Texas’s LewisvilleThe board of directors of the Lewisville Independent School District decided to eliminate five elementary campuses as a result of declining enrollment and financial issues.
In several school districts in North Texas, the situation has remained the same. Additionally, parents, students, instructors, and support staff at the impacted schools are never happy to hear this news.
Owen Elementary, Creekside Elementary, Garden Ridge Elementary, Highland Village Elementary, and Polser STEM Academy are among the schools that will close.
A vote to update school enrollment boundaries was also taken by the board.
Parents and a few students from two of the targeted schools begged the trustees to keep them open during a school board meeting last month.
The 2025–2026 academic year would mark the start of the closures.
