What's in a name? A lot, apparently. A Jacksonville, Florida school board is considering changing the name of its Nathan B Forrest High School because it was named after the first Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan. I am sure, once upon a time, the folks whose children attended the school thought that was an awesome idea. Clearly it's time for a change. It's understandable that they would opt for something more politically correct. But this got us thinking about other educational institutions with unfortunate titles — and boy are there a lot. Take a look at the 9 worst school names of all time.
What other awful school names have you heard of?
Pansy Kidd Middle School
With Pansy Kidd on their team jerseys, can you imagine the kind of ribbing they get from the opposing players?
Universidad de Morón
Yea, that's just what you want on your resume.
Weed High
Definitely gives new meaning to the term "high school."
Climax-Shelly School
A learning center where everyone gets a happy ending?
Cockermouth School
Whoever came up with that name must have been a total d**k.
Te Puke High School
Biggest perk: every locker comes with its own barf bag.
Hooker Elementary School
When you think about the fact that it's the oldest profession, this is kind of like studying the classics.
