Compton school is named for Barack Obama, a first in California
First there were Obama T-shirts and bumper stickers. Now there's a Compton charter school named after the president-elect.The former Qued Charter Elementary School changed its name to the Barack Obama Charter School earlier this week. The original name was always intended as a placeholder -- "Qued" is a mash-up of "quality" and "education" -- and parents at the school overwhelmingly wanted the school to be named after Obama. The board approved the change unanimouslyPosted by: Fred 2009-01-17 |
