A North Pole school will get a new name.
The Fairbanks North Star Borough School District Board of education approved a measure Tuesday night to rename of Badger Road Elementary.
Badger Road Elementary is currently named for a convicted pedophile, said Michael O’Brien, a member of school board.
Harry M. Badger admitted to abusing a 10-year-old girl a century ago, historical records show.
The school took up the suggestion during a work session in September.
