The Madison School District has opened a 30-day window for residents to propose new names for Elvehjem and Lindbergh elementary schools.
Community members will have until April 29 to submit proposals for the two schools, the first step in the renaming process.
Submissions must follow the district’s policy on school renaming, and they must also include the proposed name’s significance and connection to Madison. Those interested do not need to live within the district’s boundary to propose a name.
In April, the Madison School Board will create an ad hoc renaming committee for each school made up of 12 members chosen by the board, who will review submissions and recommend possible names.
