School Name Put Forward

A committee tasked with finding a name for the new elementary school in Fort Frances has put forward its recommendations to the Rainy River District School Board.

It recommending that new school be called either Robert Moore School - a name that attracted 21 submissions from the public - or the East End Waabanong Elementary School - a name the committee says represents the entire school population.

The committee also recommends naming parts of the school in honour of F.H. Huffman and Robert Moore schools which will be closed in the fall.

Trustees are to discuss the issue at their meeting tomorrow night.
