Hogwarts, Zoolander among entries for new Utah school names

PROVO, Utah (AP) — Thousands of submissions have been entered online to name new schools in Eagle Mountain and Lehi.

The Daily Herald reported Thursday that some ideas aimed to honor people, some drew inspiration from geographical features in the area and some went straight for the humor.

If one resident had their way, the new Eagle Mountain high school would have been called The Derek Zoolander School for Kids Who Can’t Read Good and Want to Do Other Stuff Good Too.

And, of course, another resident wanted the school to be named Hogwarts High School.

The Alpine School District Board of Education won’t be considering either of those names for the high school, though. They’ll decide between Eagle Peak High School, Cedar Valley High School and Lake Mountain High School on Tuesday.
