Background
During the Nov. 2, 2015, board dialogue meeting, the Board discussed the possibility of name changes, including the process and current policy. Following this meeting, the Board Policy Committee discussed policy changes to allow more flexibility in campus- or district-initiated name changes, and to clarify language on historical names.
At the Nov. 23, 2015, regular board meeting, the board adopted revisions to Policy CW(LOCAL), Naming Facilities.
On Jan. 26, the Lee Elementary School Campus Advisory Council held a public meeting to discuss changing the name of the campus. The CAC voted unanimously to recommend that the board change the name of the school, subject to further input from the community regarding the choice of a new name.
On March 21, the trustees were notified and discussed the Lee CAC request.
