Original Research by School Decision on Farris Early Childhood Ctr
Farris Early Childhood Center no longer operates. The school, located in Wichita Falls, Texas, has closed and is not currently serving students.
Enrollment data, academic performance metrics, staff information, and student demographic details are not available because the school is not in operation. State testing results do not apply, as the school served only early childhood grades, which fall outside the tested grade range in Texas.
The school was a regular public school, not a charter or magnet campus, operated by Wichita Falls ISD. It was housed at 710 Burkburnett Road in Wichita Falls.
For families in the Wichita Falls area seeking early childhood programs, the district's current offerings would be worth investigating directly with Wichita Falls ISD. The district has undergone significant recent infrastructure investment, including the opening of two new high schools (Memorial and Legacy) in August 2024, built through a bond measure approved in 2020. That modernization effort reflected the district's commitment to facility renewal, though it centered on the secondary level rather than early childhood services.
Wichita Falls itself is a mid-sized North Texas city with a mixed economy anchored by Sheppard Air Force Base, healthcare, manufacturing, aerospace supply, and education.

Population has remained relatively stable in recent years, though new housing development is occurring on the city's edges.
