[quote=Anonymous]It seems to me that the "changers" want revenge rather than unity. Everything posted by them would indicate this. I'm one of those who would have voted to compromise with "Stuart" had I been in the community. I am also one of those footing the bill for something that I realize will not improve the education of students--and, I speak as one who has spent years in the education field--many of those years with needy kids. I agree that Jeb Stuart was a poor choice of name, but I also do not see how renaming the school is a good value for the dollars spent. I guess, according to the "changers" that makes me a racist. I am not. Dollars that are earmarked for the education of our children will be spent on something of little value in improving their education. I would have supported "Stuart" because it was the least expensive alternative. Until all of this was brought up, no one even thought about who Jeb Stuart was. [/quote]
