The DeSoto Independent School District School Board voted unanimously to approve two district facilities naming nominations during the Jan. 21, 2025, school board meeting. 
The two names submitted and approved for future consideration are as follows:

  • Kathy Goad, former Desoto ISD employee and long serving school board trustee, is recommended for the DeSoto Alternative Education Program facility.
 
  •  Sharon R. Sternes, former school board trustee and noted educational advocate for riguous academics and post-secondary readiness, is recommended for the district’s collegiate academy.  

 

The naming recommendations recognize the contributions of both Goad and Sternes to the district’s educational community.   

 

The recent approvals were the first in the district’s newly implemented facilities’ naming process which will include an additional step to be addressed during the upcoming February 2025 board meeting.
The district accepts and reviews submissions for facility naming on an annual basis according to the stated timeline.
