6.17.2026 Citizens' Ad Hoc Relative to Renaming Lindbergh Elementary School

The Madison Board of Education held a Citizens' Ad Hoc Committee meeting on June 18, 2026, focused on the renaming of Lindbergh Elementary School. The meeting primarily served as an orientation and onboarding session for committee members, with discussions on the committee's processes, ethical guidelines, and the timeline for the renaming project. No procurement, contracting, or budget decisions were made during this session. The committee reviewed procedures for scoring name proposals, public comment protocols, and compliance with open meetings law. The meeting also included training on implicit bias, ethics, and Robert's Rules of Order to ensure informed and ethical decision-making throughout the renaming process. Future meetings will involve scoring and selecting new school names, with a final vote anticipated by late July or early August.
