Naming Facilities

Rains ISD’s Board of Trustees approved a process for considering facility names; whether it be for a full facility or a portion of a facility.  This process for naming facilities is outlined in CW(LOCAL) policy (i.e., Naming Facilities).  The term “facility” refers to a new or existing school or Districtwide complex owned and operated by the district.  The term “portion of a facility” includes a building, library, media center, auditorium, performing arts center, gymnasium, athletic field, or other portion of a school or support complex or property owned and/or operated by the District. A portion of a facility shall not include individual classrooms.

Nominations for naming facilities shall be made in writing on a form provided by District. This form may be accessed as a printable pdf:

Names may be submitted at any time to the Superintendent through the form provided by the District, but consideration by the Board of Trustees will occur from January to March.  Names submitted in an untimely manner may be considered in future years.
