Charles Herbert Flowers High School is a comprehensive science and technology magnet school located in Springdale, Prince George's County, Maryland. United States. It is part of the Prince George's County School System. Its principal is Gorman Brown. Flowers High School's motto is "Mecca of Excellence." The school's Alma Mater, "A Mecca of Excellence," was written by R&B singer and 2004 graduate Patrice Jones and Helena Jones ==History== The school opened its doors in August 2000, for only 9th and 10th grade students. At that time, it was the first new high school in 26 years constructed in the Prince George's County Public School system. Designed by architectural firm Grimm + Parker, the three-floor, building was designed in four core quadrants for performing arts, athletics and health, sciences and technology, and humanities, connected by a "Main Street" corridor containing administrative offices, art classrooms, student government and guidance offices. The Prince George's County Board of Education considered several names for the school, but ultimately settled on long-time Glenarden resident Charles Herbert Flowers, a well-known trainer of the Tuskegee Airmen. In doing so, the school board waived its policy for naming schools posthumously. The Board has only made this exception twice; first for Mr. Flowers in 2000 and second, when naming Barack Obama Elementary School in 2008. Mr. Flowers appeared to celebrate the school's opening.〔"(Mr. Charles Herbert Flowers )," ''Charles Herbert Flowers High School''〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Charles Herbert Flowers High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
