The Rockwall ISD Board of Trustees’ Facility Naming Committee is now accepting nominations for the naming of elementary school 14 located at 2186 Trophy Drive in Heath, Texas. The new school is scheduled to open in August 2017.
RISD’s school naming policy allows schools to be named after:
* An individual who has made a significant contribution to society and/or education whose name shall lend prestige and status to an institution of learning
* An individual who has served the RISD or the local RISD community, especially in service to children, and whose virtues or characteristics will serve as role models to students, staff and the community
* A district property donor or benefactor or his/her family members
