Construction will begin this fall.
“It’s important that we ask the community to help name this school,” Moyra Baxter, Chairperson of the Board of Education said in a press release. “The name will reflect the area and its residents, which will increase the community’s sense of ownership and identification with the school.”
Until September 29, the public can submit their written suggestions to the School Board Office or participate in an online survey.
