The Bakersfield City School District is renaming Cesar E. Chavez Elementary following sexual abuse allegations, seeking a new name with historical significance and community impact. Parents and staff can submit suggestions by May 22nd, with the board of education making the final decision. The district is interested in honoring farmworkers and agricultural families, as the community grapples with the collapse of Chavezs legacy.
