Douglas county is now rated at 22nd out of 109 districts. 
Just last year, Douglas County was ranked 15th.
It fell 7 places in 1 year.
Because of the willful destruction that they have done, no doubt we will be in the 30s, possibly 40s, before things are turned around (you do not build a great school or district overnight). 

When your GOP party took over, IIRC, we were ranked at around 7 (or 5). 
Basically, their reforms have been to destroy public school.
Douglas county had NO real union to speak of, PRIOR to 'the reformers'. 
That is why this district was targeted by Koch bros.
