The Round Rock ISD Board of Trustees approved the name for the district's 32nd elementary school during its board meeting Thursday night. The board voted unanimously to accept the citizen's school naming committee's recommendation to name the school in honor of Linda Herrington who was a longtime district employee.
Herrington served as a teacher at several campuses before being named the district’s first female secondary school principal at Grisham Middle School in 1987. She also opened the second Hopewell Middle School in 2001 where she served as principal until her retirement from public education in 2003. Linda Herrington passed away on Oct. 9, 2010.
The new campus is located in the Paloma Lake subdivision and will open in Aug. 2011.
