[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Committee vetoed naming it after a person. I liked Grace hopper too. So you’re stuck with either a location name (and they rejected all of the obvious place names because the nearby places aren’t zoned for the school, thus “gateway”) or an aspiration/quality (“summa”, “innovation”, “Polaris”). I’m glad at least they didn’t go with international. I think Courthouse or Clarendon would have been good since apparently you can’t do Lyon Village since Lyon was a racist jerk. Or why not Rosslyn elementary school? Maybe because it’s not near Rosslyn? Who knows. I guess they did their best.[/quote] I think it's good to move away from naming schools after people. [/quote]
