Fccps High School Renaming Committee Final Report FCCPS HIGH SCHOOL RENAMING COMMITTEE FINAL REPORT Submitted by: The FCCPS High School Renaming Committee Jamie Argento Rodriguez, Chair April 9, 2021 INTRODUCTION The FCCPS High School Renaming Committee firmly holds that the renaming of the high school must be considered as a starting point along the necessary path for change in the City of Falls Church. If accomplished in isolation, changing the name of the high school is an empty gesture. As the School Board considers the names that the committee recommends in this report, we urge and request that the School Board, FCCPS, and the Fall Church City community build on the momentum forged by the renaming effort to create positive outcomes for the students, faculty, residents, and visitors for whom the school is built to serve. The high school name change, and the corresponding elementary school name change, present an opportunity to educate us about the history of Falls Church City, to shine a light on its African-American community and heritage, and to steer us on a course towards inclusion and equity. The committee respectfully submits this report in furtherance of these goals. PROCESS OVERVIEW Committee membership The FCCPS High School Renaming Committee was selected by Superintendent Dr. Peter Noonan in January 2021. The committee’s membership includes 26 members representing a diverse set of experiences. The committee consists of high school students, FCCPS faculty in multiple roles, FCCPS alumni, parents, and community members. The committee’s members are diverse in gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and other important factors that represent the broader Falls Church City community. In addition, members of the committee represent a diversity of perspectives on renaming the FCCPS schools, including members who originally supported and opposed the renaming. The names of the members are included below:* Jamie Argento Rodriguez, Chair Bill Ackerman Komal Bazaz Smith Georgia Brown Katie Clinton Vikki Spencer Ehrlich Lisa M. Gross Eden Heard Allison Hyra 2 Jeff Jordan Kabir Kamboh Edwin Kim Tom Lubnow Andra Popa Kristen Ross Reid Sassman Elliott Smith Frank Spinello Will Stewart Marvin Wooten *Six student representatives (names are not included to protect students’ confidentiality) Committee charge The committee was presented with the following charge from the School Board: Committee Smart Goal: It is the committee’s charge to provide the School Board, by April 13, 2021, five (5) names in no order of rank for the elementary school and five (5) names in no rank order for the high school following the requirements of Policy FFA and Regulation FFA-R. Further, it is encouraged that the committee consider names that go beyond just naming buildings after people and contemplate placemaking and other aspects of the community. Lastly, it is advised that the committee seeks ways to gather public input to support their deliberative process, and those who are members of groups seek input from other members from those groups. Convenings The committee convened six times via Zoom. The meetings were streamed live via the FCCPS YouTube Channel. The recordings of each meeting are available for public viewing. The schedule of meetings is below: ● Meeting #1: February 10, 2021, 7 - 9 pm ● Meeting #2: February 24, 2021, 7 - 9 pm ● Meeting #3: March 10, 2021, 7 - 9 pm ● Meeting #4: March 17, 2021, 7 - 9 pm ● Meeting #5: March 24, 2021, 7 - 9 pm ● Meeting #6: April 7, 2021, 7 - 9 pm 3 Public input. The committee, in conjunction with the FCCPS Elementary School Renaming Committee, promoted a virtual “FCCPS Naming Suggestion Box” to gain input from the public. The “FCCPS Naming Suggestion Box” was shared widely and through multiple outreach efforts, including FCCPS Morning Announcements, principals’ newsletters, PTA newsletters, social media platforms, NextDoor, Falls Church City communications, and the alumni Facebook page and website. Through the “FCCPS Naming Suggestion Box,” the committee received 617 suggestions for the new high school name. Of those suggestions received, 274 were unique suggestions. (Many names repeated.) In addition to the “FCCPS Naming Suggestion Box,” the committee members were encouraged to communicate with their affinity groups and other civic and private organizations in which they participate. Members reported back to the committee about the feedback they received during those communications, which included reactions to potential names under consideration of the committee. Categorization of suggested names. The committee spent time during its early meetings developing the categories of names. The committee created a two-tiered process as described below. Categories Person/ Person/ Places Ideas/ Other Low Priority Ineligible People People values/ because of deceased Recently concept Duplicate names School Board more than 10 deceased of nearby guidelines years schools (DMV radius) Living people Joke responses Animal names Existing names Secondary Factors ● M names ● Local area connections ● Keep those that aren’t absolutely similar but leave open to discussion (Thurgood Marshall, Falls Church City) ● Historical significance 4 Following clarification from the FCCPS attorney, names of people who are recently deceased (less than ten years), were moved to the “Ineligible because of School Board guidelines” category. Preparation of names. As the process for preparing the names rapidly evolved, the committee added a meeting to concentrate on narrowing the field of names originally submitted by the public and by members of the committee. During Meeting #3, the committee narrowed the list of more than 274 names to a list of 47 names across the categories and factors identified by the committee. During Meeting #4, the committee further narrowed the list to 18 names. These names were presented to the School Board at its work session on March 23, 2021. After lengthy and in-depth small and large group discussions regarding the emerging names during Meeting #5, the committee determined that it would be helpful to determine the depth of support for the 18 names shared with the School Board on March 23, 2021. Using a Google Form generated with the assistance of FCCPS staff, the committee members were able to submit their support for up to 5 names. Through that process the committee was able to identify five names that generated significant support from members. Names beyond the five submitted to the School Board received support from some members of the committee as well. Summaries including the justifications for the final five names and the names that were not included in the final list are provided below. The names are listed in alphabetical order and are not ranked. NAMES SUBMITTED TO THE SCHOOL BOARD IN CONSIDERATION OF RENAMING THE FCCPS HIGH SCHOOL MERIDIAN HIGH SCHOOL Justification: Small town school, global name. A meridian is a feature of the globe, and we aim to teach students to be global citizens. Our student body is a mix of 'lifers' of our little city and students who contribute their experiences from living in other places around the world. We promote students' instincts to explore the world and their opportunities in our global community. We pride ourselves on our implementation of the International Baccalaureate program and our earned status as an IB World School. 5 In addition, this name has local significance. Falls Church City sits on the historical corner of our nation's capital, with the boundary stone found in a park on Meridian Street. The boundary stones, or “markers,” are all 10 miles apart, delineating the original boundaries of Washington, D.C., surveyed in 1791 by 2 men, Andrew Ellicott and Benjamin Banneker, a free African-American man from Washington, D.C. The westernmost point of the diamond is marked on the map as "West Falls Church," which exists today on Meridian Street. Meridian Street got its name because it follows the line of that diamond, marking the original line between Virginia & D.C., which is now the line between Falls Church City and Arlington. According to the map attached the location of the White House is essentially at the center of the original diamond. The area that is now Arlington was retroceded back to Virginia in 1847. More information can be found in this article about the DC Boundary Stones: https://www.arlnow.com/2013/09/19/d-c-boundary-stones-a-silent-part-of-arlington-histor y/ Meridian also begins with the letter “M.” Concerns/Opposition: There is some concern that people will not understand why “Meridian” relates to Falls Church City. It will take time for students, faculty, and community members to adjust while people explain and learn about the meaning of the name. Also, Andrew Ellicott Park, where the marker is located, has an Arlington address, as the street is named Arizona Street in Arlington and Meridian Street in Falls Church City. Further, there was some concern that it may remind people of the hotel, “Le Meridien” and the Meridian condominium complexes located in Arlington, VA. 6 METROPOLITAN HIGH SCHOOL Justification: From Metropolis (/mɪˈtrɒpəlɪs/) - a large city or conurbation which is a significant economic, political, and cultural center for a country or region, and an important hub for regional or international connections, commerce, and communications. ● Recognizes our geography as part of the greater Washington, D.C. metropolitan area which clearly matches the definition above – and includes the local geo-political history that the western cornerstone of the original boundary of the District of Columbia and the southwest face of that diamond shape defines the border between the City of Falls Church and Arlington County. ● Capitalizes on the various derivatives of the word metropolitan in use including: ○ Metro – the high school sits next to the West Falls Church Metro Station – a major and modern transportation hub (which is both public and mass transit which have overlays with equity/access/and greener transport). ○ “The Met” (possible use for the fine arts spaces and groups in the new facility).

  • Libraries, Technology, and the Route to Relevance Facilities Master
    Volume 5, Issue 2 Get the latest industry news and trends: ​ ​ ​ Libraries, Technology, And The Route To Relevance By better aligning their services to community needs, they can target inequities and support economic opportunity Cameron Chavira Like the footings beneath the shelves they line, books have traditionally formed the foundation of the services that public libraries offer their communities. However, with the shift from print to digital publishing, libraries face a battle in maintaining their status as bastions for learning, community engagement, workforce development and citizenship. This challenge has not gone unnoticed by local-government budget-writers, who are increasingly likely to cut funding for libraries in favor of more "necessary" departments and programs. Nevertheless, library professionals remain hopeful that technology will help moderate inequities in areas such as access to information, educational achievement and economic opportunity. But to successfully leverage technology to this effect, we must make sure that those who make funding decisions see libraries not as stuffy stacks of yellowing pages but as modern community learning centers. This can be achieved through thoughtful assessment and partnership. Here's how: First, libraries need to identify service gaps by evaluating the needs of their users against the services they provide. Technology can be a great help here, given the variety of data-driven mapping tools now available to help shape precise community profiles. These tools, typically employed for purposes of planning and zoning, offer libraries a detailed dissection of a neighborhood's demographics, including education level, family composition and transit information. Once libraries have this profile defined, they can assess how their services align with the community's needs.

  • George Mason Cheerleading
    Fall 2012 George Mason Cheerleading Dear Parents and Students, Your son/daughter has expressed an interest in becoming a member of the George Mason High School cheerleading squad for the fall 2012 season. It is very important that you and your student share the responsibility. Cheerleading is a sport that requires extensive time and dedication and all members are expected to commit fully. If together you feel it is too much to ask, encourage your student not to try out. However, if you feel the commitment can be made, please support and encourage them in every way ☺ If your student is selected for the GMHS cheerleading squad, his/her work schedules, doctor appointments, vacations, etc., MUST be coordinated so that they do NOT interfere with our scheduled events. It is vital that your student attend all practices, camps, games, etc. Cheerleading is a team activity and the absence of a team member does not only affect your student, but the team as a whole. Please consider this before you allow you son/daughter to try out for the team. My goal as a coach is to encourage the following qualities in every cheerleader: good sportsmanship, good manners, mature and responsible behavior, cooperative attitude and an awareness of fulfilling one’s obligations. I hold VERY HIGH EXPECTATIONS of our cheerleaders and expect them to be model students, as they are being chosen to represent George Mason High School. You and the student will need to read through this packet and complete the following for clinics/tryouts: • VHSL Physical • Online Application at www.surveymonkey.com/s/GMCheerFall12 • Tryout Permission Slip • Impact Testing Permission Slip o Due to the summer schedule, all participants will complete the Impact Test the week of clinics/tryouts.
