Task Force ready to send recommendation to School Board
The New Schools Task Force, which has met on a regular basis over the past couple of months, wrapped up its business Thursday night.
By a 12-1 vote, the Task Force decided to configure the new elementary school in New Prague as a K-5 building. That decision will be its recommendation to the School Board at the regularly scheduled April 25 meeting.
Also discussed last night were proposals on how to name the new schools. The five proposals offered were: 1) include the school location in the name; 2) hold a general naming contest; 3) hold a community-based vote; 4) use heritage-reflected names; 5) have different themes at different grade levels.
No decisions on naming were made last night, only proposals were discussed.
