On Tuesday, January 20, the Arlington ISD Board of Trustees voted to close Blanton Elementary at the end of this school year. This decision was not made lightly and reflects the Board’s commitment to ensuring that Arlington ISD campuses are thriving learning environments for all students in the district. Trustees did not make any decision on attendance boundaries, transportation, or special programming.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLearn More\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t

\n\tYesterday was our last day with students at Blanton Elementary.

Before the building says goodbye, the halls were walked one last time to capture the classrooms, the memories, the people, and the feeling of a place that meant so much to so many.

For generations, Blanton was more than a school. It was a second home filled with laughter, learning, friendships, growth, and countless little moments that mattered more than we realized at the time.

These halls celebrated little victories, carried big dreams, and helped shape generations of students, staff, and families.

Thank you to every student, teacher, staff member, family, and community member who helped make Blanton special through the years.

Once an Eagle, always an Eagle. \ud83d\udc99

\n\tWe were honored to welcome newly elected District 5 City Councilwoman Brittney Garcia-Dumas to Blanton Elementary today for Teacher Appreciation Week.

She spent time visiting classrooms, reading to our students, and showing appreciation for the incredible work our teachers do each day. Our students loved hearing her stories and spending time with a community leader who truly values education and the people who make schools special.

Thank you, Councilwoman Dumas, for taking the time to invest in our students, encourage our teachers, and support the Blanton community. \ud83d\udc99\ud83e\udd85
