Oh, boy. Did they have any student reps? What on earth are they thinking?


Why is Washington-Loving such a problem? It seems like a very strong and progressive choice. I hope it wins.

They have narrowed their list of names to the following:

Washington-Lincoln

Washington-Loving

Washington-Liberty

Washington-Tubman

Washington-Lee (swapping William Lee, a slave who was an assistant to Washington, for Robert E. Lee).


HarrietTubman has been one of my favorite historical figures since I was a little kid but how does Wash-Tub sound?



I’m laughing way harder than I should at this!

Not great.

Washington-Lincoln seems like the best of the lot by a long shot.

I vote for any of those other than Loving.


That reminds me at the controversy at Stuart when one of the names under consideration was Barbara Rose Johns and some parents said the kids wouldn't be able to handle the "BJ" jokes.

Wait, is this the real naming committee suggestion? Is there really no other L that will do? None? Because Loving, even though it's a proper name, should never be in a school's name. It's just asking for so many terrible jokes. Also, what will the mascot be? I shudder to think.

I wonder what other names the committee came up with. Theo e for the new middle school offered 3 options.
