MMSD asks for community input as they consider renaming Madison Memorial High School

MADISON, Wis. The Madison Metropolitan School District is asking for the public’s input on a possible name change for one of its high schools.
The district’s board of education put together a citizens’ committee last month to consider a name change for James Madison Memorial High School after a push from an alumna to change name due to the school’s namesake and former President’s history of owning slaves.
The district has not said they are officially changing the name of the school, but is still collecting input on what the community would like the name to be if they decide to make the change.
Former students look to rename James Madison Memorial High School after Darlene M. Hancock
MADISON, WI (365 Media Foundation, Inc) The late Darlene Hancock was the first African-American female principal for the Madison Metropolitan School District, a champion for education, an advocate for all children and a leader in the Madison community for decades. Now, some of her former students are hoping that when James Madison Memorial High School is renamed, it will be after her.
“There have been so many great candidates that have been brought forward for the potential renaming of Madison Memorial High School, but the reason why Mrs. Hancock should be in consideration, too, is that she didn’t just walk the walk, she talked the talk in terms of education and providing opportunities for children that extended well beyond her days as principal and are still affecting the lives of young people everywhere,” Anthony Brown Jr. tells Madison365.
