SUMMARY: The Plano ISD School Board unanimously approved the closure of four schools: Davis Elementary, Foreman Elementary, and Armstrong and Carpenter Middle Schools, effective at the start of the 2025 school year. This decision, driven by declining enrollment with some schools half-empty, is anticipated to save the district around $5 million annually. Despite emotional pleas from community members, the board emphasized that the closures were based on enrollment data. Staff will be relocated without job loss, and officials will reconfigure bus routes and redraw school zones. This follows a trend of budget-driven school closures in North Texas, seen in districts like Richardson and Irving ISD.

The Plano ISD board of trustees approved a plan to close four schools amid declining enrollment.

SUMMARY: Tropical Storm Barl is expected to intensify into a Category 1 hurricane by tomorrow afternoon, affecting the Texas coast between Corpus Christi and Houston, near Port Lavaca by Monday morning. With reduced wind shear, the storm’s center may shift northward, altering its forecast track. A hurricane warning is in effect along the central Gulf Coast, with tropical storm-force winds beginning Sunday and increasing. Significant rainfall is forecast, with 5-10 inches north of Corpus Christi and up to 1.5 feet in isolated areas. Eastern and southeastern counties could see 4-7 inches of rain. Winds and rain will persist into Monday, potentially causing flooding before exiting eastward.
