Saratoga Shores Elementary has 1300 students in the elementary school this year! That is high school levels! They had to add 3 trailers just from last year.

I lived for a long time in Orem, and until people really see the growth and struggles in north Utah county first hand it is difficult to appreciate it.

Alpine finally unfroze their plans to build another elementary school to aleve the overcrowding at Saratoga Shores. I do wonder when the housing crisis is over how they are going to keep up. The only reason Saratoga Shores is ONLY 1300 is because there are LOTS of homes that are vacant and still up for sale.
