Names Approved for Two New Schools
Wednesday, July 21, 2010 at 12:20AM One school about to be built and one longtime campus received new names at Tuesday’s meeting of the Anderson School District Five Board of Trustees.
The new elementary school planned for a location on S.C. Highway 81 near the Sullivan-King Mortuary will be named North Pointe Elementary. The name was chosen from more than 30 names suggested by District Five residents. Trustees said they preferred a name that helps define the location of the school.
The Hanna-Westside Extension Campus also received a new name Tuesday night. Trustees voted to rename the school the Anderson V Career Campus. More than 40 suggested names were received from District Five residents as the board sought to find a name that did a better job of explaining the purpose of the school.
Site development for North Pointe Elementary is continuing. The new school is scheduled to be completed by the beginning of the 2012-2013 school year. It will be the 11th elementary school in the district.
