After weeks of controversy, the Inglewood Unified School District has announced that they will permanently close five schools in coming years.

In a video shared on the district's YouTube page, IUSD County Administrator Dr. James Morris disclosed that the following schools will be shutdown:Crozier Junior High School Hudnall TK-6 Elementary School,Highland TK-6 Elementary School,Morningside High School,Kelso TK-6 Elementary School.

While Kelso Elementary is expected to move to the Daniel Freeman/Warren Lane Elementary site, which was previously closed in 2022, the other four schools are slated to be closed by the end of the 2024/25 school year. District officials say that the schools are being closed due to a decline in enrollment over the last two decades. In 2002, IUSD had 18,000 students. In the next decade, they believe their enrollment numbers will drop by about 60% to 6,900 students.
