VicMan Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 https://www.edline.net/pages/Galveston_ISD/...d_on_the_Street Right now GISD's configuration on Galveston Island for elementary and middle school includes: * 5 PK-5 schools * 2 PK-6 schools (San Jacinto, a formerly operated K-6, closed recently) * 2 6-8 schools * 1 7-8 school Three middle schools for a small, small island with an increasingly wealthy population? GISD apparently does not believe that makes a lot of sense. Well, GISD decided to close Alamo ES after 2008 and convert it to a multipurpose center. As for the remaining elementary schools, all would include Kindergarten through 4th grade. Weis Middle School would become the zoned 5-6 campus. Central Middle School would become the zoned 7-8 campus. Austin Middle School (the 7-8) would become a magnet 5-8 campus. As a note: * Residents on the Bolivar Peninsula in GISD are zoned to Crenshaw Elementary and Middle School, a PK-8 school * ALL GISD residents are zoned to Ball High School 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumber2 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 The Galveston Daily News Saturday edition quotes the GISD superintendent as saying that Rosenberg Elementary may have to close in two years if the declining enrollment trends continue.

VicMan Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 Note: Alamo ES is already gone. I'm not sure which school it was merged into. I should e-mail GISD and ask.I know that the kids at San Jacinto ES were scattered all across Galveston, and the attendance boundary switched to Rosenberg ES.
