NEENAH, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — What should Neenah’s middle school be called? District residents have the opportunity to weigh in.
When the new Neenah High School is built, the current high school will transform into a middle school for grades 5-8. Shattuck Middle School will close and Horace Mann Middle School will become an elementary school. The change is planned for the 2023-24 school year.
Five name finalists were chosen by current students and staff in grades 5-8. Those living in the district boundaries can vote for their favorite in an online survey. The finalists are:
- Neenah Middle School
- Memorial Middle School
- Riverside Middle School
- Rocket Middle School
- Shattuck Academy
Suggestions that did not make the final list were: Charles B. Clark Middle School, Council Tree Middle School, Katherine Johnson Middle School, Launch Middle School Academy, Marigen Carpenter Middle School, Mathilda Krueger Middle School, The Bridge Academy, Vel Phillips Middle School, Winnebago Rapids Middle School and Winnebago Shores Middle School.
The survey closes Jan. 21.
