While areas within a school facility or school grounds may be considered for naming after individuals, historical events, geographical points, or other instances suitable for public properties, the use of plaques, memorial gardens, benches, and the like are favored for this purpose.
Specific guidelines to be followed in submitting nominations for naming of school properties:
a) Nominal financial expense may be incurred by the school department.
b) minations must be submitted by school-based or community-based groups.
c) Individuals so nominated must have rendered exemplary and extraordinary service to the school department or the community.
d) Nominations should be submitted to the Superintendent who will forward the nominations to the School Committee.
e) School Committee approval is required prior to the naming of any school property or the placement of plaques or construction of monuments or edifices on school property.
