The community was invited to submit ideas for naming Elementary School #6, which is currently under construction to open next fall of 2016. From November 9 - December 6, all were invited to submit a nomination. And, people could submit more that one name suggestion, pertaining to the following nomination criteria:

The survey is now closed.
