The Chesterfield County School Board is picking a name for the new west area middle school — and it wants your help.
The school, which is still under construction on Westerleigh Parkway, will likely be ready for students in fall 2025. The board has provided three names to choose from: Freedom Middle School, Liberty Middle School, and Lincoln Middle School.
The west area middle school is one of two brand-new middle schools in Chesterfield. The other, Falling Creek Middle, welcomed students for the first time on Monday, Aug. 19. Both feature the same three-story design aimed to accommodate up to 1,800 students.
Submit your pick for the new school’s future name by Wednesday, Aug. 28.
