The Washougal School District is seeking nominations for names for its new elementary school. The deadline to submit suggestions is Jan. 20.
“We have had more than 110 community members participate by sharing their ideas for the new school’s name,” said Patricia Boles, WSD assistant superintendent. “There is still time to get more suggestions in. We’d love as many as we can get.”
The School Facilities Naming Recommendation Committee, under the leadership of Boles, is charged with conducting the search for names and then narrowing down the list to three to five recommendations. The Washougal School Board will make the final decision.
An electronic name nomination survey is available at www.washougal.k12.wa.us.
A paper survey is available at the WSD office at 4855 Evergreen Way in Washougal for individuals who do not have internet access. All recommendations must include a short description of why this name should be considered.
