Prince George's County Board of Education May Name Upper Marlboro School After Obama - washingtonpost.com

Prince George's County Board of Education May Name Upper Marlboro School After Obama - washingtonpost.com: President Obama's name would grace a new Prince George's County elementary school a few miles from the White House under a proposal scheduled for a vote tonight, barely five months after he took office.

If the Prince George's Board of Education approves the plan, Barack Obama Elementary School would be the first in the Washington region named after the president. The school is under construction outside the Capital Beltway in Upper Marlboro and is slated for completion by year's end.
