City officials are working to plan safe routes for students to get to McAuliffe Elementary School, Heritage Elementary School and Briarhill Middle School next school year.
The backstory
Lewisville ISD trustees approved the closure of Highland Village Elementary School in December for the 2025-26 school year due to declining enrollment.
“We know a lot of our students in Highland Village and Lewisville will be either going to McAuliffe or Heritage Elementary, and so we wanted to learn how they will be traveling to school to help us plan for safe routes, whether it's a crossing guard needed at a specific location, or better striping, or more information on the trails,” Director of Communications Laurie Mullens said.
