Summary

John Manning introduced himself as a student and said he was speaking on behalf of classmates, current students and former students to request the board name the James Fawn blacktop after the principal. "I'm John Manning going into 6th grade at Anthony Wayne Middle School," Manning said. "I'm here tonight on behalf of classmates, current found students, and former found students. I'm here to ask the board to name the James Fawn Blackhawk after our amazing principal, mister May."
Manning described the principal's two decades of service and listed personal touches he said the principal brought to the school, including birthday lunches, reading stories to promote character traits, organizing a "bucket brigade" and running a recurring fifth‑grade kickball tournament. He asked the board to "take into consideration" renaming the blacktop in the principal's honor. The transcript records no board vote or response on the request during the meeting.
