The committee narrowed down those responses to the ones on the polling form. This is not a vote that will result in a final winner. This will be the first of several polls conducted by the student advisory committee. This is an opportunity for the entire school community to provide their thoughts on potential names. If you have other questions, please contact us through Let's Talk! - https://www.oacsd.org/page/lets-talk
The Google form poll requires an email to ensure that a real person is answering the questions one time only. Your email will not be viewable by any of the committee members. The Google form will be open through Wednesday, May 31, 2023.
