[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The names of schools "educate" (i.e., send a message) to children. If you don't understand that by now, you're being deliberately obtuse. Sorry (not really) that our elected School Board decided it was long past time to stop sucking up to the Confederacy. [/quote] Actually, not so much do they send a message. I bet if you ask Woodson students, that few know who it was named for unless the school makes an issue of it. Same with Robinson. No one is "sucking up" to the Confederacy when they think the money would be better spent elsewhere. Dropping "Jeb" long ago, would have solved that issue, in any case. [/quote] It would require far more than dropping some initials to rebrand that school's Confederate legacy, which is what the School Board has now done. [/quote]
