Harry S. Truman High School (Independence) → Truman High School (Independence) — School was named after the Truman Family, and not specifically Harry S. Truman. The correct name of the school is Truman High School. [1] --Deltadwn (talk) 16:15, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
- Support It's kind of vague as to the particular reason the school was named as such, but press materials do indicate that only the name "Truman" is used.[2] Ham Pastrami (talk) 20:59, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

History
[edit]Several Democratic Presidents and presidential candidates had a tradition of visiting Truman during election years. Jimmy Carter in 1980 was one. (I covered this for KJLA Radio.) Can other people confirm other candidates? --Richard Burkard-- — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:2950:4F30:852B:C7B7:384B:5A3D (talk) 19:32, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
