Federal funds for private schooling, a Coloradan held by the Taliban, and Denver’s unrealized Scottish dream
Description
Colorado parents could soon be allowed to use federal education dollars for private school tuition and other expenses , a shift supporters say opens the door to new possibilities. Then, a Colorado family pleads for help as they wait for answers about a loved one being held by the Taliban. Plus, in Colorado Wonders, we tour a corner of Denver where developers once imagined building a Scottish-style village, and the traces of that vision that still remain.
