Wondering how to edit this U.S. County Entry?
The WikiProject U.S. Counties standards might help.

Education

I've been working on improving the article on Spotsylvania County Public Schools. I've also tried transcluding the lead information from the schools article into this one. I believe that the detailed information (list of schools, etc) can be removed from this article in lieu of the article on schools. 14:43, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

I propose that the list of schools be deleted but, now that I look at it, the information about schools NOT under the auspices of Spotsylvania County Public Schools will have to remain (private schools, higher education). Wikipelli Talk 14:46, 21 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Etymology

edit

I was trying to figure out the source of the name. A little web search suggests that it's a pun on Alexander Spotswood (sylvania = forest = wood). I didn't find an RS, though. Would be interesting to add to the article if sourceable. --Trovatore (talk) 21:48, 17 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
