The Turlock Unified School District Board of Trustees on Tuesday received information regarding a request to name the Turlock High School West Gym, which is currently undergoing renovations to modernize the building. Assistant Superintendent of Business Services Mike Trainor stood before the Board and read a letter from the Louise Marchant Legacy Committee, asking that the newly-remodeled girls’ gymnasium be named after the late Turlock woman. “Louise Marchant’s legacy of dedication and enthusiasm for Turlock High never wavered and was strong and enduring throughout her life and carried over into the entire community of Turlock,” said Trainor, reading from the letter.
