LEE COUNTY, Fla. – We should find out Thursday which name for the new high school in Gateway is the most popular.

Last month, the Lee County School District asked for name suggestions for the school. They narrowed the suggestions down to four finalists, and did an online survey so people could vote for their favorite.

The options were Edison, Gateway, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Gabriela Mistral High.

The results will be shared with the school board Thursday night, and they'll choose the name at their meeting Tuesday.

The 55-acre school is set to open in August of 2021.
