[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Instead of [b]wasting all that money[/b] satisfying their White Guilt, maybe MCPS should take the millions of dollars that it would require to change all these names and donate it to an organization working to stop modern day slavery in Africa where 9.2 million people live in servitude.

How much money? Please tell us how you know.[/b]

As for "white guilt," I'm going to assume that you don't live in Montgomery County and are unfamiliar with the Montgomery County Board of Education.[/quote]

How about we spend ZERO dollars on this?

This can be done on a school by school basis.

If people at a particular school dislike the person who it's named for, they can advocate for change.

This is NOT something the BOE/MCPS needs to be wasting time/money on.  If it is an issue at a certain school, then the students and teachers and parents can advocate for a name change.  And, the BOE can decide one way or the other.

There are so many other things that MCPS needs to focus on.  [/quote]

MCPS is a big organization and can focus on multiple things at once.

And the reason for this study of MCPS school namesakes is: people advocating for change.[/quote]
