An old initiative of the Ministry of Education, already in 2008, is starting to take shape recently. The 8th Primary School of Nicaea, for example, was recently named &#8220;Georges Sarri&#8221; after the author of children&#8217;s books, while the name of the Cypriot hero Evagoras Pallikaridis was chosen for the Oreokastro in Thessaloniki. It was preceded by the renaming of the 91st Primary School of Athens to &#8220;Mikis Theodorakis&#8221;, and the 3rd Gymnasium of Patras to &#8220;Nikos Teboneras&#8221;, the teacher who had been murdered in the same place. The process of naming is not a simple matter, because the Teachers&#8217; Associations of each school group that make the proposals often choose the same names, usually those related to local history. How many schools in Crete are called &#8220;Eleftherios Venizelos&#8221; and how many in Lesbos are called &#8220;Odysseas Elytis&#8221;? On the contrary, in small places, such as Amorgos, the choice of Nikos Gatsos, who wrote the poem of the same name, is rather a one-way street. such as the proposal to give the name of the principal of a school. The idea, however, as a whole is interesting, especially if the students also participate in the process. A propos, for the 1st Lyceum of Veroia, I recommend Dimitrios Vikelas, one of the protagonists of the revival of the contemporary Olympic Games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Christos Zabounis There are also &#8220;eccentricities&#8221;.
