As reported at the September 28, 2006 Board Meeting, Mr. Neal Hatcher, previous athletic director of Grimsley High School, on behalf of the community, has requested that Grimsley’s Jamieson Stadium concession stand and press box be named in honor of two distinguished individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the Guilford County School system, as well as the community.
Pursuant to our procedure on the naming of schools (FDCA-P), a nomination form and accompanying support documents were provided for review and consideration.
The name proposed is as follows:
John and Ruth Comer Concession and Press Box Facility
The recommended name was posted on the district website for a period of public comment and feedback. There were 28 comments received, all in favor of the proposed name.
RECOMMENDATION: Based on the request of the community and further support through the public comments, the administration recommends the board approve the use of the name John and Ruth Comer Concession and Press Box Facility. If the name is approved, staff will contact the community representative to review the plans for any signage the community effort would provide.
