The Calgary Board of Education wants help deciding on a name for its new northwest high school opening in the fall.
The four options are Peter Lougheed, Robert Thirsk, Eric Harvie and Brian Keating.
Lougheed was the premier from 1971 to 1985 and was recently named the top premier in the country.
Thirsk was the first Canadian astronaut to fly a long-duration expedition aboard the International Space Station.
Harvie was a philanthropist who helped create Heritage Park, and played a role in the Glenbow Foundation, Calgary Zoo and Banff Centre.
Keating is the head of conservation outreach at the Calgary Zoo and was recently voted one of the top ten contemporary Calgarians.
