Would Washington have fought in the Revolution if the North had tried to free the slaves back then? Would Jefferson had written the Declaration of Independence? Hell no. They were actual slave owners, not just generals in the military.
When they do change the name over at JEB Stuart, at least have the decency to not change it to something that will lower my property value. Something generic like Crossroads High School would be fine.

Which is trying harder to erase history, ISIS or the DNC? We already know that the DNC hates America more than ISIS does.

I'm leaning towards renaming it Hugo Chavez High School, in honor of one of my favorite socialists. Whaddya think? Would "Fidel Castro High" be better?

You make no sense whatsoever. Jefferson wasn't a general in the military, and neither the declaration of independence nor Washington's command of the continental army were predicated on the condition that the north "leave slavery alone".
That's such a stupid opinion it's hard to fathom how you came up with it.

Trumptards don't seem to understand this. The issue isn't 'slave ownership', it's the fact that he became a traitor to the United States and shed blood to protect the practice and spread of slavery. That's a huge difference. Sort of like, i smoke weed. It's 'wrong', i know it. But it's not like i've gone out and killed some cops so that they won't bust me or others who smoke weed.

The cost of an ordinary scoreboard is well over $200 grand. Then you have signage, uniforms and a host of other expenses. When the SB is raising class size and has other budgetary woes, why are they even considering incurring an expense of over a million and perhaps more? Will Woodson, Lee, TJ be far behind? FCPS does NOT have the resources to effect the change. How much have they already spent?

Not the same thing. Different time. No TV, no internet. Information was likely very limited. Loyalty was to your home. He probably made the choice to defend his home--not slavery. This does not excuse slavery in any way, but you do not know what was in his heart or mind.
Should the school have been named after him? No. Should we spend money to change the name? No. Sandy Evans and her pals have created this issue.

Not really. Literacy was high and telegraph and railroads meant news traveled surprisingly fast. Journalism was abundant and newspapers and magazines were available everywhere. People could and did stay well-informed of current events and politics in those days.

">Should the school have been named after him? No"
When the school was named FXCO was home to many veterans and active duty military. 2/3 of the people here had been in the service or were still on active duty.
Jeb Stuart.. The Army's of The North and South..all the battles were studied by military historians. They studied the battles of the men in Blue and Grey at West Point..They still do.
Jeb Stuart was not a coward..and he proved that in battle..The School Name was appropriate at the time it was named.
And As you pointed out correctly
" > Not the same thing. Different time. No TV, no internet. Information was likely very limited. Loyalty was to your home. He probably made the choice to defend his home--not slavery"
Loyalty was to the people of the South's home as the South was more rural then the North
Wanting to change the name to go with the times is one thing.. IT SHOULD have been done when the School was remodeled 8 years or so ago. IF It Was Such A Great Issue. It Was Not!
But today..to smear a mans name WHO VIRGINIA RESPECTED for So Many Years as a Leader in Battle ..as a Loyal Virginian..as a Reason For A Name Change.of a School..is Pure Weak Lib Bullshit at Work. And Is One Of The BIG Reasons LIBS are getting NO RESPECT From More and More AMERICANS EVERY DAY!
Renaming the school and squandering $$ doing it when FCPS is Begging for more money , and Jeb Stuart today is a failing school = Liberal Insanity!

If Stuart fought for the American cause this would not even be an issue. It wouldn't matter if he sympathized with slavery (like many Union officers did), or even owned slaves. He volunteered to commit violence against and overthrow our country, to prolong slavery. The worst cause any American ever fought for: a rebellion to maintain slave labor.

Disagree. . They were fighting to PRESERVE the country as it was founded. It was founded on the idea that the states were sovereign.
And to say that it's o.k to name a school after a slaveowner because they didn't support the Confederacy seems asinine. You're saying that owning slaves is not as big a deal as supporting the right of your state to be sovereign and make its own laws, including owning slaves? It seems ridiculous to keep the name of a school named after a slaveholder, and yet change the name of a school named after a person who may or may not have been a slaveholder, or may even have been against slavery, but supported the right of his state to be sovereign.

History is not black or white, nor is it propaganda. History is ambiguous if told honestly. It is hard enough to figure out who were actual patriots and who were actual traitors, and it's impossible to play God and judge the right or wrong of a given action, even the niggers.

Trumptard here....no, maybe you don't get it.
I have found where after the confederate names go, it's then the founding fathers. George Washington and Benjamin Franklin schools were both changed. It's all about their ASSOCIATION with slavery.
"Such hyperbole is standard with Galmon. He routinely dismisses white people who oppose his positions as racist, and attacks black people who disagree with him as ``miseducated'' or ``misguided Negroes.'' After a ruckus last year over removing George Washington's name from an elementary school, Galmon told The New York Times that, ``to African-Americans, George Washington has about as much meaning as David Duke.''

Hi Sandy,
Here is a response for the community member.
The Purchasing and Contracts program employs best practices and implements innovative strategies..........
Please note that the Stuart RFP was drafted to provide flexibility, should the Board consider renaming schools in the future. The $5,000 - $100,000 threshold will allow FCPS to utilize the same facilitator without having to reissue an RFP.

To the naacp, yes.
They are a radical organization that does not care about any substantial issues in society such as fatherless homes, drug abuse, criminality, teenage pregnancy, the list goes on and on. No, they are an organization that only cares about removing Confederate generals names from public schools and trying to get Mississippi to change their state flag...
Interesting how they pick Thurgood Marshall and not Clarence Thomas to be the new name of the school, I wonder why (sarcasm)...

Are you going to foot the bill just because you're offended by the name? What if we change the name of the high school to Wyatt Earp High, or Sitting Bull high, or Crazy Horse high? Care to explain why only radical modern leftists names are being considered?

What is the status of this? I vaguely remember hearing about intimidation at some of the public hearings about the name change. After reviewing some of the material from some of the working groups it appears that this name change thing is about as much of a screwed up mess now as what it was a year ago. From what I see, Cohen is willing to chair a fund raising committee but appears to the tight wad liberal asshole that I perceived him to be, the School Board knows full well that paying for this with budgeted funds would equate to career suicide, the efforts to poll the community was a cluster fuck failure, what info they were able to extract through polling indicated general indifference but a healthy majority against changing the name and finally there are extensive doubts that the funds can be raised by the FFX community. Did I miss anything?

Only that the efforts by the neo-Confederates to attack and delay failed, the old white fart brigade acted like a bunch of whiny babies, and the School Board will vote to change the name later this month.

Just once tell me where is the evidence that it was named for spite? Just once make an argument about why it's a good thing and stop attacking the opposition personally.
Neo –Confederates…do you guys ever get tired of labels?
Anyone who disagrees with you is an evil, racist, homophobe, Neo-Confederate etc. gets tiring…just an underhanded tactic to prevent people from opposing your positions. Worse it is harmful to the people whom you claim to be trying to help.
The old white people are paying the bills. The old white people are LISTENTING to the kids. The old white people are helping because the kids who object and don't agree are called racist, and worse, the SJW history teachers are making them uncomfortable about their grades.
The "the old white fart brigade acted like a bunch of whiny babies" most didn't show up at a meeting where Alber invited his closet 35,000 friends on change.org in addition to all the local chapters of the NAACP, DC, MD and VA. It was the Fairfax County Police who made that call…..especially knowing the offer by Parker of angry black protestors…
And who did the jeering and nasty comments at that meeting. Only your side if anyone spoke in defense of keeping the name. The reverse never happened.
Our kids don't need it and the community doesn't need.
Hey…but your good at labels.

After Bruce raises money for the name change he's better be ready to do a lot more fundraising. They'll lose a lot of alumni support. They will definitely lose a lot of community support, we are saturated with request in our neighborhood. The Booster club plans on folding, they are tired of struggling, they are not about to start from scratch.
Neither Principal Gros or the PTSA took a position on the name change. Wisely...they didn't want to add to the division and tension among the students. Alber (NAACP) referred to the PSTA as "cowardly", nice guy...more labels.
So Bruce can raise money and Alber and company better step up and roll up their sleeves and do some ACTUAL physical work, besides dividing the community and meeting with his 5 students at the Frozen Dairy Bar. Or is the plan to destroy the community support structure, PSTA and Booster club and walk away?

The poll taken by the School Board (Janet Evans?) had a breakdown of about 55% against changing the name and 35 for it. In any election that would be considered a landslide.

Here is a thought. With DeVos promoting charter schools it is probable that this type of high school will be available soon. When this takes place all white and literate minorities will enroll elsewhere and the NAACP will have he school to themselves. It can then be renamed NAACP High and they will then be able to hold their graduation at the local McDonalds.

You're absolutely correct. Only about a third of those agreed with the name change, that's low. Notice how even in Fairfax only a third want the name change, that tells u most people are at bare minimum taking a pragmatic approach to this issue and realize that the cost is beyond outrageous, especially for a school that has actual tangible problems...

"The poll taken by the School Board (Janet Evans?) had a breakdown of about 55% against changing the name and 35 for it. In any election that would be considered a landslide."
You obviously don't watch SB meetings. The SB knows better than the citizens of Fairfax County what is best for you. They pretty much say that any time they vote for anything controversial.
p.s. It's Sandy Evans. Janet Evans is the swimmer.

It sounds ludicrous now but once you give in a bit, these SJW's will keep pushing. First the Confederate monuments, school names, street names. Then they'll move on to the slave holding founding fathers. In 50 yrs, if it still exists, even the Washington Post will be called something else. How does Thurgood Marshall DC sound?

My wife was from Cameroon. She didn't know anything about the Civil War, although she probably knew more US history than the average HS student does today. Anyway, we drove through Woodbridge. She asked "Why does Richmond Hwy become Jefferson Davis Hwy?" I said he was the Pres. of the Confederacy and Richmond was the Capitol. Prince William County is less liberal so kept the name. Then, I did my Southern Gentleman impression. "I, Jefferson Davis, Pres. of the CSA...." She laughed.

That's a bogus slippery slope argument. One could easily say that if pro-confederates are allowed to name the school after a confederate general, soon they'll start renaming streets after guys like David Duke and building monuments to the Klan.
It's just dumb reasoning.

Really? Arlington County is going to rename Patrick Henry Elementary! You know the Founding Father who said "Give me liberty or give me death!"

That's not accurate. They're building a new school. The new school will house the students from the existing Patrick Henry school. They're choosing a name for the new school. Not renaming the existing structure. And in all fairness there's no reason to automatically just take the name off an old building and put it on a new one.

Really, what world do you live in (?)...just Google name changes and slavery. Just because you continually post here and other places doesn't make it true. Keep trying to convince yourself.

No. NO reason except that is where the kids are going. Why change it? He was a very important Virginian. But, it appears that many want to ignore our history.

Gee. That has been the name of the school since 1925. This isn't the first building. Why change it this time?

In total fairness, it wouldn't even be a question had it not now been pointed out that Patrick Henry owned slaves. That is now the sum of his life. Slavery was around from Colonial Virginia right up until the 1860's. You probably won't find a prominent Virginian who lived back then who doesn't have some connection somewhere.
Therefore let's just wipe out all Virginian names and be done with it.

No problem, she is deserving of recognition, but what excuse do you have for referring to people as "retards," people who just may feel differently. Glad you're not judgmental of other opinions.. No hypocrisy there?
