The Richland School District has finalized the purchase of a 52-acre site within the Badger Mountain South development. The land, located near the I-82 and Dallas Road interchange, will serve as the future home of new schools to support the growing South Richland community.

The $1.74 million sale, completed in partnership with Nor Am Investment, reflects the long-term vision for Badger Mountain South—a master-planned community with walkable access to essential services like education, parks, and healthcare. More details on the school development timeline will be shared as the district moves forward with planning.
