(Sioux Falls, SD) — A Sioux Falls elementary school will be closing next year despite community pushback. The Bishop O’Gorman Catholic Schools Board of Directors recently sent a letter to parents stating that Christ the King Elementary will close at the end of the 2025-26 school year. This comes after the community provided one-thousand signatures for a petition to appeal the board’s decision, but the decision was upheld during a recent vote. BOCS says the final decision was not made lightly. Current students at the location will be absorbed into the district’s remaining elementary schools, if necessary.
