offering symmetrical 8.5 (gigabits per second) speeds.”

“As with every community we serve, our commitment to Highlands Ranch goes beyond simply being an internet service provider,” said Donald Ray, an SVP with BAM. “We’re here to be the opposite of the cable company – offering fast, reliable internet service without endless cycles of price hikes, service interruptions and poor customer support.”

According to Ray, when customers interact with BAM teams, they’re interacting with staff that work and live locally.

“We’re not here to just deliver fast internet – we’re also here to build meaningful community partnerships that drive growth and innovation in the communities we serve,” he said.

Highlands Ranch, located in Douglas County, has a population of over 100,000, according to recent census data.

As high school seniors inch closer to walking across the stage at graduation, many students have already begun to reflect on their high school years. And with that, they think about the teachers and coaches who made an impact on their lives.

But what the students may not always know is how they have also made a difference in their teachers’ lives.

“Have no doubt that while your teachers may not always say it between the algebraic problems, the coding, making you rewrite that essay for the 15th time, we love the impact you’ve had,” said Dr. Christopher Paige, principal of Highlands Ranch High School.

For Tony Koy, a long-time teacher at Rock Canyon High School, it’s interacting, inspiring and learning from the students that keeps him coming back year after year.

“It’s the reason that we do this job,” said Koy. “I love the teaching, but I love the interactions with (students) and just getting to know them.”

Koy has taught at Rock Canyon High School since 2006. And although he might just think of himself as a math teacher, many of the students see him as a celebrity, knowing that they can count on him for a high five in the hallway, even if they don’t have him as a teacher.

“The math is fun, but getting to know them as people is so much more important,” Koy said.

Similar sentiments were echoed as more than 40 teachers and coaches from across Douglas County were honored at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Highlands Ranch Stake’s annual Teacher Appreciation Awards.

Like Koy, numerous teachers – such as Brain Wood and Patrick McGuire from Mountain Vista High School, and Samantha Wheatley and Thomas Sullivan of ThunderRidge High School – have been nominated by multiple students over the years.

From biology to business teachers, theater to robotics teachers, gymnastics and tennis coaches, educators from Highlands Ranch High School, Skyview Academy, Legacy Campus, Ascent Classical Academy and Valor Christian High School were also honored.

Words such as “thoughtful,” “inspiring,” “welcoming,” “good-hearted,” “easy to talk to” and “compassionate” were used by the students to describe these teachers and coaches.

While teachers and coaches listened to what was being said about them, Paige wanted them to take a moment to truly feel what was being said.

“We get going about our day doing the hard things and working so much to provide a safe, amazing environment and opportunity for each and every one of our students, that sometimes in the hustle and bustle of that, we forget the impact that we make,” Paige said.

Lots of laughter, and a few tears, were shared as the students’ words came to life:

As CHSAA Assistant Commissioner Rashaan Davis read what the students wrote out loud, he noted the anecdotes weren’t about a particular assignment or a hard test – they were about creating a space for students to be brave.

“It is that reminder of what happens in schools,” said Rashaan. “While we’re busy trying to teach and get the book into your head before the test, students are wondering if you’re going to connect with them as a human being.”

STERLING RANCH, Colo. — Crews could break ground on Zebulon, a massive sports complex planned for Sterling Ranch, as soon as August. However, Denver7 is hearing concerns from Douglas County residents about the project's location and what amenities will be included.

According to site plans, Zebulon will be built near Moore Road and Waterton Road.

Renderings for the project include spaces for basketball, baseball/softball, volleyball, football, soccer and hockey, as well as the preservation of more than 400 acres of open space in the area.

Abe Laydon, chairman of the Douglas County Board of County Commissioners, said Zebulon will bring a wealth of amenities to the county, thanks to a voter-approved sales tax for parks.

"We have seen, over time, many of our families traveling to Florida, Georgia, all over the country, Texas, for these great tournaments, because there's no place in Douglas County — and really in Colorado — for them to be able to do that," said Laydon.

Mark Steinke, president of Raptors Athletics, knows field space is hard to come by. He's dealing with the reality of losing fields due to the Douglas County Fairgrounds expansion.

Steinke, who lives in Castle Rock, believes Zebulon isn't the answer.

"The difficulty we have is that it's just so far away... Amazing project, love it, jealous of it, actually, but it just isn't a good solution for what we got going," he said.

Laydon told Denver7 Highlands Ranch was considered for Zebulon but wasn't the right fit.

"All the citizens there really reached out to us during a number of town halls and citizen discussions last year, saying, 'No, no, that's a really important area to preserve as open space,'" Laydon explained.

Mom of four Erin Brill was hoping Zebulon would solve a major issue in Douglas County: a lack of competitive pools.

"The number of messages that I was receiving from families of teams that I help support, going, 'You're kidding me. Still no pool?'" said Brill.

Competition pools are not in the Zebulon project plans. Denver7 asked Commissioner Laydon if Douglas County is working to address that gap.

"We have been in really great conversations with not only Highlands Ranch but also our incorporated areas like Lone Tree Parker, Castle Rock. They have amazing recreational amenities that include pools," said Laydon.

Douglas County is hosting a town hall on April 14 at 5:30 p.m. at the Philip S. Mill Building, located at 100 Third Street in Castle Rock, for those interested in learning more about Zebulon and other ongoing park projects.
