Help us name our new elementary school!

Our new elementary school being built on the site of Aberdeen Academy needs a name. The school will welcome scholars and staff from Aberdeen Academy and Palmer Elementary when it opens in 2027. Fill out the form below to submit your name idea. Submissions will be accepted through Dec. 19, 2025. A committee will review the submissions to narrow the list for a public vote, before the Board of Education makes a final decision.

Board of Education Policy 4900 provides guidance on what should be considered when naming a school, including historical and cultural significance, accuracy of the name in reflecting the intent and location of the facility, or a person’s contribution to education, to the community or nation. The policy also states that schools should not be named after a living person.
