As of Aug. 1, Prince Andrew High School will be renamed Woodlawn High School, to reflect the name of the street and subdivision where the school is located.
The school was named after Prince Andrew in 1960, the year he was born, but a recent sex scandal involving a 17-year-old girl and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein led the school to distance itself from the royal. Andrew was accused by a woman of sexually abusing her while she travelled with Epstein in 2001 when she was 17, and the prince reached a deal that called for him to make a substantial donation to his accuser’s charity.
Principal Craig Campbell says the name of the school should reflect the values of the school community. A number of potential names were circulated, and Woodlawn High School was most popular by a wide margin.— With files from The Associated Press.

TDotGinger Took them long enough! 🤦♂️
Take the names Queen, Royal, Commonwealth etc off every building in Canada/ no Royal Portraits either - Charles just got 1M Euros in a suitcase too- lies, corruption and coverups run rampant in that Unelected body too
He is probably saying, 'Where the F is Nova Scotia'
I went to a school named Prince Charles..can't remember where tho
Good idea- don’t name things after people.

Are we ok canceling this? I think so eh.

Paedophile* he is a human trafficking paedophile. Don't downplay it. It makes you complicit
Took their time didn’t they
Just virtue signaling. Andrew was NEVER charged with ANY crime PERIOD. He’s totally innocent
Pierre Trudeau’s name should be removed from all airports and schools.
Is Royal KY Jelly being rebranded too?
This is the reason I am 100% against naming things after Royals, politicians and other humans no matter who. We have many things named after people who don't deserve anything such as known racists, corrupts and criminals. If I have the power I will remove every single name....
Do you mean sexual assault and his involvement in the sex trafficking of minors? Because a 'sex scandal' is something very very different. DO BETTER.
All things named after royalty should be changed- They are all criminals. That’s how one becomes Royal- murder and slavery.
Good! The guy is sickening. 🤢
Soon all businesses, buildings, streets will be just numbers lol
Why did they name it after him in the first place
See! stop naming things after people
Groomers draw the line with Prince Andrew. Hilarious.

Prince Andrew is a good person and has all of his recommended mRNA vaccinations. Prince Andrew stands with the Ukraine and all other current things. Thank you for supporting Prince Andrew. 🤴 🇺🇦
