The other two names being considered were Magnolia Grove Elementary and Meadowbrook Elementary.
The new building is a relief school for Elon Park Elementary School.
The opening of the 45-classroom school was delayed by a year due to construction and permit issues, the district announced last year. Now, it’s scheduled to open in time for the 2024 to 2025 academic year.
