Save the first school lot down to the bin. Bulldoze the first school and re-place the lot. Place the second school either by using a lot you have saved down to the bin or start with a fresh lot and place the building from Build/Buy Community Objects (then landscape to taste, add a playground, parking lot...it's more work that way of course). All without leaving Edit Town.
The reason both schools have to be off the map at the same time is that otherwise the game will ignore the second one. It's okay to bulldoze a community lot when sims are on it, they will just be transported home. Sometimes it takes a couple of tries to get this right.
By EA standard, sim kids and teens will re-register at the school that is closest to their home lot. All scholastic performance across town will be reset to 0 (Grade C). It may take a couple of sim days of play for things to sort themselves out. NRaas MasterController with the MC Cheats module can be used to re-establish non-zero school performance but you have to know how well kids were doing or failing to do this much like as with job performance. Sims in the Education career (teachers) will lose their jobs; those and their job performance can be reset with MC as well.
If you want the schools to be restricted in some way, such as one elementary and one high school, or one for males and one for females, one for rich kids, one for poor, etc., then NRaas StoryProgression's Lot Options and castes must be used together with the NRaas GoHere mod.
