(ALBEMARLE COUNTY, Virginia)—Members of the Jack Jouett Middle School community are being asked to share their views about the name of their school through an online survey that became active today. The survey, which will close on Thursday, May 27, asks participants if they favor the school’s current name or have suggestions for a new one.
The survey is part of a school naming review being conducted by a 16-member community advisory committee in accordance with a division-wide policy. The policy requires a community review of all schools in the division that are named for an individual to ensure those school names reflect the division’s four values of excellence, young people, community, and respect.
