ALBEMARLE COUNTY, Va. (WVIR) - The list of possible names for Albemarle Countyâs newest charter school will get cut from 10 to three after a community public meeting Monday night.
Sixty percent of more than 600 replies to an online survey completed last week showed a preference to keep the name of Murray Community School.
This is the latest review of a county school named after an individual.
âWeâre a unique schoolâ said committee chair Stephanie Passman. âWe have a great mission of what we do within our school division and thereâs been a call for not having to explain our name, so maybe having something in the name that gives a sense of what it is that makes us unique and special in our school division.â
