The Hughes School District was closed due to declining enrollment in 2015.[4] The students were consolidated with the West Memphis School District.[5]
Most middle school-aged students moved to West Junior High School, and most high school students were moved to Academies of West Memphis (formerly West Memphis High School). The West Memphis district took possession of the school buildings and then gave them to the Hughes municipal government in 2016. The high school gymnasium was leased at no cost to the chief of police and Hughes High alumnus Deon Lee, who made it into an after-school centre, spending about $3,000 on cleanup.[6]
