San Antonio's NEISD shutters three school campuses as $39 million budget deficit looms

Northeast Independent School District's trustees voted Monday to shutter three schools as declining enrollment, lack of state funding and heightened expenses wreak havoc on the district's bottom line. The board, grappling with a decline of 12,000 students over the past decade, voted 7-0 to approve the closures of Driscoll Middle School, Wilshire Elementary School and Clear Springs Elementary School. All will shut down before the beginning of the 2025-2026 school year.
