flag Wichita Falls ISD to close Jefferson Elementary due to $2.4M shortfall from renovation costs.

flag The Wichita Falls Independent School District plans to close Jefferson Elementary at the end of the 2025-2026 school year due to a $2.4 million budget shortfall, partly from $12 million in renovations to McNiel Junior High School, only $10 million of which was covered by a tax note. flag The district will retain ownership of the Jefferson campus and is opening McNiel Elementary. flag Superintendent Donny Lee warned the closure could force the district to dip into its $57 million rainy day fund, risking a balanced budget. flag A closing ceremony is planned, but no date has been set.
