Name Change Coming: Lee High School

The Fairfax County School Board voted unanimously Thursday to begin a formal discussion about changing the name of Robert E. Lee High School in Springfield, Virginia.
The vote is the beginning of a lengthy process required to change the name of a Virginia high school. A new name must be selected within guidelines set by the state.
A formal hearing on the topic is scheduled for February, but a date has not been set yet.
NBC Washington spoke to students from the majority minority school about why they feel the change is necessary.
“The confederacy wouldn’t have wanted to see that many students of color being educated in that kind of institution, and here’s the confederate leader in that school,” said junior Kimberly Boateng.
Robert E. Lee High School could become the third school to shed the name of a Confederate general. J.E.B. High School and Washington-Lee High School previously changed their names to Justice High School and Washington-Liberty High School, respectively.
In March, Fairfax County removed Confederate leaders’ names from local parks.
Robert E. Lee was the commander of the Confederate army during the American Civil War.
In a related move, the Virginia House advanced legislation to scrap the state’s Lee-Jackson holiday celebrating two Confederate generals.
The Democratic-led House voted Thursday to pass legislation that would make Election Day a state holiday instead of Lee-Jackson Day.
The Senate has already passed its version of the legislation. Both chambers must sign off on legislation before it goes to the governor for approval.
Lee-Jackson Day, established over 100 years ago, is observed annually on the Friday preceding the third Monday in January. It honors Confederate generals Robert E. Lee and Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson, both native Virginians.

Look around.
School rankings are down.
More overdoses.
More panhandlers.
Law enforcement that doesn’t enforce laws other than traffic violations.
Property values will tank when affordable housing is built in your neighborhood.
Tents on Leesburg pike.
Drive by kingstowne Walmart at night to see people sleeping in their cars.

The name change is long overdue. The current name does not offend me but it does offend some people.

The name of the high school should reflect the neighborhood it serves... how about Burka/MS13 high?

The best thing about the name change is that it triggers the cowardly conservatives. They get all red in the face and they stamp their little feet before they start crying. The name changes are worth every dollar.

I am leading the push to rename the school Soleimani Memorial High School. If there is any justice in this world that will be the name.

You know during the Reign of Terror in France (the brutal leftist revolutionary anti-Christian mob rule) they renamed all streets that started with the word "Saint."
So it's a similar insane bloodthirsty sentiment by deranged progs that drives this attempt to purge our history.
Does anyone really doubt that if the prog social justice warriors of the left gained power they would try a similar reign of terror?
Just listen to the Project Veritas videos of the babbling insanity of the Bernie Sanders supporters for your answer.

Conservatives are scared of name changes. It makes sense because they live in fear.

In fact, I think that changing the name of the school is not the most important topic on the agenda. There are a number of other more important questions. For example, how long will our kids use services like https://assignmentbro.com/us/do-my-homework to do their homework? Without the help of teachers. I understand perfectly well that the new working conditions for teachers are not the most familiar and pleasant, but they are insolent and complain about the difficulty of cooperation between children. I think it is important for us to discuss this.

Hello everyone, when I was also a student in the USA I was often given the task of writing essays, but I had neither the time nor the desire to do that. I am kinda person who does not know how to express thoughts accurately so I made up my mind to contact this service https://thebestessays.net/best-law-essay-writing-service/ and they provided me with quick help that I was very pleased with.
