JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Staff and parents at seven Duval County schools are being informed this week that their schools are under consideration for closure at the end of this year and consolidation to other schools for the 2025-26 school year.

The changes are part of the latest version of Duval County Public Schools’ Master Facility Plan.

The plan is not yet final, but six elementary schools are being alerted to these possible changes:

  1. Annie R. Morgan students into Biltmore
  2. Kings Trail students into Beauclerc
  3. Don Brewer students into Merrill Road
  4. Susie Tolbert students into S.P. Livingston
  5. George Washington Carver students into Rufus E. Payne
  6. Hidden Oaks students into Cedar Hills

On top of those schools, the Young Men and Women’s Leadership Academy program at Eugene Butler Middle School would also close under the latest version of the plan. The district’s Bridge to Success middle and high school programs, which are currently housed at St. Claire Evans Elementary and Henry Kite Elementary would then consolidate at Butler.
