Goose Creek board weighing in the names for the new junior school


In 2019, the voters have voted in favor of the sixth junior school that will sit next to Goose Creek Memorial High School. Discussions have started on the new name for junior school. This will be an agenda item in the upcoming school board meeting. I've asked the School Board President Agustin Loredo III, what do you expect to see happen and how are you feeling about the discussions? "I have to wait until the May meeting. Looking forward to the discussion with the board," he said.





There were certain requirements that were needed to be met; the school name nominations had to include three paragraphs from the nominator explaining why they feel the school should bear the name along with biographical data.  









The names submitted that met the requirements are A. David Sherron, Billie Lynn Hinton, Clyde Lee Henderson, Edward Franklin “E.F.” Green, Hattie Dalcour, Henrietta Lacks, Hugh Echols Jr., James Cunningham, Merla Kramer, and Sam Houston. 





Booker T. Washington, Coastal Community, Eva Bradford, Fred Hartman, Goose Creek Centennial, Goose Creek Junior School, Howard E. Brunson, Red Adair, Sam Houston East, and Spc. Keith E. Grace Jr., did not meet the nomination requirements.





Of course, we will be reporting any developments to this story as they happen.
