BULLARD, Texas (KETK) – Bullard ISD has announced that the opening of their new 179,000 square-foot middle school campus has been delayed.
The new campus was originally scheduled to open by August 2025, but due to delays, the district leadership and construction teams announced on Thursday that the new building is now expected to open in January 2026. Students and staff are expected to move into the new campus at the start of the spring semester of the 2025-2026 school year.

According to Bullard ISD, the physical construction of the building is still on pace to be finished on schedule, but infrastructure needs are causing the campus opening to be delayed.
Bullard ISD Superintendent Dr. Jack Lee spoke about the delay and challenges they have had to overcome in order to create the new campus.
'We are incredibly proud of the design and construction of our new middle school campus,' Lee said. 'Unfortunately, no construction project of this size can be completed without challenges arising. Although we have been working on building infrastructure since the design phase of the new campus, we continue to face challenges created by substantial weather delays, utility connections, access to public and private easements, and the road construction at FM2493 and US69.

Dr. Lee said that the district is in contact with everyone involved in the new middle school and is grateful for everyone's support and patience.
'Bullard ISD remains in close communication with all involved parties, and the district looks forward to celebrating the opening of the new Bullard Middle School as soon as it is ready to safely welcome students and staff,' Dr. Lee said. 'We are grateful for the patience, support, and understanding of our parents, staff, and students throughout this process.'

Tom Lee Says V-Shaped Rally Among 'Most Hated' Ever As Market Nears All-Time Highs, Warns Of Possible 'Face-Ripper' Surge
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. Tom Lee, co-founder and Head of Research at Fundstrat Global Advisors, predicts a substantial market rally despite widespread investor skepticism as the S&P 500, tracked by SPDR S&P 500 (NYSE:SPY), trades within 2% of all-time highs. What Happened: Lee wrote on X that 'This remains one of the 'most hated' V-shaped rallies and yet we are within 2% of all-time highs.' He cited short positioning, bear sentiment, and improving macro conditions as catalysts for a possible 'face-ripper rally.' The S&P 500, closed at 5,970.37 on Tuesday, up 0.58%, while the Nasdaq-100 gained 0.79% to 21,662.58. The benchmark index reached an all-time high of 6,152.87 in February. Trending: Start investing with eToro's CopyTrader — . Speaking on CNBC, Lee emphasized the disconnect between market performance and investor sentiment. 'You'd think that with the S&P doing well this week and a great May investors are bullish. They are not,' Lee said. 'In our calls and zooms with portfolio managers many are still cautious because they see tariff risks ahead.' Lee highlighted technical indicators supporting further upside. 'Given the amount of cash on the sidelines, the fact that short interest is going up and we have a quiet week and markets are rallying, I think the risk is now of a substantial leg up rally from here,' he stated. Why It Matters: Regarding tariff concerns, Lee downplayed their economic impact. He estimates a 10% tariff rate would create roughly a 1% GDP effect, comparing it to oil moving from $40 to $80. 'We wouldn't say $80 oil breaks the economy anymore,' Lee noted. The Fundstrat strategist expects the Federal Reserve to remain dovish through 2026 as housing prices decline and deliver deflationary pressure. Housing represented 75% of inflation increases since 2019, according to Lee's analysis. For sector positioning, Lee favors the Magnificent Seven technology stocks alongside financials, industrials, and small caps for the second half of 2025. He views the MAG 7 as 'the first to peak, the first to bottom' during recent market volatility. Lee's bullish outlook contrasts with mounting concerns from JPMorgan Chase Inc. CEO Jamie Dimon and others about potential bond market instability amid rising federal deficits and elevated long-term Treasury yields.

Tesla Shares Climb on Fundstrat Buying Signal
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock jumped 5.9% Friday after Fundstrat's Tom Lee called the recent pullback a good entry point, arguing that Elon Musk's public split with Donald Trump helps the EV maker shed political baggage. Lee told CNBC that disassociating Tesla from MAGA controversies ingratiates Musk with the broader U.S. and global audience, offsetting backlash that drove TSLA's shares down roughly 30% year-to-datemaking it the worst-performing large-cap stock of 2025. Despite that slide, Tesla remains the 10th largest company by market capitalization, thanks in part to Q1 deliveries of 387,000 vehicles and guidance for 1.8 million units in fiscal 2025. Lee noted that while Trump could threaten to cancel Musk-related federal contracts, Tesla's services are too integral to be cut, and he believes the political drama, not just a general EV slowdown, has weighed on the stock. Indeed, broader EV demand has cooled after booms in 2021 and 2022, but Tesla's scaleits 65% gross margin on Model 3 and Y vehicles and expanding energy-storage businessstill offers upside as manufacturing costs decline. Investors seized on Lee's framework, sending TSLA higher even as U.S. EV sales dipped 8% in April amid rising interest rates and supply-chain hiccups. Why It Matters: Today's bounce suggests that, despite headwinds from politics and a softened EV market, analysts see value in Tesla's long-term growth trajectory, production scale and margin profile, making it an attractive entry for contrarian investors betting on a rebound. Investors will be watching Tesla's Q2 delivery figures, due in late July, and any updates on Musk's broader political positioning to gauge whether this rally can extend.
