gee, that is original. I think they could have done better than naming it after some small two-lane road. Oh well.

least you will be able to see if the english classes are any good at those schools, if the student can pronounce and spell it without any difficulty.

Makes you wonder if the new elem school in IT will be Poplin Road Elementary, LOL

Actually, I think I just read that, yes, it will be Poplin Elementary.

Congrats Berry, you are officially the first one to mispell the new name .

I wish it was named anything but Cuthbertson. I joked w/ my wife when we first looked in the area that we could not live off that street because I couldn't pronounce the name. Life is funny sometimes because not only do I live off the road but my kids will go to the school.

I had suggested the name Old Hickory since that was Andrew Jackson's nickname. I feel like Daffy Duck every time I have to say Cuthbertson........thuffering thukatash.
