I am a ‘94 graduate of Lee. I always wondered why we weren’t Staunton HS like ALL of the other schools around us. No one can argue if you name your high school after your city. What other choice is there? None of the other choices make any sense. I lettered in two sports while at Lee. Both of my letters are ‘S’. I urge the board to make 24401 Brooke (Hanna) Trzcinski Staunton High School the sensible decision. Staunton High School was the earlier name. It was the name when my grandparents attended. It also is not controversial but while also indicating 22311 Theresa (Markley) Brion Staunton High School N/A its location. He was my pe coach and always a wonderful teacher.

I think Shenandoah Valley High School or Staunton High School are more encompassing and show the area in which the students live in and come from. They are inclusive and allow for the school's alumni and current population to be proud of the city or area in which they live and that their 55403 Juliette Aaslestad Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School school is reflective of that. Thank you! it’s not discriminatory and it shows the 24401 Hannah Abigail Queen City High School pride of staunton as the Queen City

There is no other school called "Shenandoah" in the Valley. There used to be one in Page County. It became an elementary school in the 1960's. There was a school in Bath County called "Valley High School" until the merger in the 1970's.. The term "Shenandoah" is or Native American Origins. There are several "versions" of the Word. From a marketing standpoint, Shenandoah would be better than Shenandoah Valley because people would eventually shorten the term anyway and call it Shenandoah. Basically, Shenandoah is a prettier word and is known throughout the world. There is 24401 Richard Adams Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School my one and only opinion.

However, it would be fine to have the school named after Lew Dewitt, with the mascot being the 24401 Elma Allen Staunton High School Lew DeWitt High School Rocker. It's stately, references Staunton historical roots, and has a nice 24401 Kayla Allen Queen City High School "feminine power" ring to it. 22980 Coty Allen Queen City High School Staunton High School .

There is no reason to change it. It is part of history. When you try to erase history, it does have a way of repeating itself. I grew up in this area and cant believe this is even happening. Furthermore, changing it, you may as well change the city name, and change our capitols name. This is a waste of the city's money. We could use it on so Leave the name alone, don't many other BETTER, Needed, and 24477 Kati Almarode change it at all productive things! Queen city is offensive to transvestites, shenandoah hs should be in shenandoah county, Shen. Valley hs would be fine if you were the only school on the shenandoah valley but youre not, lady staunton was as slave owner also so thats no better than Robert E Lee, and valley high sounds like the stupid sweet vally high books so that is stupid too.

I grew up in Staunton and went to RE Lee all four years. It wasn't until I found out the name had been changed from Staunton HS to RE Lee just after integration that I was excited about a name change. The US is not the same country and Staunton is not the same town we were in the 1960s. I think a little hospitality is called for in this season. Also, just for fun, if you named the school Queen City HS, you could call the football team "Parliament," which just sounds baller, as the kids would say. —Trent Anthony, 34, Raleigh, N.C. resident, working in 27614 Trent Anthony Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A Christian ministry. 24402 will anthony Statler High They put staunton on map It would be cool to have a high school 24401 Tristan Apgar Queen City High School T Apgar High named after myself. 24401 Brendan Apgar Queen City High School Lee high everyone calls it that lol 24401 Brendan Apgar Staunton High School Lee high school every one calls it lee I really like the quote “famLEE” and I 24401 Gia Aponté Ratner Queen City High School Lee High School think Queen City sounds cool Terry Davis Memorial High 24401 John Arbuckle Staunton High School School Terry Davis fights for god.

The school is the only public high school in Staunton, so Staunton High is most appropriate. Queen City High gives a nod to the city’s history which could appease those who are indignant 23238 Mary Archer Queen City High School Staunton High School over the name change. Nobody in staunton has a problem with Coach Hatcher. He was Lee High and his name on the school would be a bridge between those who are for and those who oppose the name change. And I think he really deserves it! His players, assistant coaches and family put a lot of time in putting Lee High on 24401 Devin Archie Staunton High School Paul Hatcher High School the map. Woodrow Wilson High 24401 Mandi Arehart Staunton High School School Presidential birth place

Staunton is fitting because of the town it's in and dropping the R.E. but keeping Lee would obviously be the most cost effective. Personally I don't want my personal property and real estate taxes that I paid to the city of Staunton to go up because someone else other than me decided that we need this. I'm sure that is of no concern to them, it is quite easy to spend other people's money. Had the taxpayers been allowed a vote on this none of 24401 Marsha Arehart Staunton High School Lee High this would even be an issue. It represents the beautiful valley so everyone should be happy -- which will never happen -- there are a lot who will 24401 Martha Arehart Shenandoah Valley High School Robert E Lee NEVER be happy!

"Shenandoah High School" or "Shenandoah Valley High School" ties the name to the land and to a place we all share. The name "Shenandoah" is Native American in origin; using this name for our high school also pays homage to the true native population of the land where Staunton now exists. Both of the names "Shenandoah High School" and "Shenandoah Valley High School" rely on timeless meanings, transcending present and future 24401 Amy Arnold Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School political framings. "Staunton" is clear, accurate, and non- 24401 Albert Arnold Staunton High School controversial. 24421 Becky Arnott Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School appropriate

I actually like all the suggestions. Adding 'United' to the name drives home the purpose of removing Lee from the building, especially after the year we have been through with folks being divided on the issue. Plus chanting "Staunton United" at sporting 24401 Heidi Austin-Cook Staunton High School Staunton United High School events would sound awesome! 24401 John Avoli Staunton High School R E Lee Best alternative! We live in the city of Staunton; therefore, the name should reflect our 24401 Katy Avoli-Miller Staunton High School city. 24401 Chris Aycock Staunton High School Valley High School Regional, appropriate 24401 Chris Aycock Staunton High School It makes the most sense You should’ve picked a name before voting to 24421 H B Staunton High School change it from RE LEE!!!

Respects those of us who graduated from Lee High but takes away the 22802 Kay Baker Lee High School connection to the confederate general.

The civil war happened, good men fought for what they believed in and NO the civil war was not just about Slavery, stop trying to erase history because some crybabies were offended that HISTORY didn’t go in their favor.

Naming it Staunton H.S. would return to its original, neutral name before the Lost Causers named it after Lee. It is politically neutral and can't offend anyone. Alternatively, after 80 years of a name honoring someone who defended slavery, naming the school after Lucy Francis Simms, an elementary school teacher from Harrisonburg who was born a slave, would be a good way to honor a Civil Rights figure who is as local as I could find.

my kids graduated from Robert E Lee - Mr Lee was a reformist post the war, I do not see a problem with a school named after a reformist if you are teaching all of the history not just what 24401 Jana Barry Queen City High School Robert E.

Because the name should have something to do with Staunton City not 24401 Cindy Beam Queen City High School Staunton High School the Shenandoah valley 24401 Lee Beam Staunton High School Original name Because Queen City is a beautiful name and it is not bland just like “Staunton 24401 Sebastian Beam Queen City High School city schools” 24401 Jennifer Beam Queen City High School Staunton City High School Any of these good options. 24401 Olivia Bean Queen City High School Staunton High School Na It is the most unique name. Unique 24477 Heidi Bean Queen City High School name for a unique city. It adds personality to the name of 24401 Kaycee Bean Queen City High School Queen City High School Staunton's high school Revert to the previous, and I believe 22802 Barbara Bean Staunton High School original, name. John Gilbert Lewis High John Gilbert Lewis is father of City of 24401 Oscar Beasley School Staunton. 24430 Jessica Beaty Staunton High School just because 24401 Ashton Beauchamp Staunton High School Original Because if the Jefferson association won't recognize her then someone 24401 James Beaver Queen City High School Sally Hemings High School should. Mary Bowser was an escaped slave and union spy working in the Confederate White House as Jefferson Davis' slave. She risked her life to pass information Mary Elizabeth Bowser High North, and eventually burned the place 24401 Jessica Beaver Queen City High School School to the ground on her way out. It’s another name for Staunton and it 24401 Sarah Becker Queen City High School has a nice ring to it

Queen City is a nice way to represent 24401 Natalie Becker Queen City High School the high school of Staunton, Virginia. Staunton is the city where the school is 24401 Susan Becker Staunton High School located. enough of the political division. The existing name was not a problem for all until the media and politics made it an 24401 Barbara Becker Robert E Lee High School issue

Because most other schools are named after their location, so should we. It 24401 Rachel Becker Staunton High School makes the most sense

It sounds better than Staunton high 24401 Sarah Becker Queen City High School school and means the same thing 22980 Morgan Beckerdite Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Queen City is very unique Most prestigious alumni, brilliant human, family connection to Staunton, 24441 Danielle Beckey Staunton High School Francis Collins High School MBU and Oak Grove

It’s a neutral name. I may be a white female, but a name like Robert e lee is outdated and inappropriate. May even 22939 Andrea Behrer Shenandoah Valley High School make some students uncomfortable. 2, 3 and 5 are too generic and don't add to an identity. I like Queen City but it doesn't feel right either. It is the high 24401 Kathy Belcher Staunton High School school of Staunton. Since the city of Staunton only has one high school, it seems that the name of 22980 Sandi Belcher Staunton High School the city is appropriate. Francis Collins is a Staunton native who has done wonderful things for the 24401 Janet Belknap Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Francis Collins high school community and science. I like queen city better than the other 24401 Traeshaun Bell Queen City High School Lee high names

I think both of these words are positive, not based off of a person and these are things we want our students to Hope or Courage High emulate as they go through school and 24401 Natalie Bell School. gain their independence and education. Alphonso Hamilton High 22980 Dennis Bell School !st black asst. principal after intergration 24401 Don Bell Staunton High School Least offensive to those sensitive That is the original name prior to being 22901 william Bell Staunton High School renamed for R.E. Lee It’s neutral and should not offend any sensitive people on either side of the 24401 Don Bell Staunton High School debate 24401 Nashay Bell Queen City High School It's a different name 22903 Betsy Bell Staunton High School It represents the community 24401 Brendan Bell Staunton High School Obama High it the right thing to do Staunton High Scholl was the name before R.E. Lee High School was built in 22920 Richard Bell Staunton High School 1926.

Because that is the name it has been the whole time I have been alive and changing it the other name is not rite 24401 Dale Bell Jr Robert E Lee High School because of what other people thing

I feel like Queen City is appropriate but 544 Lauren Bellvedeau Queen City High School allows for more life to in the name. 24401 Courtney Bengele Queen City High School Queen City High School GO ROYALS 24401 Courtney Bengele Queen City High School Robert E Lee High School It sounded the coolest I guess

24401 Christopher Benjamin Staunton High School Previously named Staunton High School We are all Stauntonians and this name should unite us. And, as our sports teams etc. travel around the state, others in Virginia will learn how to 24401 Frances Benjamin Staunton High School pronounce our city's name! 22980 Joel Benjamin Queen City High School Its unique

He is the one man in this community who cares about every single child. He 24401 Jenna Bennett Mike Guertler High School is an amazing role model to all. 24401 Louis Bennett Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School They are all fitting names

24401 Kayla Bennett Queen City High School Because it fits and I am a student here.

24401 Lillian Bennett Staunton High School Staunton City High School Because this is Staunton, VA. Simple. 24401 Haylee Bennett Queen City High School It's a nice name 24477 Lori Bennett Queen City High School Queen City is Staunton.

This is the original name of the school 22939 Amber Benson Staunton High School and what it should be reverted to.

It's the original name of the school. But no everyone says it's racist. How long Robert E. lee. Y'all fucking has that school been named that? 24441 Brittany Benting Staunton High School dumb Without anything being said.

24401 Sophia Beratta Queen City High School Nah It’s inclusive! And it sounds very regal. 24401 Ashley Berger Staunton High School After the city Simply because it's the name of our 24401 Jessica Bergh Staunton High School N/A beloved city It honors the town and doesn’t offend 24401 David Berman Staunton High School anyone. I think names should suggest the 24401 David Berman Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School geographical location. It is an appropriate name for the “Queen city.” It is inclusive and thought 24401 Peter Bernard Queen City High School . provoking. These names both sound good and are appropriately descriptive of the school. The optiond with the word 'Shenandoah' are not bad choices either but they are not as unique sounding and are a bit vague given that the valley is much bigger than the 24401 Samuel Bernard Queen City High School Staunton High School school district.

I will be happy with any name that is inclusive. I prefer Queen City because I think it's more distinctive and we can continue to build on Staunton's nickname in that way - plus the mascot can be The Monarchs! I like Staunton Highschool because it's very neutral and low key. I also like Shenendoah for 24401 Heather Bernard Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School the same reason.

I feel like changing the name to Booker T. Washington would go a long way in healing the rift in our society by acknowledging that the roots of our school include not only Robert E lee, but also Booker T. Washington as well. Lee has had credit for long enough, it's 24401 Cece Bernard Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Booker T. Washington time to remember other nobler people. They deal with the location, which I feel is much clearer than naming schools after a person (any person, regardless 24401 Liz Bernardo Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School of impact, etc.) 24401 Tosha Berry Queen City High School Still unique and sounds upstanding quickly points out where, who we are 24401 Jerry Berry Staunton High School and is all inclusive.

The City of Staunton is something that every student who attends the high school has in common. It is a name that 24401 Heather Berry Staunton High School is inclusive of all students. 24401 Stephanie Berry Queen City High School Fits the town They are suitable names for a 24401 Colby Berry Staunton High School Robert e lee high school highschool. 24477 lexi berry Queen City High School it’s not plain Sarah Beth Queen City High School Yea

I think reverting back to Staunton High School is pointless. But I still think the name should represent the community. And we are the Queen City, so I think 24401 Raven Beverage Queen City High School that’s a perfect name.

Staunton is nicknamed “The Queen City”. That name gives a a sense of pride. I believe that the students and community need a name that they can be proud of. Queen City Royals....has a 24421 Triska Beverage Queen City High School Staunton High School very nice ring to it! 98027 Cody Beverly Shenandoah Valley High School It's not robert e lee There will be way too much money spent on this name change when it could be used for way more important things, like children’s lunches or supplies, or god forbid we pay the 22827 Brooke Bevington Robert E. Lee High School teachers a little more.

Im a Robert E LEE High School graduate and the reason for changing the name is ridiculous and a WASTE of money. Changing the name of a building wont 22980 Sharon Bibb Robert E Lee High School change someones heart!!!! It's the city of Staunton. Stay with what 24401 Tracy Biel Staunton High School . is obvious 24401 Rose Bigelow Shenandoah High School Valley High School Anything but Staunton High School Historic name of school, simple, to-the- 22401 Sam Biggers Staunton High School point, factual. 24431 Bill Bill Shenandoah Valley High School Dont fucking change it . 22401 Jean Billings Staunton High School R. E. Lee Because it's a good name

Staunton identifies the school with the city which is important not only locally by in media beyond our area, to visitors and new citizens, on college applications and other submissions. The other suggestions: Queen City is not as widely recognized as Staunton; there is already a Valley Vo Tech, and a town and county each named Shenandoah, which may cause unnecessary confusion. There should be no controversy over Staunton as it refers to place or person except the 24401 Constance Birch Staunton High School long dead Lady Staunton. Shenandoah has been overused as a way to describe the general area and is already the name of a university in Winchester. To make Staunton stand out as being the progressive City it is, I think Queen City is very fitting. Thank 24477 Samantha Bird Queen City High School Staunton High School you

24401 Samuel Birdzell Queen City High School Ulysses S. Grant High School Both invoke true history of winners. 24401 Wendy Birotte Queen City High School No Its beautiful

We’re the only HS in Staunton. Don’t even consider other names-this makes 24401 Shelley Bishop Staunton High School None sense and cannot misinterpreted.

First i will say that i am upset at the choice to change it in the first place. However since it will happen i dont feel it should be after another well known military leader or political figure. It should honor someone who has been It should be named after a positive piece to the school itself. And 22980 Stephanie Bishopriggs Queen City High School Paul Hatcher who better than Paul Hatcher you don’t have the money to rebrand 24401 None Bizness R E Lee High School everything 666 Nunya Biznus Schoolie McSchoolface Because.

It is the only high school in Staunton and it lets all Stauntonians show pride 24401 Susan Black Staunton High School for our city. Queen City says where the school is. There are many schools in the 24435 Meredith Black Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley.

County name, unique city nickname, 24401 Joel Black Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Augusta High School tells about the area we live in

I like the original name, other area schools have their town name as high school name (ex. Waynesboro high 24401 Ashley Black Staunton High School school, Harrisonburg high school, etc) 24401 Diana Black Staunton High School Inclusive and descriptive Queen City HS would stand out in the area, and could provide the opportunities for multiple possible 24401 Andrew Black Queen City High School Schooly McSchoolface mascot changes.

Queen city is our namesake. Svhs would be the only name like it for such an area. MLKHS would be a real stick in the craw for anyone who thinks we Martin Luther king jr high should name memorials after traitors 24401 Chris Black Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School school and slave owners. It shouldn’t be changed. Ask the 24401 Faye Blacka Staunton High School Robert E Lee taxpayers! General Robert E Lee high Honor the man who fought for states 24401 Barry Blacka school rights Lee is a southern thing n still has piece 24431 Donna Blackhawk Lee High School of Heritage n history of

24401 David Blackmon Queen City High School Staunton City It is time for a change in the status quo

Lady Rebecca High School Charles E. Ashburner High School NOTE: The form required I click one of the provided options. I selected "Valley High School", but I am NOT suggesting that be used. I only selected it so Historical persons from Staunton with 22974 Brandon Blackmoor Valley High School that the form would submit. fun names

Leave the name alone. Wasting money on a stupid name change that you could be using that money for something else. How about y’all make everyone who voted for the name 24401 Julie Blackwell Robert E. Lee High School change to pay for it then? City High School - mascot Anything Shenandoah is too close to 24401 Linda Blackwell Citizens Shenandoah County Schools 22980 anthony blackwell Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Obama high school Because I'm not racist like you 24401 Moriah Blackwell Queen City High School Staunton High School Sounds better . this a waste of taxpayer time and 24401 Don Blair R.E. Lee High School money 24441 Crystal Blakeney Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Don't have one They're unique but succinct

It simply states what it is, and is clearer than the ones with Shenandoah in it 24401 Caitlin Blanchard Staunton High School since that’s another place nearby. A location-based name is both specific and unlikely to be changed again at a 22560 Don Blanton Staunton High School later time.

George Caleb Bingham's documentation in paint of the US expansion westward is THE historical record of how the wilderness became civilized. Detail see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_C 22980 Moyshe "Moe" Blatt Staunton High School Bingham High School aleb_Bingham Before it became Robert E Lee High School, it was Staunton. So if it’s going to be changed, just change it back to 33801 Maggie Blehm Staunton High School the original. An American genearl who served in Mexico and Confederate armies and is associated with the region. Known for his military reocord and illegally 22401 K Blevins Stonewall Jackson teaching slaves to read Benjamin A. Shapiro Institute for Manlet 24401 Tyler Blevins Education I have ligma lol I think it will help with local pride, and is a better reflection of the Staunton 22801 Gretchen Blincoe Queen City High School community Queen City (1st choice) and Staunton (2nd choice) are about the city, not the 24401 Michelle Block Queen City High School Staunton High School valley as a whole. 24401 Jacque Blundell Staunton High School Stick with tradition! Tradition! It was the original name of 24401 Malcolm Blundell Staunton High School the city high school.

22401 jim bob Stonewall Jackson The name should have stayed the same 24482 Todd Bobak Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Accurately represents our area. 24401 Ellen Boden Queen City High School Staunton High School Ruth Bader Ginsburg HS They're all Classy 24401 Will Bodkin Staunton High School It's where we live 24401 Siobhan Bodkin Staunton High School Staunton is the city we live in.

Staunton HS was the original name, identifies with the City and is compatible with neighboring cities and towns. But Queen City HS is original, also identifies with our nickname and most important, it is not the name of any person. So, Queen City HS is my first choice. Thank you to the four board members who gave eloquent and well thought out reasons for 24401 Richard Bolstein Queen City High School Staunton High School changing the name.

It’s part of the current seal - that name 22801 Jennifer Bolt Staunton High School is part of the school’s earlier history 24486 Ryan Bonos Donald Trump High School Better than prior suggestions 24401 Cory Booker Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School I am Spartacus!

Because that it the name it should be!! It us rediculous to change the name!! Too much money spent when it could be used for something that would 24401 Cynthia Booth ROBERT E. LEE benefit the students!!!!

Because this is all bullshit crap and they 24401 Seairra Booth Queen City High School Staunton High School seemed like the most okay ones It's a neutral name that plainly describes the city it services and would not be confusing to anyone from 24401 Carol Borrell Staunton High School outside the city. 24401 Andra Borrell Staunton High School It was that name formerly. As a former R.E Lee graduate, I’ve always treasured our queen city nick 78745 Blair Bosserman Queen City High School name!

Despite the fact I don't feel it needs to be changed and there are way bigger issues in the school to address, focus on and spend money on, Staunton High 24401 chris bosserman Staunton High School School is most appropriate. 24401 Lorraine Bosserman John Lewis High School Important in Staunton's history

Zero creativity with other names and actually redundant with Shenandoah Valley Gov School and Valley Vo-Tech in Fishersville already. At least Staunton High School is consistent witht other local High Schools (Waynesboro High, Harrisonburg High, Riverheads High) Will be the laughing stock of area even more than we currently are with Queen City Lee High School -I know it High..Every one of my current co- has no chance because "the workers already making fun of this school board said so", but it entire situation and commenting on doesn't have to be reflective what a joke this has been..don't make 24401 Tina Bosserman Staunton High School of Robert E Lee worse for kids, teachers and families. 24401 Ryan Bosserman Queen City High School Its different from the regular city 24401 Ann Bosserman Lee High School Reputation, history and tradition It's how it should have remained in the 24401 Briana Bosserman Staunton High School first place It's simple and shouldn't touch 24401 Ronnie Bosserman Staunton High School Nope anyone's sensitive side I graduated from there-the name was 22554 Rosa Bosserman Leave it as it is fine then and it still is ! 24401 Trisa Bosserman Shenandoah High School It represents the Shenandoah He was a dedicated teacher for decades 24401 Rod Bostic HUNTER TALBOTT H.S. in Staunton Original name of the building as a junior hs and founding father of 24401 Kathy Botkin John Lewis high school Staunton The school is located in Staunton; therefore, the name should default 24437 Suzanne Botkin Staunton High School back to that.

Because you can change the name that Crystal Botkin Lee high school it'll always B Robert E Lee High School Named after the Statler Brothers, who 24401 Tyler Bouthillier Statler High School brought legacy to Staunton.

I chose that name because it should not even be changed. Erasing the past will not help anything, but will allow history 24401 Morgan Boward Robert E. Lee High School to repeat it's self. 24477 Melissa Bower Queen City High School What name I like 90210 Kayly Bower Schooly McSchoolFace It's the most fitting. 24401 Zach Bowles Paul Hatcher High School Because he was great 24401 Cheryl Bowling Queen City High School i like it 24401 Emily Bowling Queen City High School Nice ring to it

It is the most logical and not too generic. Many other local high schools would qualify as Shenandoah, Valley etc. Also, using the town's nickname to 24477 Danielle Bowman Staunton High School name the high school is ridiculous.

Staunton has a rich history, worth celebrating. So, too, did Robert E Lee and he was celebrated long enough. I'd only wish that there would always be reference to those of us proud Leemen who preceded the change in name. Tradition, Ambition, and Pride are the cornerstone of the high school in 24477 Mark Bowman Queen City High School Staunton, regardless the name.

Staunton and Queen City because they're accurate and local; Booker T. (my suggestion) because it was *also* the name of a local school named for a historic figure, but one that no local whites were heated up about saving. As one citizen asked at the hearing, Booker T. Washington High "whose history? whose nostalgia?" are 24401 Arlynda Boyer Queen City High School Staunton High School School we preserving here?

Because its the original name and we should be spending the money on better things such as technology or anything to hepp advamce our education but instead you want to spend thousands of dollars changing a 24401 Sarah Boyett Queen City High School Robert E Lee High School name. Mainly due to Robert E Lee not being 27615 Todd Boyle Valley High School an option 24401 Tanner Boyle Staunton High School Makes the most sense

Staunton High School is a good name which brings the community together as one. John Lewis High School invokes 24401 John Boyles Staunton High School John Lewis High School the historic nature of the area. I believe that Staunton High School is a neutral name that represents who our city literally. Many schools are named for the area they are a part of, so I feel like this would be the best option. I also believe that Francis Collins is the most famous person to my knowledge that graduated form Lee. From what I have heard, he is a repectful man who also happened to be very successful and at one time serve under one of our 24401 Zack Boyles Staunton High School Francis Collins High School presidents.

John Lewis was the founder of Staunton. . Naming the school “Lewis” high school might be a good compromise of keeping some of the heritage some older residents cling to while also promoting a more inclusive school dynamic. If that name isn’t considered, however, I think Staunton High School would be the best choice because it would be restoring the high 24401 Alexa Boyles Staunton High School John Lewis High School school to its original name.

It is the best out of the choices. I would 24401 Michele Brackman Queen City High School love to keep it Lee High if all possible. 24401 jenna brackman Queen City High School queen city i like it We need peace and it has to start with our Youth, a United name to Unite 24401 TONYA Brackman Queen City High School United High School everyone

Hometown name and geared toward the United States. Not directly related to any person gender or race but the 24401 Angela Brady Staunton High School Staunton Liberty liberty to choose who you want to be. She was an amazing advocate and 24401 Molly Brady Queen City High School Sojourner Truth High School defender of African Americans instead of queen high school i want 24401 Logan Bragg Valley High School King City High School king high school 24401 Reba Branch Staunton High School Staunton city high school Because it needs a new name

It *the* high school in Staunton, so that makes sense. And the others don't specifically reflect Staunton. There are other schools in the Shenandoah Valley, and there are other cities in VA referred to as "Queen City". Staunton High School reflects Staunton itself, not 22980 Michelle Brandt Staunton High School the Valley as a whole. Mr. Hamilton shaped thousands of Students at both Lee and Booker T. Washington I have never heard someone speak poorly of Mr. Hamilton, all other schools in Staunton are named for former administrators. I know Alphonso Hamilton Senior there is a gym at BTW named after him, 22939 Chris Branham High School but I think this would be more fitting. 24401 Gary Brant Stonewall Jackson History Its different and unique and it still 24401 Erica Brasuel Queen City High School incorporates our town Almost every local high school is named for its location. Therefore, it makes the 24401 Katlyn Bratton Staunton High School most sense.

25401 Katharine Bratton taylor Staunton High School It is the high school in Staunton Virginia

He is a visionary, who has inspired many to follow in his foot steps, he has innovated the internet with his OS Terry Davis Memorial High systems and more people of color like 24401 Isabelle Braun School him need to be represented. Eva Braun Staunton High School 1488 MLK HIGH mlk

The school is in Staunton for Staunton students. Any other name will be confusing as to where it's located. It's not offensive e to anyone and won't hurt anyone feelings. Go back to what 24401 Cyndi Braxton Staunton High School it originally was! 24477 Aizha Breckenridge Queen City High School no na

A simple name, goes with the surrounding areas we are in, I think the 24401 Amaru Breckenridge Staunton High School Bekfast High School mascot should be an eagle of some sort. 22827 Kelly Breeden Queen City High School No clue 22840 Mickey Breeden Valley High School N/A N/A

Because Staunton used to be called 24401 Chris Breeden Queen City High School Queen City Royals Queen City and I know it as that. Queen city used to be what people 24401 Madison Breeden Queen City High School Queen City Royals called staunton. 24401 David Breighner Shenandoah Valley High School Fuller Because he is the best teacher John Cena is my hero, and high schoolers deserve to attend a school 24402 Maggie Brenner John Cena High School named after such a hero.

Refers directly to the town in which the HS is located (unlike the Shenandoah and Valley combinations). Queen City sounds too much like a promotional 24401 Benjamin Brewer Staunton High School slogan. its something to be proud of, and 22402 Jack Brickley Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Donald J Trump High School everyone enjoys pride 30132 Gregory Brickner Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School They reflect the community. 24401 Gavin Briggs Queen City High School Queen City Royals mascot Unique name Queen city is a name that sounds very good, and is a name that actually means something to the city. It’s a name that shows who we are, without the classic, not to mention boring, 24401 Benjamin Briggs Queen City High School Staunton High School name of “Staunton High School” 24477 Tim Briggs Queen City High School Staunton High School They sound best to me.

Leader of the Human Genome Project. 24401 Megan Bright Queen City High School Francis Collins High School Attended Staunton schools.

22812 Silas Bright Queen City High School none It's the most original and best sounding

Staunton High School is the only logical name. No one outside this area knows the name Queen City. Using the name Shenandoah or Valley would imply that the school was something more than it is. Simply put; it is Staunton’s high 24459 Stanley Bright Staunton High School No school.

We are affectionately known as the Queen City and I think it’s a suitable 24401 Natalie Broadnax Queen City High School and proud name for the school

It was the original name. “Shenandoah” and “Valley” describe too large an area, “Queen City” is just an invitation to be 24401 Kathy Brobst Staunton High School joked. these reflect an inclusive, welcoming 24401 Michelle Brock Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton community

So we could keep the same colors and 24401 Kaila Broderick Queen City High School it would be like a name not just a city It celebrates our Native American route 24401 Sienna Brodfuehrer Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley pike high school in Shenandoah Valley Staunton was the original name of the 24401 Kristine Brodfuehrer Queen City High School Staunton High School HS 22482 Daphne Brogan Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton City High School They roll off the tongue better Because there's waynesboro high school...buffalo gap hs....just name it 24477 Tiff Brooks Staunton High School Nope where it's at....Staunton hs I like going with the historical name of staunton high school but think any of 24401 Clayton Brooks Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School these would be fine. Staunton High School is inclusive for all residents. It does not offend any 24401 Eileen Brooks Staunton High School particular group. 24401 William Brooks Queen City High School Staunton High School Schooly McSchool Face Its not racist

He’s a settler of the area and we once 24401 Linda Brooks Queen City High School John Lewis High School had our middle school named after him 22980 Josh Brooks Robert E Lee High School Its a good name Because he is making america great 24440 Tom Brooks Staunton High School Donald J. Trump High School again! Staunton High School is easily recognizable as belonging to this 24401 Carlton Brooks Staunton High School community. 24401 Kim Brooks Valley High School No other options Staunton high school is a name that represents the entire city. Rich and Poor. Black and White. Whether you are new to Staunton or you've lived here your whole life. It represents who 24401 Thomas Brooks Staunton High School we are. Leaders Excellence The second one fits and doesn’t raise 24401 Dwayne Brooks Staunton High School Education High School taxes Did not want name change but since it has been voted upon, favor a neutral 24401 Brenda Brooks Staunton High School name. 24401 Dathan Brotherton Queen City High School cause Because it is Staunton's high school. There are many high schools in the 24401 kathy Brown Queen City High School Staunton High School shenandoah valley

24401 Jack Brown Staunton High School Its a high school and it is in Staunton

24401 Michael Brown Staunton High School Constitution High School It was my daughter's idea and I like it. 24401 Jamal Brown Queen City High School Lee High it's brand new 24401 Jamal Brown Queen City High School lee high sounds better than the others

Something neutral in scope and related to the area around us makes more sense than directly relating the name to 24401 Evan Brown Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School any one particular person. Because there is nothing wrong with Marianne Brown Robert E. Lee High School the name it has. 24401 Jamal Brown Queen City High School Lee High We already had staunton high 24401 Jamal Brown Queen City High School Lee High Cool name 24401 Jennifer Brown Queen City High School It sounds nice 24401 Aarian Brown Queen City High School its cool 24401 Noah Brown Queen City High School Brown high school It’s tuff

ALL students will be representing and represented by STAUNTON. as UNITY. as a WHOLE. When students travel for out of city activities, when they say they are from STAUNTON, conversations will mention all that STAUNTON has to offer. WIN WIN . ALL STUDENTS AND STAFF AND THE COMMUNITY WILL ALL REPRESENT 24401 Jason Brown Staunton High School "STAUNTON" The Consitution is what repersents us as a whole. Freedom is for us being to Consitution High School open our previousely closed wings and 24401 Eliana Brown Shenandoah Valley High School Freedom High School fly free like birds. It should be a public decision, not a 24482 Kevin Brown school board decision.

There is no reason what so ever to change this high schools name, and if you are going to do so you need to get the residence opinions on it and let them vote. It’s our kids attending the 24401 Alyssa Brown Robert E. Lee High School school, and we didn’t even get a say. 24401 Abria Brown Queen City High School none idk

24401 Ciara Brown Lee High Because i never should be changed at all Leave well enough alone. Use the money for something that really 24401 Sarah Brown Robert E Lee matters.

Queen City has been promoted by a majority of the kids at R.E. Lee and I’m for any name that’s inclusive. 2.) Booker T. Washington has so much relevance to our city and will make the 24401 Kyiam Brown Queen City High School Booker T. Washington aura more welcoming than R.E. Lee was. 24421 Jason Brown Brown Lee High Takes what's offensive out 24401 Ciara Brown Queen City High School Colors can stay the same. If we have to get rid of the old name, I think we should go with a neutral and historic name. Queen City, Shenandoah, and Valley are not unique 24401 Mary-Faye Browning Staunton High School to our special town.

I chose this name because Robert E. Lee may have been a general for the south but he didn't support slavery also he was a person who supported education so we should think about the 24401 Charles Browning ROBERT E. LEE HIGH SCHOOL good things of him not the bad.

24401 Richard Brownley Queen City High School Great name. Reflects city image better 24401 Chris Bruce R. E. Lee Keep the name I think the city nickname, Queen's City is nice, and Staunton HS was original. 24486 Janette Brunk Queen City High School Staunton High School The both work well. I like both of those names because I think they are just simple names and 24401 Damoni Brunson Queen City High School Staunton High School no not extra kind of names. We are in the middle of the 24401 Marquis Brunson Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School N/A Shenandoah Valley. We are in the middle of the Shenadoah 24401 Marquis Brunson Shenandoah Valley High School N/A Valley

24401 Preston Brust Queen City High School Francis Collins High School Sounds super cool You cannot erase history no matter 24460 Dave Bryant Past History High School what you do. 24401 Shelley Bryant Staunton High School Most appropriate Man who was a huge inspiration, great teacher and man to all kids that went to Staunton city schools like I did back in 24430 marla Bryant Hunter Talbott high school my day. 24401 Ayzia Bryant Staunton High School Lee high school The name has memories behind it

Cant keep it the way it is so may as well keep the butt hurt generation happy and change it right. Forget about 22980 Elizabeth Bryant Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton high school history that irrelevant anymore

24401 Nicholas Bryant Queen City High School Staunton High School Geographically accurate, Staunton pride 24401 Paige Bryant Staunton High School Original name Makes the most sense. Other high schools bear the name of the city in which they are located, so this should be no different. Keep the Lee mascot and colors and call them the Generals 24401 Irvine Bryant Staunton High School to save money

The Queen City name is original and different. I believe it represents our town and the history. Also believe it makes the school relative to the city. Plus you cannot say the Queen City Ducks (ducks because of Gypsy Hill and the football stadium.) doesn't sound amazing. Thank you for your time.Sincerely a former student and 24401 Isom Bryant Queen City High School Queen City High graduate. Robert E Lee High School is my first 24401 Chris Buchanan Shenandoah Valley High School Lee High school choice. Woodrow Wilson High 24421 Regan Buchanan Queen City High School Staunton High School School Just cause Because we shouldn't change history. 22842 Lynn Buchanan Robert E Lee It's part of the past. Original name; very clear where it’s 24401 Kay Buchanan Staunton High School located I believe we need to keep the name - it should not be changed unless a vote by all Staunton citizens indicates a majority want it changed. This is too important to let 0a small number 24401 Leslie Buchanan Robert E. Lee High School decide. 24401 Jack Buck Staunton High School More appropriate option I don’t think it should be changed but myself along with many other Lee graduates and future graduates don’t 24401 Jackie Buck Queen City High School Paul Hatcher High get a say. 27615 Jessica Buddenbaum Queen City High School Staunton High School Obama high It used to be Staunton High School, so at least there is some history involved 24401 Marsha Buehner Staunton High School in that name choice. 24401 Katelyn Bugden Staunton High School Because it’s in Staunton 24401 Olivia Bullock Queen City High School It’s the best name ever

Staunton High School is about as standard and simple as it gets. It will be an issue no matter what name it 24401 Amanda Bunch Staunton High School None!!! happens to be changed to. Good luck! 24401 serenity bunch Queen City High School it soudns good 24401 Serenity Bunch Queen City High School Paul Hatcher Highschool Suits staunton

I think Staunton High School would suit the school well and be uncontroversial. I also think Francis Collins is a Staunton native we can actually be proud of and would be worthy of having a school 24401 Tyler Burch Staunton High School Francis Collins High School named after him. Mr. Frank, former superintendent, was chiefly responsible for moving Lee High to its current location from its former site near Gypsy Hill Park. It was a difficult political decision as many favored leaving the school at its original site, despite many physical limitations of that site and the cost of renovating the building. Mr. Frank's consolidation of the two junior high schools and converting the Lewis Jr. High into a "new" Lee High proved to be a wise decision. Two other city schools are named for former superintendents: Shelburne Middle and Thomas McSwain Elementary. I can think of no one more deserving. I urge you to name your high school Kenneth B. 22601 Glenn Burdick Kenneth B. Frank High School Frank High School.

I chose Staunton High and Queen City High because they are the accurate, specific, and should stand the test of time. Please do not choose a person to name the school after, they almost never hold up. A descriptive name, like "Endeavor High School" could also work. It is aspirational, both current 24401 Kelly Burdick Queen City High School Staunton High School Endeavor High School and forward looking. This name is Staunton-specific & is not 24401 Sally Burger Staunton High School controversial.

23451 Maggie Burke Staunton High School T.J. Collins or Francis Collins 1. Old name and 2,3. Local History Accurate representation of the 24401 Kitty Burke Queen City High School Staunton High School community.

He graduated from Lee and worked on 24401 Jessica Burke Staunton High School Francis Collins the Human Genome Project queen city high sounds good and 24401 Judah Burkholder Queen City High School Staunton High School no other suggestions Staunton high I like too. 24401 Samuel Burkholder Queen City High School It is a good fit

It goes well with Staunton city and is interesting rather than naming it “Staunton city high school” if were the Queen City royals royals it allows us to 24401 Addison Burkholder Queen City High School keep the color blue as well

I graduated from this school over 10 years ago as well as many people in my family and I think it is absolutely absurd to change the name of a high school that has been around for over a 24401 Travis Burner Robert E Lee High School hundred years. Restore the name to the original! Stay 24401 James Burnett Staunton High School awesome! -Jim Burnett 24401 Bree Burnett Staunton High School It should return to what it once was Queen City and Staunton High are 24401 Sara Burnette Queen City High School Staunton High School accurate description of the area.

The other names are either already in use by surrounding counties or have been used before. Staunton is proud to be called Queen City so I think that we should use the name Queen City High School. The name is also unbiased, and pleasant. The name will also age well throughout the years and will likely never be changed again, saving tax payer dollars from having to ever 24401 Kaila Burns Queen City High School Queen City High School change the name again. To represent our town and the history 24401 Jessica Burns Queen City High School of staunton

Because that was the former name and 24401 Kristie Burns Staunton High School should have never been changed Strong, female educator born and 22980 Matt Burns Queen City High School Cora M. Hudson High raised in Staunton 24401 Jonathan Burns Shenandoah Valley High School Unity High School To bring everyone together

There is a Staunton River High School in Moneta, VA. Staunton Booker Lee High School is a joining of the names of the former black & white high schools. I've lived in Staunton for 25 yrs. I grew up in Waynesboro. My 2 children went to Staunton Booker Lee High Lee. If we lose the name Lee, all 24401 Eileen Burns School together, we lose our identity. It represents our city and It represents our city and the history of 24401 Jessica Burns Queen City High School the history of our town or town 24401 Kieya Burns Queen City High School Kieya I think it fits this area very well. it would fit the school very, and people would take great pride in having such a 24401 Tay Burress Queen City High School unique name Benjamin A. Shapiro Institute for Manlet 24401 George Bush Education Good name

Could you name it after the first superintendent? That way you honor a person who had a vested interest in the education of the citizens of Staunton. Not majorly in favor of the change due to the expense involved. I also see it as a part of history and I am an educator and advocate Lee was an amazing supporting the education of Staunton’s 22408 Virginia Bushman Staunton High School Virginian. citizens. Keep the colors. Dont change Should have kept the old everything to appease a few. This 24401 Daniel Bussiere Staunton High School name. whole thing is a joke. Let it be Staunton High. Queen City should not be on the survey. Queen City is named after Lady Rebecca Staunton the wife of VA Governor. They too were slave owners so, it would be political incorrect to name the school after a female slave owner. When it comes down to things being named after slave owners this has opened my eyes that the city of Staunton should be renamed bc it offends me & others knowing Rebecca 24401 Lou Ann Bussiere Staunton High School Staunton was a slave owner. Keep the blue and white 24401 Tyler Bussiere Staunton High School colors Queen city is equally if not more racist I think it uniquely represents the place 24401 Adrienne Butler Queen City High School we live.

I am part of the class of 1979. It's crazy to change a name that has been that since before 1950. The name doesn't 24477 Patricia Butler LEE HIGH SCHOOL change history. Leave it alone.

Doesn’t matter what we say y’all have already decided what it will be. Hope it 24401 Brian Butler Staunton High School Lee back fires in all of your faces 24401 Kara Butler Queen City High School Staunton is the Queen City 24401 Laura Butler Queen City High School Staunton High School Because it represents Staunton!! I would like to see the mascot changed to The 24401 Sarah Butterfield Staunton High School Patriot It is the most fitting.

24401 Poopy Butthead Donald J. Trump Highschool Donald Godking

Because it’s the nickname of Staunton and it’s neutral. The school could go by Queen City Royals for sports teams and 24430 Arch Buzzard Queen City High School N/A what not The school is located in Staunton. It 24401 Tom Byerly Staunton High School N/A represents the city. Staunton has been nicknamed the Queen City and it would be nice to have 22939 Mary Byram Queen City High School that identifier. These men gave so much to our city. 24401 Debbie Byrd Statler High Very positive role models

Choose the city name to correlate with the rest of the high school named being the location they are in. Blue Ridge 24401 Lisa Byrd Staunton High School Blue Ridge high school gives you the virtual location 24018 Abby Byrd Staunton High School The school is in Staunton

Queen City takes forward from past names. It creates conversation. Queen City in Staunton, why that name. It is 24401 Dianne Byrer Queen City High School the Queen City. Move in a new direction and still 24401 John Byrer Queen City High School maintain identity Queen city and Staunton are both great Barack Obama Memorial names that don't invoke the memory of 24401 Shawn C Queen City High School Staunton High School High School the Jim Crow south 24401 David C Valley High School Robert E Lee It really didn’t need to change 24401 Crystal C Robert E Lee High School It’s part of Stauntons history

24401 H C Staunton High School Lee high school (none above) History. Can’t change the facts 24401 Rachel C Staunton High School Original name 24401 Christina Cacciapaglia Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Most descriptive of the area At least keep some form of history in 22980 Erica Cacciapaglia Staunton High School N/a the school’s name

Staunton High School makes the most sense because like many other high schools in the area, the name is based 24401 Anna Cahill Staunton High School directly on the location of the school. 24401 Conor Cahill Queen City High School Unique It's the name of the town that it is in, 24401 Steve Cahill Staunton High School not a nick name.

Hitlers school for friendship Because I don’t agree with the name 24401 Jacob Call Queen City High School and happiness change but that’s the best new option

Compromise. If we can find common 24401 james Call Lee High Schooi ground, great things will happen. 22801 Hannah Call Queen City High School It sounds nice 22321 Kelly Callahan Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Cool There was nothing wrong with the 24401 Danielle Callihan Staunton High School Robert E Lee High School name previous. Don’t change it!

“What a cruel thing war is...to fill our hearts with hatred instead of love for 24401 Eric Camden Robert E. Lee High School our neighbors” - Robert E. Lee

Because liberals are stupid. Rename 22485 Brian Cameron RE Lee High School America next? What about currency? 24401 Anthony Campbell Robert E. Lee Waste of taxpayers money. If your gonna spend the money to change it then name it after the town 24401 Kristy Campbell Staunton High School Lee high school so history don’t repeat itself 24401 James Campbell Queen City High School its dope 24421 Ellen Campbell Robert E Lee Because the others offended me.

Staunton High School was the school’s original name, and is more inclusive of the city’s diverse population than the 24401 William Campbell Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Staunton High School! racist Robert E. Lee High School. Bc it's been in staunton va for a long 24401 David Campbell Staunton High School time 24477 Dylan Campbell Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School They sound the best

24401 Jenni Campbell Lee High School Keep part of the name without the hurt. 22980 Brittany Campbell Shenandoah Valley High School Na Sounds better Queers play football at Queen City High School. thats why queen city is wrong choice. let's look at the BIG PICTURE 24401 John Campbell Staunton High School for EVERYONE

22980 Allison Campbell Queen City High School Valley High School Barack Obama High School Shows forward progression 24401 Tammy Campbell Staunton High School Staunton is my home I graduated from Robert E Lee, nothing Robert E Lee (you can’t will change the past...it’s HISTORY change the past by changing spend our money in making the future 24477 Teresa Campbell the name) better and quit worrying about our past Lee is a historical figure, if you don't like the countries history both good and bad, you don't belong in this 24401 Otis Campbell Staunton High School Gen. Robert E. Lee High country. Queen City and Staunton High are 24421 Ashley Campbell Queen City High School Staunton High School Paul Hatcher High School more unique to Staunton Name should represent the locality 24401 Adam Campbell Staunton High School (geography based). 24477 Sarah Campbell Staunton High School No They are located in Staunton Because Queen City is another name for Staunton and if we’re the Queen City royals we can keep our royal blue 24401 Karla Campbell Queen City High School color.

24482 Kevin Campbell Donald J Trump high school Current president and maga 22980 Amy Campbell Queen City High School We are the queen city Staunton High School is simple, noncontroversial, and reflects the city 24401 Amanda Campbell Staunton High School in which we all chose to live.

Sounded the best, when I think of valley high school I feel like that should be in the county. Staunton tells you where it’s at and hopefully the city name won’t change so this issue won’t 24401 Natalie Campbell Queen City High School Staunton High School cost the tax payers money ever again. If it can't be Lee, Staunton seems the most fit. We are from Staunton and it would match local schools, ie 24401 Heather Campbell Staunton High School Waynesboro High, etc 24421 Fay Campbell Valley High School Robert E Lee High School It Hurts to have it changed 24401 Becca Campbell Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School They have a good ring to it The other options sounded awkward. The ones I selected seemed better for rolling off the tongue and remembering 24440 Alyssa Cannaday Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School it. It is simple and true to our location and it restores the original. Memorial names are generally an easy, short- term "solution" that can lead to 24401 Cass Cannon Staunton High School Valley High School problems later on. Marc Cantrell Queen City High School Valley high school Because it’s cool

24401 Francesco Canu Queen City High School Abraham Lincoln High School The least worst of all

I picked Valley High School because its 24401 Peyton Caplette Valley High School a name that will fit everyone.

It kinda leaves controversial people out of it (KINDA) and it has a nice ring to it. It sounds like something I'd be proud to be a part of, and the mascot definitely 24401 Margaret Carbajal Queen City High School has more potential than a "Leeman." It is the name of the wonderful city of Staunton and is the only high school in 24401 Karen Card Staunton High School Staunton. They represent the city in whihc the 24401 Thomas Cardarella Queen City High School Staunton High School school is located. 22801 Robert Carneal Queen City High School I like it the most #4 choices are stupid! Save money & leave it just Lee High School, let the heritage live on. I will FOREVER be a 24401 Karen Carpenter Queen City High School Lee High School LEE graduate

I choose this name because high school 24401 Adam Carpenter Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Valley High School Frame High school is the frame to our grown up life's

24401 Carolyn Carpenter Staunton High School It was the original name of the school 24401 Lois Carpenter Queen City High School That’s what everyone calls the city

Paul Hatcher permanently stamped Robert E. Lee High School in the Virginia High School League record books. His legacy on the court and in Paul Hatcher Memorial High the city of Staunton is history you all 24401 Michael Carper School will never be able to change. 24401 Camon Carr Queen City High School Staunton High School Highlander Hgh School they seem good for the area. Queen! Lady power! Feminine 24401 Shona Carr Queen City High School influence! First choice, LEE; second 24401 Cheryl Carroll Staunton High School choice, Staunton HS Personal preference

My top choice is Staunton HS because it represents our town, a place to be 24401 Leighton Carruth Shenandoah High School Staunton High School proud of, and everyone who lives here. The only one that can have an 24401 Virginia Carter Queen City High School Robert E. Lee High School acceptable school mascot.

Staunton High is the most identifiable name - all others are confusing and do 24401 Lorien Carter Staunton High School not hold meaning for the town.

I chose this name because it represents what Staunton is, and it doesn't sound basic. If you think about it, most of the other city's are just named after the place they live in, and not something 24401 Sarah Carter Queen City High School specific to their town. My reason is that the school name 24401 Nick Carter Robert E. Lee High School should not change.

Respectively represents 24401 Laura Carter Queen City High School Staunton High School Stanton,Virginia high school for ALL. It would be an easier transition for the name as so many changes would and will have to be made If its drastically 24401 Tabitha Carter Queen City High School Lee High School changed

I think those names sound good and 24401 Jasmynne Carter Queen City High School Shenandoah High School will give a positive start to the school

Went to school there and was Director 24477 Cody Carter Queen City High School Francis Collins High School of the National Institutes of Health Francis Collins is not only a native Stauntonian but a world renowned scientist. Naming the school after him would not only honor a Staunton resident but help foster a love of science in the students. It's a name we can all be proud of! *this survey keeps giving me a error message when just trying to write in a name, that should 24485 Angus Carter Queen City High School Francis Collins High be fixed. Queen City High represents the remaining and new students as a whole and just seems like a great move 24401 Mary Carter Queen City High School forward. Erasing Confederate names needs to 23139 Teresa Carver Robert E Lee High School STOP!

I just think this name sounds better 24401 Emily Carwell Queen City High School than any of the other names. 34285 Jonathan Case Staunton High School School resides in Staunton

I went to lee, most athletic items already say "Lee high". Drop the Robert e. The man opposed slavery so your reason for changing the name is invalid. 24486 Jessica Case Lee high school Check your history books

Non of the ones listed were that great. But if your going to change the name of my Alma mater, then you should change the name of anything in Staunton that is named after someone 24482 Crystal Case Staunton High School Blue ridge high school historical. Be consistent, not selective. 24401 Jeffrey Casey Queen City High School Staunton High School nothing nothing No matter what this will always be 24459 Misty Cash Lee High School FAMLEE! Fellow former Stauntonian who is 24401 Amy Cash TJ Collins HS doing amazing things in science! 24477 Ray Cash Robert E Lee High School Because we didn't get to vote on it. 24401 Patrick Cash Shenandoah High School Appalachian High School Appalachian Mtns. in the area.

Dr. Collins has accomplished great things for all people through his work on the Human Genome Project. Many new medical treatments that target specific diseases or risk factors for disease have been developed and discovered to aid the medical community in treating and curing many Dr. Francis Collins High aliments that were not possible before 24401 Paula Cash School his work. The school was originally Staunton High School. It’s the name of the city. It’s really an easy concept that many people will get behind. Staunton High School will be the only option to not a 22980 Trevor Cash Staunton High School Staunton High School giant split They are self explanitory and 24401 Amanda Cashatt Queen City High School Staunton High School descriptive. Sheandoah is a town north of Harrisonburg. That’s just confusing for 24401 Steven Cashatt Queen City High School people.

I choose Staunton High School because the high school is in Staunton. My understanding is that Staunton's high school was once called Staunton High School. Many people in the community already call it Staunton. The youth sports are called Staunton. Stanton High school is the only name that 24401 Alyssa Cason Staunton High School makes sense. because people just want a reason to 24477 tucker cason robert e lee high complain tell them to suck it up 24401 Serenity Cason Queen City High School It sounds the best

Mr. Hatcher,s name is synonymous with the school where he worked for so many years. He is a well know pillar of our community. His dedication should 24401 Bruce Cason Paul Hatcher High School be recognized with a grand gesture. Staunton makes sense because of the city in which Lee is located. Queen City has a nice ring to it. The Shenandoah names could be confused with 24401 Abigail Cassell Queen City High School Staunton High School Shenandoah county. Because it shows that we as a school 24401 Jeremiah Castillo Queen City High School are more like a monarchy.

Queen City High School embodies the 24401 Ashleigh Castro Queen City High School history of Staunton and is unique.

Its different and what i was thinking to 24477 Shelly Catterton Queen City High School suggest and you already had

Staunton high is simple and non-bias in anyway because it’s literally the name of the town, by Queen City is more fun and creative and allows history to show through the name without it being 24477 Caitlin Catterton Queen City High School Staunton High School named after a confederate general  24401 Blea Caul Queen City High School Blea Caul Blea Caul 24401 ajablea caul Queen City High School time for change because there ios a lot of places in staunton that has the name queen 24401 emysja caul Queen City High School city’s nit

Stop giving in to everyone offended! The name is history. Teach it! Because 24401 Suzanne Cecchini Robert E. Lee High School you can’t change it! He is the most accomplished person from the school and is known 22903 Erik Chadwell Francis Collins High nationally.

All of the options are awful!!! Name the 24401 Lexie Chadwell Francis Collins High School school after someone noteworthy. Calling it just Lee would make the most sense. Everyone knows it by that name. Uniforms would have to be changed 24401 Bree Chambers Staunton High School Lee High School and money spent that is unnecessary Keep it Lee but drop the association of 24401 Cheryl Chambers Staunton High School Lee High Scool Robert E. Dennis Chan Staunton High School Simple 22980 emalee chandler Queen City High School bc it’s queen city

The expense of changing the name is 94305 Doug Chandler Robert E. Lee ridiculous. The school board are idiots. 24401 Chase Chandler Queen City High School Staunton High School Location based - all inclusive.

Staunton High school fits and won’t offend anyone. Ronald Reagan High because he was a great American, he loved the country, and he was great Ronald W. Reagan High president. Albeit there was nothing 24401 Frankie Chandler Staunton High School School wrong with Lee high.

He's a programmer of color who has ended his life early before he could make his dream come true of being a major programmer, I would like this to be the name too inspire all people of color as well as bring awareness to Terry Davis Memorial High mental health and inspire more people 24401 Adam Chang School of color to enter STEM. 24401 Dont Change Valley High School Dont do it Remember history 24401 Dawn Chaplin Queen City High School Nice ring to it I chose this name because I feel it 24401 Manny Chapman Queen City High School Staunton High School represent the downtown Staunton.

There's no sense in spending tax payer 24441 Daniel Chapman money to rename the school! Donald Trump saved me from getting 24401 Ray Charles Donald J. Trump High School mugged. 24401 Jess Charnov Staunton High School That's what it was named before... 24401 robert chastain "no name change" because I pay the taxes here. 24401 linda chastain should remain Robert E Lee It makes the most sense with re- branding and its what the students 24401 Nicole Chelgren Queen City High School Lee High School want. I think in these times a message of 22801 Laura Chew Queen City High School Unity High School unity would be nice.

24401 Bree Childress Valley High School Valley high school has a nice ring to it

I'd prefer the school be named for a local figure who represents academic achievement, advancement of knowledge, and significant 24401 Jason Childs Francis Collins High School contributions to humanity. Queen City High School sounds cool and says something about our history. And Staunton High School is simple and I like Queen City and makes sense just because its our city 24401 Faith Chipps Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton High School. we live in. It just sounds good sense we gotta 24401 Jay Chisley Queen City High School none change the name I think this sounds really good as a school and its everyehere around 24401 Daytyia Chisley Queen City High School staunton. 24401 Rick Chittum Staunton High School It’s the best description. General Thomas J Stonewall Only right. Remove one great, replace 22401 Chris Chris Jackson HS w another.

His designs helped to build this city and 100 years later his work is still marveled. Not to mention his firm lasted over a hundred years with his 24401 Bill Christ T.J. Collins High School sons and grandsons running it. 24401 Rachel Christian Queen City High School Because I like the sound of it 24401 Mary Church Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School They represent the area

Celebrated Staunton native and Lee 24401 Lynne Cimino Staunton High School Francis Collins High School alumnis lauded for his Gnome research. You are only changing the name because you are afraid of political Tired Citizen Staunton High School Staunton Sell Outs image. This is shameful.

John Lewis- to restore that building back to it's original name. Shenandoah Valley High - it is generic enough to hopefully not hurt anyone while at least acknowledging what area of the 24401 Pat Claffey Shenandoah Valley High School John Lewis High School state it is in. 24401 Steven Claiborne Staunton High School Staunton City high school It the best choice 24401 brayden clark Queen City High School staunton city high cause our city Shenandoah Valley Names that can represent the entire 24401 Lee Clark Shenandoah High School Prepatory Academy community

Robert e Lee . Stop changing 22849 Gabrielle Clark our history you dumb fucks! Stop changing our history

I don't feel it should be given a new name, but rather given back its original name. And also, it's a neutral name... Hopefully by doing so, it will cause fewer disagreements/less resentment from those who wish to see it remain R.E. Lee. I see no reason for prolonging this issue/disagreement by trying to decide on another person to name it after. Staunton High School...it just seems the "fairest" choice for both 24482 Veronica Clark Staunton High School sides of the debate.

24401 Gerri Clark Staunton High School Frances Collins HighSchool The first was the original name 24401 Dylan Clark Staunton High School ROBERT E LEE Shouldn't be changed

All other City schools in the area go by the locality name might as well do same for Staunton since people are overly sensitive and we can't keep the one it has had for decades. You do realize you 24401 Amanda Clark Staunton High School none can't erase history, right? A brilliant person who has made such 22980 Heather Clark Staunton High School Francis Collins High School an impact

24401 Anne Clarke Statler High School Who doesn’t love our Statler Brothers? Honored native Representatives of 24401 Mark Clarke Statler High School Staunton. Best name from limited selection 24401 Jerry Clarke Staunton High School N/A offered.

Because changing the name was the most ignorant idea that the school board could’ve possibly voted to pass. It’s wasting resources and cash flow that could be spent actually providing education for students. And myself and 75% of the biting citizens will remember this when elections for 24401 Shawn Clatterbaugh Robert E. Lee High School school board officials come around. Cause y’all stupid for changing it. 24401 Samantha Clatterbaugh Staunton High School keep it ROBERT E LEE nobody cares It sounds like a good name instead of 24401 Kyle Clayville Queen City High School the other. It's the historic name of the school, 24401 Andrew Clem Staunton High School something everyone can agree on.

Queen City HS draws on Staunton's past as the Queen City and is more interesting than Staunton HS. It also gives more character to the school. I suggest not naming the school for an individual at this time due to the contentious times the community has just been through. Thanks for your 24401 Catharine Clem Queen City High School Staunton High School none hard work!

Its always been Robert E.Lee!! That’s been a part of the valley district for generations! Plus if you keep it the same you will save the tax payers a hefty amount of money for something that is not needed! Tax payers money could be used for better purposes (First Responders/Teacher Raises?). It’s just waste of money to change name of 24441 Shannon Clem Robert E. Lee school!!! It’s the one I like best if there has to be 24401 Dottie Clem Staunton High School a change

It sounds much better than “Staunton” or something. Being interesting with a 24401 Grace Clem Queen City High School John Lewis High School nod back to who we are as a city. Keeps Staunton history but isn’t 24401 Joseph Clem Queen City High School Nope offensive

24401 Roger Clements Staunton High School Barack Obama High School To honor our first black president

These are the best descriptive names 24401 John clemmer Queen City High School Staunton High School representing the city’s high school. 24401 Richard Clemmer Queen City High School Might as well be a bunch of queens 24401 Robert Clemmer Queen City High School WE ARE THE QUEEN CITY!!! Beautifully represents a part of history 24401 Rachel Clemmer Queen City High School Queen City High School that we all can be proud of. 24401 Joseph Clemmer Staunton High School It's generic. 24401 Casey Clifton Queen City High School Robert E. Lee High School I like it  24482 Meghan Clifton Valley High School Inclusive

This name is American history that can not be erased. Changing the school name cause some people claim to be offend is wrong. You all are wrong and 24441 Lee Clifton Robert E. Lee high a disgrace to the American people. KEEP IT THE SAME!!!! WHY 24441 Daphne Clifton Staunton High School CHANGE IT? WHY TAKE HISTORY AWAY? This name eliminates further issue. It follows the name of the city in which we live. What dispute can come with 24401 Janet Clifton Staunton High School No other that.

24430 Megan Cline Staunton High School Staunton City High School I just feel like it should be in the city she was an important part of local 22812 bill cline margaret sanger high history

24401 Zayda Cline R.E Lee High School There is no need to change the name. 24401 Loretta Cline Staunton High School Robert E Lee High School Original name changed in 1914 Coach t was an inspiration to many 23455 Melanie Cline Talbott high school people in the area 24401 Bill Clinton Schooley McSchool Face Zzzzzz 24401 Patricia Cobalt Valley High School Robert E. Lee History 24401 Eric Cobb Staunton High School School board high school They are the ones wanting change

Shenandoah doesnt naked sense. It isnt 24401 Whit Coff Staunton High School the only high school in the valley. They are from Staunton and fairly 23663 jeff coffey Shenandoah High School Statler Brothers High School known to the community. There’s nothing wrong with the name as it is. Bunch of cowards caving into 22980 Ralph Coffey Staunton High School Robert E Lee pressure IDIOTS 24482 Lizz Coffey Queen City High School Lee High Should keep it how it is It seems to make sense to return to the 24437 Beverley Coffman Staunton High School original name. 24401 Lindsey Coffman Lee High Good strong name R. E. Lee high school should 22980 Kassey Coffman-Lucas Queen City High School Staunton High School remain the name Sounds not as boring as the rest

LEE (leaders of excellence 24401 Devin Cogar Queen City High School and education) It sounds the best? 24477 Ellie Coggins Staunton High School Former Name of the School

(1) Staunton High was the name of the high school before the Jim Crow era. (2) My organization, the American Shakespeare Center, came into being partly as a way to spread far and wide the name of this special place, and I think that claiming with pride the name of Staunton for our high school is in the economic interest of the entire 24401 Ralph Cohen Staunton High School community. I think that our High School should be named after our city. We live in a beautiful city and our school should 24401 Rayenel Coiner Staunton High School reflect that.

there is no reason to change the name from what it is. focus on making the education better before focusing on a 24401 Micah Coiner Staunton High School Robert E. Lee useless name change 24401 Jake Colavita Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Valley High School hmh 24401 Sierra Colby Queen City High School Valley High School Gypsy Hill High School Sounds good 22980 Dave Cole Valley High School My opinion It's the name of our town. It makes 24401 Heather Cole Staunton High School Staunton United High School sense!

Staunton High School directly connects the school to the city and unless the city changes its name at some point in the future rheir will be no disconnect. The other names offered could be in any number of communities in the Valley or are tied to a specific nickname for the city which could change or fall 24401 Chuck Cole Staunton High School out of use. 24401 Ashley Cole Staunton High School Simple and to the point Because changing the Lee name was 24401 Piper Cole Queen City High School Lee High School stupid. 24402 Michael Coleman Robert E Lee Because it’s a good name Non-controversial name that denotes the location of the school in Staunton, 24401 Moira Coleman Staunton High School Virginia. 22401 Dylan Coleman Robert E lee Keep the name the same It has been and should remain our name to reflect our proud southern 24401 lisa coles Robert E Lee high school heratage 22980 Martin Collins Ricky Bobby high school Shake and bake local hero, pro science, school 24467 Rosalind Collins Queen City High School Francis Collins High School graduate, apology to Lacks family 24401 Anthony Colon Queen City High School Sounds the best

All of the other names kind of seemed bland and uninteresting, while Queen 24401 Bryce Colson Queen City High School City High School sounds a lot better.

24401 Amelia Coltrane Staunton High School The high school is located in Staunton 1.Because I like those names and I hate the thought of even changing the name 24401 Madison Colvin Shenandoah Valley High School in the frist place.

Historical name due to this area being a huge part of the civil war era. Lee was a great man. Stop trying to erase history because a few people are offended 24437 Jake Colvin Robert E. Lee High School with no logical reason. That is all.

As I understand Staunton’s history, the name of the school prior to the 1920’s was Staunton High School. Even if it 24401 Logan Combee Staunton High School wasn’t, the name is logical and clear. 24401 Jessica Combs Staunton High School Keep it simple 22827 Donald Comer Staunton High School Statler High

I see nothing wrong with the current name, and believe it should stay the 22851 Tiffani Comer Robert E. Lee High School same as it always has been.

22827 Gerry Comer Staunton High School Statler High Very prominent group from Staunton

22980 Justin Comer Donald J. Trump High School America's greatest President. #MAGA 22802 Megan Comfort Staunton High School Booker high school G

I don't like the names that I had to vote 24401 Cody Comisford Queen City High School Staunton High School Obama High on but they sound better than the rest. Bc it cannot claim the valley:too many other schools in the valley. Its in 24401 Sarah Conder Staunton High School staunton

The city of Staunton is known for being called “Queen City” so I think it would sound nice. Also it sounds like a nice 24401 Isabella Conley Queen City High School school when you say it or here it.

Staunton is the actual name of the city 24401 Caroline Conlon Queen City High School Staunton High School and Queen has a positive connotation 8901 Jonathan Connelly Staunton High School The most fitting 24401 Timothy Conner Valley High School Royal High Not boring 98021 Jeff Conner Jeff Conner Yeet Because it should have to be changed 24401 Meghan Conner Staunton High School Robert e Lee high school after all these years! To me Waynesboro High school is basic, if you have to change it Staunton High school would be the most basic 22980 Amanda Conner Staunton High School Staunton City Public School and make most sense. 22980 Travis Conner Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School History It should be staying the same not being 24486 Christa Conner Staunton High School Robert E Lee changed!!!!

Francis Collins is a prominent alumnus of the high school. He was the leader on the human genome project which has led to significant advances in medical and biologic research. He is someone students and the community can look at as a role model. Truly, I believe he can inspire students by showing them that even they are going to a school that helped foster this 24401 Amy Conner Francis S. Collins High School leader.

You wont have to change much, and 24401 Christopher Connolly LEE HIGH most of the alumni call it that anyway. It is the original name, it makes the 24467 Janice Converse Staunton High School most sense. Queen City is another name for 22953 Rachael Coogan Queen City High School Staunton. It’s perfect. 24401 Michelle Cook Staunton High School Best one 24401 Clark Cook Queen City High School Historically Correct 24401 Tonya Cook Queen City High School Historic. In the end it is only a name and it is the teachers the students and the community which seems pretty divided 24401 Taulsa Cook Queen City High School Malcolm lee high right now 24401 Hailey Cook Queen City High School Its fits well

Other schools in area named for location. Staunton High School is not appropriate as it does not show us moving forward and Lady Staunton and 24401 Myra Cook Valley High School her husband also owned slaves. I just think history shouldn't totally be erased from a High School that started out with a piece of history attached. Maybe with just the name Lee High it would be more of a memory for the 24482 Paula Cook Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School LEE HIGH SCHOOL alumni. 24401 Lisa Cook Francis Collins He actually made a difference 24401 Sarah Cooke Staunton High School Back to basics 22664 Jim Cooley Staunton High School United High School We should stand united. Together 24401 Rebecca Coombs Staunton High School Return to the original name.

It's sounds more unique than other schools. Also if are the Queen City High School Royals or some variation of that Queen City High School name, we can keep the color scheme, 24401 Adeline Cooper Queen City High School Royals mascots can be a king and a queen Has the best sound and represents our 24401 Zachary Cooper Queen City High School community. Then they can be the fighting knights, 24401 Melissa Cooper Queen City High School or the queen's knights.

It's historically correct. Plus it is a simple ID for when our various teams, 24401 Faye Cooper Staunton High School whether academic or athletic are from. 24401 Mike Copeland Staunton High School easy None--- I hope the Lee 24401 David Copper Staunton High School mural is removed The right thing to do He saw no color or race just what are 24401 Michael Corbett J H Talbott High School future could be. Gary Corbett Staunton High School Staunton Only smart name to suit me 24401 Geraldine Corbett Staunton High School Dont like the other options

Due to our area, I feel no other name is related to our school. I feel as if Turning it to "Staunton high school" would just 24401 Jayda Corbin Staunton High School Staunton city make more sense It is the least controversial and Shenandoah anything doesn't make 24401 Dawn Corbin Staunton High School sense to me 22827 Isabella Corbo Queen City High School Queen City encompasses the town I feel the names represent Staunton's 24401 Lisa Corbo Queen City High School Staunton High School identity. We should be we the Queen City 24401 Alice Cormier Queen City High School Royals!!!! I think one of the two I picked would be 24401 Larissa Cormier Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School appropriate Im not happy about the name change but queen city high sounds better out 24401 Stefanie Cormier Queen City High School Robert E Lee high school of the suggested names Its a non-biased name decision and sounds very unique and well suited 24401 Whit Cotter Queen City High School Staunton. 55016 Andrew Cotton K.O. West High School Yes 24477 Jim Covington Staunton City High No 24401 Emma Cox Queen City High School Nah It’s the best Betsy Bell and Mary Grey..be called 24401 Charles cox Staunton High School Twin Mountain Highlanders 24401 Elizabeth Cox Queen City High School Nah boi Cause it’s good 24401 Judy Cox Staunton High School Go back to original name. 24401 Autumn Cox Staunton High School Lee high school What it’s been called for years 22802 Steven Cox Staunton High School John Lewis High School Founder of the city of Staunton 24401 Deven Cox Staunton High School Sonny randle high Played in the nfl former coach The Shenandoah names make me immediately think of Shenandoah County, not the valley or Staunton. I think the name should reflect Staunton itself, the Queen City, and not just our 24401 Mary Cox Queen City High School Staunton High School geographic area.

He’s well respected in the community and he’s built a legacy when it comes to 24401 Brittany Cox Paul Hatcher High him working at the school 24401 Markus Coyne Staunton High School Collins No The name of our high school should match our city. Everyone can cheer for 24401 Keri Coyner Staunton High School Staunton!!

24401 Wanda Coyner Queen City High School Francis Collins High School Non Political

Because we live in Staunton. You hear fort defiance high school, waynesboro high school, Harrisonburg high school, it just makes sense. But valley high school also sounds awesome and it 24401 Hannah Coyner Staunton High School Valley High School represents us well.

24401 Jack Coyner Queen City High School Francis Collins High School Non Political Please DO NOT pick Queen 24401 Anthony Coyner Staunton High School City high It’s the name of our city. I think it has a ring and flow to the 24440 Chip Crabill Staunton City High School name, and it is based on location 24401 John Craft Staunton High School It's inclusive. Lewis Ceek drains all areas of the city 22980 Robert Craft Valley High School Lewis Creek High School and could serve as a metaphor.

24401 Vickie Craft Staunton High School Lee High School Staunton High School - Staunton, VA It represents the City it serves without division, which is possible with almost 24401 John Craft Staunton High School every other name.

This name is non controversial, fits well with the other area high schools, and stays true to the history and 24401 Laura Craft Staunton High School Stauntonian pride for our city. 22980 Austin Craig Queen City High School good name 25403 Nathan. Craig Queen City High School Robert E Lee high school I liked them Lisa Bowen Heymann High 90265 Chuck Crall School Lisa was a student there... 24401 John Cramer Queen City High School None Cool name Queen City sounds hopeful and artistic. A true reflection of its citizens who vote progressively and care about one another all while creating stunning art 24401 Inga Crane Queen City High School and music.

It was the original name and feels most 24401 Courtney Cranor Staunton High School appropriate among options listed.

24401 Linda Craun Staunton High School Should not affend any group of people Barack H. Obama High 24482 Chance Crawford Queen City High School School Think about it.

Most relevant. In our area most schools are named after the city/area they 24401 Angela Crawford Staunton High School represent. Great job, Staunton!

there is no reason to change the name 24401 Rodriquez Crawford Staunton High School no to omethingelse that dosnt make sense 24401 Reba Crawford Queen City High School Something new and different 24401 Khalil Crawford Queen City High School Robert E Lee High School Noo 22980 Anika Crawford Staunton High School the school is located in Staunton I choose Queen City High School because it’s not political, so it can’t be considered racist or offensive. It is a unique name that makes sense because queen city is another name for 24401 Katie Crawford Queen City High School Lee High staunton.

22980 Danny Crawford Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School John Lewis High School Im pissed its bein changed as it is.... I believe that was the original name 24401 Angela Crawford Staunton High School way back 24401 John Crawford Staunton High School Staunton City High School To restore the real historical name. I would like it to be this name because it has more value than Staunton City High School and I don't want to Queen City Royals High graduate with a foolish name on my 24401 Jaida Crawford Queen City High School School certificate.

Of the ones provided, Staunton High School makes sense. Cynthia Marks Gray High would be honoring the late Cynthia Marks Gray High Mrs Gray for all that she has done for 24401 Cory Crawford Staunton High School School the school and our community 24401 Lindsey Crawford Queen City High School It’s non political 22801 Heather Cribb Staunton High School It is straightforward and simple 24401 Nailee Crickenberger Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School It sounds very cool It is free from any negative connotations and it would be a fun 24401 Autumn Crider Queen City High School name for a school in this area Multiple Shenandoah High Schools already exist, Valley high school is vague; Queen City and Staunton High School are both unique, descriptive names that all students can be proud to 24401 Hannah Crider Queen City High School Staunton High School say. 22952 Julia Crist Queen City High School N/a It describes the school and shows pride 24450 Christi Crittenden Staunton High School None in the town Everyone already calls it Lee...why waste money on something so 24401 Ashley Critzer Lee High pointless! A GREAT teacher/coach for so many years to so many young boys and girls. 24401 Anne Croft Hunter Talbott High School He is LEGEND! 24401 Madeleine Cromer Queen City High School It is original 24401 Megan Cronin Shenandoah High School Staunton High School They're simple and to the point. 24401 Elaine Cronin Staunton High School N/A CIty name 24401 David Cronin Staunton High School It represents the city of Staunton 24401 Jessica Cronin Queen City High School So we can at least keep our colors Because I like that it is personal to Staunton. As a city we are known as the Queen City, and I think it’s cute and 24401 Erin Crosby Queen City High School represents our city well.

A Staunton native, Dr. Francis S. Collins, led the successful effort to complete Human Genome Project (HGP), a complex multidisciplinary scientific enterprise directed at mapping and sequencing all of the human DNA, and determining aspects of its function. He is director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). He is a member of the Institute of Medicine and the National Academy of Sciences. On Nov. 5, 2007, Collins received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civil award, for his revolutionary 24401 Liesel Crosier Staunton High School contributions to genetic research. 22980 Michael Crowe Queen City High School Staunton High School

It's the least offense so hopefully taxes 22980 Katelyn Crowe Queen City High School Remembrance High School dont have to pay for a change again 24401 Meg Croxton Queen City High School Staunton High School Fitting for the area. It is not named after a person, and is 24401 Laura Crummett Queen City High School the nickname of our city.

24401 Nancy Crump Staunton High School It was the original name of the school. 24401 Alejandra Cruz Queen City High School It's unique It's unique 26621 Ricardo Cruz Queen City High School Staunton ebenzer Irony 24401 Alejandra Cruz Queen City High School It sounds unique 24401 Mayra Cruz Queen City High School Sounds like it fits 24401 Emely Cruz Queen City High School I chose it cause it's unique The reason I picked this name is because I dont like the other names and I dont want to be called those 24001 Rosermary Cruz Pinto Queen City High School name. 24401 Alejandra Cruze Queen City High School Queen City high school It’s very unique and fresh start Ricky Bobby embodies the spirit of America, with his positive outlook and 22801 Matthew Cuellar Ricky Bobby High School competitive nature.

Lewis Creek High School, or Willis Carter High School, or Relate to things that are 22802 Emilie Culbertson Queen City High School Staunton High School Statler High School particular/special about Staunton. 24401 Will Cullom Queen City High School Trump high Idk The two names that I picked both are good names that can represent the community and to me make the most 24401 Dylan Culpen Queen City High School Staunton High School sense 24401 Stacy Cumbo Queen City High School It is a new nice name. It sounds the best and a completely new name would be the best optionbecause it is the least 22401 Anna Cumbo Queen City High School Queen City confrontational Accurate, inclusive and presumably 24401 Dan Cumbo Staunton High School conflict-free 24401 Mary Cummings Queen City High School Staunton High School X Most neutral choice, and a restoration 24401 Ann Cundy Staunton High School n/a of the former name.

23188 Kiana Cunningham Shenandoah Valley High School Harriet Tubman, Ida B. Wells They were empowered black women. Woodrow Wilson High He was born here and keeps it 24401 Destinee Cunningham Valley High School School historical. Woodrow Wilson High 24467 Kristen Curran Staunton High School School It's a presidential birthplace This is what the school was named 24401 Tony Curry Staunton High School before. 24401 Zachary Curry Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Lee high school Because I like to vote... 24401 Carolyn Curry Queen City High School Lee High School Staunton property tax payer I was forced. Because of the disappointing actions of the school 24401 Zachary Curry Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School board.

It isn't right to change the name of the high school. I think it is stupid to 24401 Rachel Curtis R. E. Lee High School change the name after all these years 24401 Jessica Cusson Queen City High School Statler high school Statler brothers 34401 Julia Custer Queen City High School The other names suck. CAUSE YALL ARE FOOLS N THINK LEE ROBERT CUSTIS Donald J. Trump High School WAS A SLAVE OWNER 43130 Kenzi Cvetan Staunton High School It makes sense

24401 Fauve d’Orvilliers Queen City High School The other names are boring and plain 24401 Sarah Dabney Queen City High School It’s the only name I like 24401 Erika Dabney Queen City High School It’s a good name. Donald John Trump High Because he is the best President we 28173 curtis Dabnis School ever had

We must secure the existence of our 24401 Nimrata Daily Shenandoah Valley High School Robert E Lee High School people and a future for white children.

Staunton is a beautiful, well known and well traveled destination. It is appropriate our only city high school 24401 Beth Daisey Staunton High School represent the City of Staunton. 24401 Tyler Dale Queen City High School Staunton High School Classy and simple Staunton RIver is another high school 24401 Michael Dalmolin Queen City High School name 24523 Maria Dalton Staunton High School Donald Trump High To honor our president 24401 Kyle Damen Staunton High School Robert E Lee It’s in Staunton I did not think the name was offensive but since it must be changed that maybe removing the R.E. will make it less personal and/or offensive. I just want to say that I am also offended that the names has to be changed if that 24477 Ashley Dameron Queen City High School Staunton High School Lee High School matters. He was a man with a dream to build Terry Davis Memorial High but had it taken away at such a young 24401 Randy Dandy School age, he is a hero to all.

All of these names are neutral, free of controversy, and relevant unless our city changes their name. I'm happy to 23222 Kyla Daniel Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Staunton City High School see my old school making this change! Campbell was a notable, free African American resident of Staunton, before 22802 Ronn Daniel Queen City High School Staunton High School Robert Campbell High School Emancipation. Because you school board members 22401 Tom Daniels Karl Marx are a bunch of PC pussies 24401 Kristen Daniels Queen City High School Staunton High School They’re the two i like.

Because renaming the high school is a petty, huge waste of funds. You’re really considering Staunton High Scool? Perhaps you should read about Lady Rebecca Staunton and her Husband Sir William Gooch. They benefited tremendously from slavery. You can’t rename everything that bears a stain from the horrible atrocity that was slavery. Even if you could, it wouldn’t Petty Huge Waste of erase it from our past. Staunton High 22853 Marie Dapper Taxpayer Dollars High School School indeed...you ignorant twats. The names specifically refer to Staunton. Shenandoah and Valley are 24459 Amanda D'Aquino Queen City High School Staunton High School too general.

24401 Amy Darby Queen City High School Staunton High School Schooly McSchool Face Our current name is racist and ignorant

All of these selections are No originality ,concern for safety & 24401 Amy Darby Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School terrible! Work Harder! segregated HS at one time 37085 Tykesha Darcus Valley High School Just seems fitting 24401 Carl Darcus Staunton High School Staunton is the city the school is in. 24401 Loleata Darcus Staunton High School We live in Staunton. 22939 Mixon Darracott Staunton High School It is the best choice. QCHS is a blending between the past, 24401 Lora Dattilio Queen City High School N/A present, and future. 24401 Alex Daughtrey Queen City High School Staunton is the Queen City I like how it sounds and it geniuely is a 24401 Grace Daughtrey Queen City High School good name

You can’t erase history...which apparently isn’t being taught in schools 23430 Glenda Daughtrey Staunton High School Robert E. Lee...leave it alone anymore! Leave the name as is!! 24401 Cleo Davenport Staunton High School Because that is the city it’s in Keeps it neutral and lets people know this high school belongs to the kids of 24401 Travis Davenport Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton City High School Staunton 23227 Shelia Davenport Queen City High School Has a nice ring to it. 24401 Bill Davick Staunton High School Seem to make the most sense

Queen City is fresh and allows a lot more possible themes to incorporate than just the name Staunton. For example, the idea of royals, monarchs, ruling can be used with logos and school spirit images. It is also something totally new--never been used in the past like Staunton High 24401 Christy Davis Queen City High School School has been.

Staunton is known as the Queen City, and this seems appropriate. Broadway High School was previously known as Valley High School back in the 30s - so that's out. Lee was previously known as Staunton High, so that's been used. Queen City is original & helps us on 22801 Chris Davis Queen City High School track for a new direction. 24401 chelsey davis Queen City High School Staunton High School lee high they aren't dumb 24401 Kacey Davis Staunton High School Original name of school Staunton High School for the community and city. John Lewis for an historical figure associated with the founding of Staunton and the name of the original building where Lee High 22939 Keith Davis Staunton High School John Lewis High School currently is. 24401 John Davis Valley High School Staunton Best represent the area Those who ignore our history are 24402 Samuel Davis Robert E. Lee doomed to repeat it He was a true historical figure, an honest man, who fought for a cause in 22401 Martha Davis Jeb Stuart High School which he believed. To honor the very first people to live 24401 Clinton Davis Shenandoah Valley High School Monacan Valley High School here in the Shenandoah Valley 22980 Mark Davis Robert E Lee Leave history alone

Because the School Board decided to Diverse, inclusive, caring & change the name regarless of how little 24401 John Davis Staunton High School kind High School. support there actually is for this change. 24401 Lucan Davis Queen City High School It fits us

The named I suggested honors Booker T. Washington and Staunton’s educational histories and Robert E. Lee High School provides a pathway for an enlightened 20002 Corbin Davis Queen City High School (Washington and Lee) discussion on current andnpast issues. 22939 Chris Davis Valley High School We are known for our Valley These individuals should not be erased from history. They did significant positives for the US prior to the civil war and even after. this is absolute 22401 C Davis Robert e lee nonsense. Gen. Stonewall Jackson High Because I’m tired of seeing history 22401 Wes Davis School misrepresented for political purposes. 24401 Julia Davis Queen City High School Staunton High School They best reflect the City’s identity

He was a great Stauntonian and many of our beautiful buildings would not be 24401 Alex Davis TJ Collins High School there if it were not for him 24401 Kesha Davis Valley High School None Staunton is know for the valley 24401 Sahara Davis Lee high school All the names are HORRIBLE 24401 Jaila Davis Queen City High School Queen City Represents Staunton 22980 Carrie Davis Queen City High School Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School N/A 24501 Richard davis davis Robert e lee the name should not be charged 24401 Sydney Davis Valley High School I liked it It sounds better and u won't have to 24401 Tyliyah Davis Staunton High School Lee High school change the gym and jerseys

48043 Ron Davis John Podesta Highschool he is a patriot and a progressive hero 24401 Chris Davis Staunton High School - 24401 Leah Davis Queen City High School Queen City sounds cool 24401 Tarken Davis Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Schooly McSchoolFace It's a fine name for a fine school Because it’s Staunton, so Staunton HS 22980 Denver Davis Staunton High School makes the most sense. 24401 Christina Davis Staunton High School I believe it fits best Name shouldn’t change because people don’t know the history of Lee. Lee was loved by the north and south 24401 Eric Davis Robert E Lee High School during the war. 24401 Valerie Deacon R.E. Lee High School Self explanatory! It is stupid to spend 200,000 to change 22939 Robert Dean Robert E. Lee a name.

The names don't classify with any race Diana Adams High School, or religion. It is based on where we live 24401 Parmie Dean Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Cora M. Hudson High School and who was influential here. 24401 Brian Dean Staunton High School Reflects locality and neutrality I grew up in a town about the size of Staunton and we had one public high school that was named for the town. As a high school student, you represented your town when you traveled for sports or school related activiites. And it enabled the whole town to feel supportive of the high school students because of that 24401 Lacey Dean Staunton High School identifier. 22840 Bob Dean Robert E Lee High School U cant destroy history It's a cultural hero that represents the 24441 Gary Dean Shenandoah Valley High School Ricky Bobby High School people of our area

Because it is what it is was and always will be what it is known by. Just because you cave in to the trolls doesnt mean everyone agrees.Study history before you start making unwise and 24471 Mike Dean Robert E Lee useless decisons. To all the boys I’ve loved 22201 James Dean Shenandoah Valley High School before Best name Robert E. Lee. You can’t change history! Accept it 22980 Todd Dean and move on It’s just right

20500 Jimmy Dean Donald J. Trump High School President Trump is a very humble man. It's time to move past Jim Crow and make the name one for all the students 24401 Jennifer Deane Staunton High School to carry with pride. 45205 John Deaver Staunton High School John Lewis High School founder of Staunton Because the name would be a better choice when it is shorter and it is 22551 Jason DeBadts Valley High School describing the geography 22932 Dina DeBerry Valley High School I like it. Stonewall Jackson High We already have a great Stonewall 24479 Roger Decker Staunton High School School landmark hotel He was a bipartisan champion who upheld many of the values of the 24416 Sam Decline to answer Valley High School John McCain Memorial HS people in our region. These names would represent the area 24477 Gabriela Deering Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School well. 24401 Kathryn Delaney Staunton High School Original name 24401 Leisel DeLange Queen City High School Yeet It was the first word I thought of 62040 Larry Dellamàno Staunton High School The name of the town. 24401 Rebecca Dellinger Shenandoah Valley High School Makes sense

24401 Shawn Demond Staunton High School Its a high school and it is in Staunton

Lee was a statesman and a patriot, as well as a well respected historic figure until IGNORANCE over run the country. May history remember you for your ignorance. Talk about offensive, maybe your names should be removed from the board, obviously you don't deserve to be there by making such offensive, ignorant, un-educated decisions, apparently you don't know factual history, and don't teach factual history. How dare you! Why not change it to "Carl Marx" or "Joseph Stalin", how about "Adolf Hitler", who else would change the name of a school because 23923 Roger DeMuth R. E. LEE HIGH SCHOOL they deemed it offensive.

Shenandoah belongs in shenandoah 24401 Peter Denbigh Staunton High School county, others just dont sound great. 22980 Allan Dennison Stonewall Jackson High Keeping it real

Fits with the naming of other area schools (Harrisonburg, Waynesboro, 22801 Dave Dennison Staunton High School etc. - plus it’s apolitical. Because he was a great basketball coach and he would be a great fit for 24401 DJ DePriest Queen City High School Paul Hatcher High School the name Valley High School has a good ring to it. I always wanted to go to Galaxy High 24401 Peter Dering Valley High School Galaxy High School School. 24401 Nickolas DeSimone Queen City High School Staunton High School the original HISTORY Simple name. Not sure why we are the "queen city" (lived here 10 years, still don't know) Not a fan of Sweet Valley 24401 Ilia Desjardins Staunton High School High-esq names

The Staunton name encompasses a 22980 Doug Desper Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School good heritage and should be neutral.

He is a local educator who is an Alphonso Hamilton High amazing gentleman admired by many 24401 Cathy Desper School who have gone to Staunton schools.

A) Staunton would be generic and non- confrontational. The teams could be called the Pioneers or something like that to represent Staunton's long history toward teh development of the country. B) The name Equality could be used to represent the struggle that was involved in getting the name change If not the above, then and the goals associated with that 22980 David Desper Staunton High School Equality High School struggle. Schoolin' Stevie's Schoolin' Stevie learns 'em like 24401 Bill Dew Shenandoah High School Valley High School Educational Center nobody's business. That’s the name and that’s what it should be. It’s unfair to name it anything other than that. My children will not attend this school due to this 24401 Amanda Diaz R.E. Lee high school ridiculous decision. 24401 ALLEN Dice Robert e lee high school It the name of the school now 24401 Hannah Dice Queen City High School It is very classy. 76543 Scott Dice Queen City High School Sound better We live nestled in the blue Ridge 24401 Jennifer Dick Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Blue Ridge High School mountains 24401 Richard Dickerson Staunton High School none Anything but Obama High School Logical; Consistent with current system (BGHS, WHS, HHS, SDHS, etc.) No need 24401 Barry Diduch Staunton High School to get fancy.

They evoke the place of the high school 24401 Emma Diduch Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School while being short and to the point. I love the idea of Shenandoah HS (or Shenandoah Valley HS). I can't believe it isn't already in use! The name ties together our distant past (as it is derived from some unknown Native American word), our more recent history (as a place of settlement, as a place of agricultural productivity) and our current home. It has recognition beyond our immediate area: people from far away know where the Shenandoah Valley is located. I believe it is a name that has positive associations for people. However, I would have no objections to the choice of Staunton HS. It follows general naming conventions and provides the most useful information: the location 24401 Amy Diduch Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School of the school. 24401 Isaac Diehl Queen City High School I like it

Francis Collins is a Staunton native and alumnus of the high school. As director of the Human Genome Project and director of the NIH, he represents the power of knowledge and education and is a fantastic reflection on the City of 24401 Jared Diener Staunton High School Francis Collins High School Staunton.

24401 Camille Dierksheide Staunton High School It was the original name of the school 24431 Dakota Dietrich Schooley mcschoolface Its what the people need 24401 Sarah DiFlorio Staunton High School N/A It’s a logical name 24401 josh DiGennaro Staunton High School . focus on education 24401 Jen Diggs Queen City High School Unique

I believe Dr. Gray was a very important piece to the history of Lee High. As a individual who didn’t attend Lee but having them as our rivals for many years; Dr. Gray kept things respectful and competitive. (Just with her presence & the stern look she’d give 22980 Latoya Diggs Queen City High School Cynthia Gray High School when the crowd would act up) 24401 Stephen Diggs Queen City High School Sounded best I graduated from Robert E. Lee High School in 1978. I am saddened by the anger and controversy this issue has 29440 Terry Dillinger Robert E. Lee High School caused in my hometown. Why call it Shenandoah when we arent in that county? Call it Staunton and be 24477 William Dillon Staunton High School done with this

You would be changing from the name Martin Luther King Jr. High of an oppressive warmonger to a 24401 Tyler Dimaggio School peaceful civil rights activist. Poetic. I think it should be Queen City High School because it used to be the largest 24401 Isabella DiMeo Queen City High School county in the world. I like this name over all the other ones and people used to call Staunton 24401 Bella Dimeo Queen City High School Queen City Royals Queen City

These names are more fitting since the 24401 Nicki DiMeo Queen City High School Staunton High School school is located in Staunton City. Anything but R.E. Lee is better, also names associated with Staunton, because after all, it is the city's only 22939 D Dimotsis Queen City High School Staunton High School Barack Obama High School high school.

Stanton High School is the most boring and awful name ever. Queen City High School has so much character in it while Staunton High School is so bland 24401 Keaton Dinkle Queen City High School and I hate it.

Because slavery ended 153 years ago and the dumbasses that think a confederate general is offensive should've actually paid attention in the high school rather than trying to knock up half of staunton. There are multiple schools with confederate generals' names. Im offended when people smeeze in my direction, but im not going around plugging peoples noses. Get over the self absorbed entitled egos, and raise your goddamn children the right fucking way. Racism wouldnt be a problem if people would give up the fact that its a thing. You are glorifying this and persisting the issue 24401 Fuck Dis Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Robert.E.Lee High Schhol rather than taking care of it. It makes more sense than any other 24437 Megan Diveley Staunton High School suggestion. Being the Queen City is such a unique thing Staunton has. Also, royal blue 24401 Rachel Dixon Queen City High School could still be Lee’s color! Well I chose it because black men are under represented in school names. so Terry Davis Memorial High I think Terry Davis would be a good 24401 Charlie Dobson School addition. 24401 Elizabeth Dod Staunton High School Most fitting 27948 Nancy Dod Robert E. Lee high school Should have never changed it

They are impartial to politics, and are helpful in understanding where the Bell Grey High School (for schools are located geographically. The the two mountains in main reason being that they are 24401 Anne-Charles Dod Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Staunton) politically neutral. 24401 John Dodge Queen City High School It’s best As an alumni of Lee High, I don't think any vote of this magnitude should be left to 6 people, 4 of whom were just elected to the Staunton City School Board. There is a reason I chose to pull my children out of the Staunton City School system to homeschool...and decisions like this make me that much Nicole Dodge Robert E. Lee High School happier that I did. 22980 Ollie Dodge Staunton High School None It's plain, inoffensive Francis Collins- human genome project and lee grad. (Perhaps he could Booker T. Washington High, contribute funds towards a STEM lab at 24401 Shirley Dodson Queen City High School Staunton High School Francis Collins High, the school.) 24401 Joseph Dodson Queen City High School Classy, and not offensive Jackson was directly involved in 24401 Gary Dodson Stonewall Jackson protecting Staunton from invasion

The school is named after a historical figure. Most associate this man with slavery. This is incorrect. He freed the slave he inherited from family and refused to own any. He was also offered a role in the Union Army, but chose to stay loyal to the State of 24440 Jon Doe Robert E. Lee High School Virginia instead. It is the most descriptive, yet non- controverial name and it coexists well with Harrisonburg and Waynesboro 24401 John Doe Staunton High School High Schools. Snowflake High/school colors-rainbow/mascot- 24401 Jane Doe unicorn Any other name will hurt. Because the high school is located in 24401 destiny dolin Staunton High School staunton......

With the decision to change the name of the school, the community is very divided and the hate is very abundant. I believe that we should unite both former high schools into one name. It Washington and Lee High would be a representation of the 24401 Kwadwo Donkor Staunton High School School Staunton Community Sell the naming rights for 24401 Len Doran Staunton High School 1million dollars. Support for teachers for supplies 24401 Guise Dorvilliers Queen City High School To honor the great 45 President to the 24401 Jeremy Dosenotmatter Donald J Trump US 28752 Jacob Douylliez Queen City High School I really like the name.

Let's celebrate our Queen City! Also 24401 Jeremy Douylliez Queen City High School the chant should be "YASS QUEEN!!" 24401 Cory Douylliez-Willis Queen City High School Female empowerment Naming a school after the location name just makes sense. Especially 24401 John Dove Queen City High School Staunton High School when there is only one high school. We reside in Staunton City and we are 24401 Krystle Dove Staunton Lee High Leemen aka FamLee Both names pay tribute to the area without prejudice to any group or 24401 Danyelle Dovel Queen City High School Staunton High School minority. Big Barry's Building of Book Big Barry is the greatest teacher of all 24477 Ben Dover Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Learnin' time. Schooly McSchoolface High 24401 Ben Dover School Better than the other choices GO FUCK YOURSELF HIGH 24401 Ben Dover Staunton High School SCHOOL Y'ALL ARE FUCKIN MORONS 24401 Jacqueline Downs Staunton High School It was the original name. 24421 Sherry Doyle Robert E Lee high school Should have stayed the same

muammar mohammed abu 24401 biscu dravdrad minyar gaddafi high school yes 24477 Bradley Dressler Staunton High School Simplistic Like the sound, unaware of similar 27529 Amanda Driscoll Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School names close by

Staunton is the birthplace of President Woodrow Wilson. President banned African Americans from government service and the White House. President Wilson ignored the plight of African Americans in the south of Jim Crow, the KKK and lynchings. President Wilson held a showing of the movie Birth of a Nation (The Clansman) in the White House. Honoring President Obama in the hometown of President would be a small way of expressing regret for forcing African American Stauntonians to leave a high school named for an outstanding African American, Booker T. Washington, to attend a high school named for a Confederate general who fought to 24401 David Driver Staunton High School Barak H. Obama High School enslave their ancestors.

History cannot be changed by changing a name. History is important so times 24477 Herbert Drumheller Leave as Robert E. Lee are not repeated. It is the primary High School in Staunton, so Staunton High Scool 24401 Dan Drumheller Staunton High School makes sense. Queen city has the best ring to it. I think everyone would be proud of that 24401 Amber Drumheller Queen City High School Barack Obama high school name 24401 Dorsye Duckett Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Blue Ridge High School Mountains

The name should reflect the community it resides in and that it’s students live in. Staunton High School is neutral and yet representative of all 24401 John Dull Staunton High School this city’s residents. It is a unique name for a unique city and would serve the high school well. We should never again have a school named for a person to avoid what we 24401 Carolyn Dull Queen City High School have experienced. Simple, middle of the road, inclusive...and it is the original name of 24401 Thomas DuMontier Staunton High School the high school Lenin-Marx-Obama Socialist Learning Center (Sports teams: "Melting Represents the current school board 24401 Ricard Dunay Snowflakes") vision Simply drop the R.E. and let 24401 Gary Duncan it be Lee High School. 200,000 Reasons !!! It’s sounds cooler than just Staunton high school. It offends no one, and it 24401 Graham Duncan Queen City High School N/a represents our city. I feel since Staunton is already the Queen’s City, Queen City High school is more than appropriate. It also sounds 24401 Taeghan Duncan Queen City High School N/A amazing ans luxurious. it’s cool and we would be able to do a lot of things with it and it’s beyter than 24401 Allison Duncan Queen City High School staunton city high 24401 Chris Duncan Schooly MacSchoolface Cause a name change is stupid !

To honor the last president with integrity we had, and, well, how many Barack H. Obama High decades was it named for a colonizer? 24401 Phyllis Duncan Staunton High School School Why not balance the scales a bit?

Dr. Collins is probably the most accomplished alumnus of our high school so far; and is currently the director of the NIH. He has received the presidential medal of freedom and national medal of science. This is someone who might win a Nobel Prize at some point. He should be top of the list for consideration for a new name 24401 Samuel Dungan Staunton High School Francis S. Collins High School for the high school. World famous scientist from Staunton, 24401 Jesse Dungan Staunton High School Francis Collins High School head of NIH. Francis Collins is the most distinguished graduate of the High School as former head of the Human Genome Project and current head of the National Institutes of Health. To have a internatio known doctor and scientist as a model for the school would be inspiring and would give honor to knowledge and service that is not based on political or military accomplishments . Staunton High School because it is in keeping with almost all other local high schools and is the most readily identifiable name for 24401 James Dungan Staunton High School Francis Collins High School our local school.

Heather Hyer Memorial High It is the young lady that lost her life in 22980 Daniel Dunham Queen City High School Staunton High School School Charlottesville in the KKK rally recently. 24401 Daniel Dunham Queen City High School Still keeping the vibe of Staunton. Doesn’t need to be changed just drop 24401 Lindsey Dunivan Staunton High School Lee High the R E 24401 Logan Dunkum Queen City High School Queen City Monarchs Generic and is a new beginning

It's very catchy, and we can still keep 24401 Christiana Dunlow Queen City High School the school colors if we use "royals." It is located in Staunton, so it makes 24401 Lorie Dunn Staunton High School N/a sense. 24401 Ryan Dunnagan Staunton High School Valley High School Na Represents the location

All the other school names don’t fit! 22980 Criana Dunnings Staunton High School Staunton high school is a better fit! Most schools in the area named after 28105 Crystal Dunnings Staunton High School the city they are located in. Most of the high schools in the area are 24477 Jesi Dunnivan Staunton High School named after their location. It's different but still a good 24401 Taylor Dupree Queen City High School representation of the city Queen City reminds people of how Staunton was once the county seat of 22801 Aiden Dupuis Queen City High School the largest country in the world

There are already Shenandoah schools. And Queen City High School seems the most aesthetically pleasing name especially for branding/marketing 24401 Cheryl Durrett Queen City High School N/A purposes

We are considered the “Queen City”. Royals or Monarchs could be our mascot implying that our young generation are kings and queens and are going to lead us into the future. I think it’s a amicable choice choosing no other historical or present figure above 24401 Charisse Durrette Queen City High School another. 22151 Kelly Dwyer Shenandoah Valley High School George Lincoln Rockwell I think it can speak to many with just 24401 Tyler Dylan High the one name appealing to everyone I dont really care but its stupid that there is even a name change in the first 24401 Chris Eakin Staunton High School place. Nothing

Queen City is the Photography place staunton is better like waynesboro 24401 Megan Eakin Staunton High School highschool is WHS it could be shs

24401 Kennedy Eakin Queen City High School Fitting for our town. A positive title! Terry Davis Memorial High 24401 Willie Earl School Terry Davis was a pioneer in technology Terry Davis struggled with mental issues to design a ground-breaking Terry Davis Memorial High computer program. His actions should 24401 Randy Earl School inspire any child. Queen City because the mascot could 24401 Travis Earley Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A be the royal guard.

24401 Ariel Early Queen City High School Staunton High School NA Queen City High School has a nice ring

The “Shenandoah” choices make me think of Shenandoah County. First choice would be the original name and I also think that “Queen City” has a nice ring. The mascot could be the Royals! Many thanks to the board for your 24401 Andrea Early Queen City High School Staunton High School work on this issue.

Booker T. Washington High There were once 2 high schools in 24401 Andrew Easley School Staunton, let's name it the other one! 24401 Diana Easley Queen City High School No Staunton is the Queen City! I really think it's an empowering name 24477 Tessa Easter Queen City High School N/a to choose. 24482 Nick Eastman Queen City High School Robert E Lee high Sounds cool

Both men are influential in our city, great role models for everyone. All other schools in the city are named for someone important to the city. I am a 22903 Dana Eastman T.J. Collins or Fletcher Collins 1970 graduate of R.E. Lee. 24477 Heather Eavers Staunton High School School is in Staunton Most representative of our City and 24401 Spencer Eavers Staunton High School local high school 22821 Ben Eberly Grant -Lee high school For both 24402 Pete Echols Schooly McSchool Face It is culturally significant

Most of the other schools in this area with the exception of two are named simply after where they’re located. There are no politics in naming in Staunton High School. The other ones 24401 Margaret Echols Staunton High School just don’t sound “right” to me. It is unique -- there are no other 24477 Elaine Echols Staunton High School Staunton's in Virginia 24401 Nathaniel Eckert Queen City High School Paul Hatcher Highschool It has nothing to do with politics 24401 Nathan Eckert Queen City High School Cloyd Rivers High School Bonk gang that’s why 24401 Donnie Eckert Robert E. Lee High School The School Board is a bunch of idiots 24401 Bella Edmunds Queen City High School It’s the coolest one It actually sounds like a good school 24401 Owen Edwards Queen City High School Nah School name 24401 Maggie Edwards Staunton High School Accurately describes the school

Super Robert E. Lee High The original was racially offensive and I 22980 Julian Edwards Shenandoah Valley High School School believe this name makes more sense I think it perfectly encapsulates the school and the city and you could have 22980 Carly Edwards Queen City High School fun with the mascots! History was fought by heroes who died being heroes. We should remember 25425 Rose Edwards Robert E. Lee High School and respect them.

Graduate of R.E. Lee and find the name change to be ridiculous. Small minds 24401 Betty Edwards Not My School Now lead to exaggerated decisions.

24401 Alexander Efird Alexander Efird High School Named After High School Student

Staunton is where my sons were born and raised. It the name of our town; we're all citizens of Staunton My sons like Queen City specifically. The other names are more High School. I don't mind ambiguous. Thanks for allowing us to 24401 Vickie Einselen Staunton High School that one either. state our opinions!

Bruce Lee High school (i would be proud to attend a 24401 mary elam Queen City High School school with this title) we are the QUEEN city!!! Sounds the best and hopefully can’t 24401 Emma Elam Queen City High School offend anyone To maintain consistancy of the "Leeman" name in the Academics and 24401 Beth Elcox Sports Programs 24401 Alexis Elcox Queen City High School Different If it can’t be Robert E. Lee, I’ll settle for 24401 Kim Eldred Queen City High School Staunton High School those two 22980 Nichelle Elijah Staunton High School Because it’s the name of the city 24401 Burt Eller Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School Roll off the tongue/ pretty

R. E. Lee was an honorable man and true to Virginia. So sad that people are 33709 Susan Ellerbrake Robert E Lee High School bowing to the current trend. Never should have been changed but 24401 Amy Ellinger Staunton High School best option That was the previous name and is in line with other high school in other 24401 Charlotte Ellinger Staunton High School local cities. I like Queen City...sounds good, it's exciting. Staunton High is kind of 24401 Arlo Ellingsworth Queen City High School Staunton High School innocuous, vanilla The mascot can be the Fighting 24401 Keith Ellingsworth Queen City High School Staunton High School Francis Collins Genomes! I think naming it after an alumni 24401 Donna Ellingsworth Staunton High School Fletcher Collins High School scientist is inspiring. 22401 jim elliot R.E. Lee. Revisionist shall fail!!! 24401 Ozzy Elliott Queen City High School Queen because i like this name Provides clarity as to school's location and promotes unity by not using an affiliation or person's name that would mean winners or losers in the naming process. A neutral name will provide healing and allow moving on. I feel no public space should be named after a person because all people are flawed and subject to controversy, exclusion and division. A neutral name will provide an opportunity for inclusion and school pride for all. The name would be in line with other area schools that are identified by city or 23117 Chris Elliott Staunton High School county name.

24401 Pat Elliott Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Francis Collins High School Outstanding scientist. Human genome Short, easy to use, less text to print, 24401 Jessica Ellis Staunton High School Valley High School obvious location association

Its am exciting name and its not racist 24401 Isaiah Elliston Queen City High School Robert E. Lee High School and its located in Staunton City It’s an exciting name for a school and 24401 Malcolm Elliston Queen City High School Robert E. Lee High School it’s located in Staunton City

The reason for the name I chose 24001 kayla El-Ouattassi Queen City High School Staunton High School because it the High school in Staunton 24401 Sarah Elsea Queen City High School N/A Francis Collins: Staunton native; NIH director; oversaw Human Genome Project/ Rita Wilson: Staunton native; first African-American city council 24401 Heather Ely Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Collins Wilson High School member Nickname of the city should’ve the 24401 Ryan Embry Queen City High School Paul Hatcher High School name of the school as well. denotes the town in which the school is 24401 Winona Emerson Staunton High School located 22980 Michal Emmert-Hart Queen City High School It sounds unique Lee high school thats what everyone refers to it Easier name cheaper on expenses and anyways and lee is a everyone refers to it as lee high any 24477 John England common name ways Cost will be less. A lot of current uniforms already have Lee or Leemen 24401 Allison Entsminger Staunton High School Lee High School on them

24401 Karen Eppard Hall Staunton High School Lee High School It is the closest reasonable compromise. There is no reason to change the name because there is no better person for 24401 Gene Ergenbright Robert E Lee High School whom a school is named Staunton is the beautiful Queen City & the high school deserves a name as 24421 Tara Ergenbright Queen City High School beautiful Both are more interesting than 27519 Mary Erskine Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School It sounds reasonable for that school 24401 Kayla Eutsler Shenandoah Valley High School area and school. I like Queen City because it reminds me of why Staunton is a good town, and what they're known for. Also, the 22801 Becca Evans Queen City High School Royals would be a great mascot. Because, like Robert E Lee, he fought for the rights of his people against 24401 Bill Evans Adolf Hitler High school tyrannical oppresion. 24401 Thomas Evans Queen City High School History

He is a prominent black stauntonian and an artist and mentor to me when I 40507 Daniel Evans Queen City High School Larry Vickers High was in high school at Lee. 24401 John Evans Queen City High School cute Queen City royals would be a 24401 Emma Evans Queen City High School wonderful mascot Stonewall Jackson High 24472 Steve Evans School The name should not be changed 24401 Jasmine Evans Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A they are simple

I firmly believe the name should change, and Staunton High School is descriptive, location appropriate, and 24401 Maggie Evans Staunton High School does not carry divisive tones. As a graduate, I do not feel the name 80621 Ryan Ewing Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School should be changed.

I like the idea of reclaiming the original 24401 Matthew Ezzell Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School name of Staunton High School. 24477 Sean F Bruce lee high school Cool 24401 C F Staunton High School previous name - makes most sense Let’s use the name of our own city to 24401 Tanya Faidley Staunton High School represent our high school. 24401 Ben Fairfield Staunton High School We are in staunton Most high schools are named for their 24401 Alan Fairfield Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School location 30005 Emma Fairlie Queen City High School Valley High School Friendship High School They sound the best Its cool and it is more interesting than staunton high school it fits our city 24401 Micayla Faria Queen City High School better 24401 Micayla Faria Queen City High School Its a pretty name. Queen City Royals High 24401 Mallori Faria Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School School Queen City is pretty I really like that one but i don't like the 24401 Ava Farid Queen City High School Queen city highschool staunton high school one. I think it is the most appropriate to represent all of the residents of Staunton, Thank you for letting me 24401 Barbara Farley Staunton High School voice my opinion,

I think our high school should identify us as a community, and Francis Collins is an esteemed graduate of R.E. Lee High School. His academic and intellectual achievements are substantial, demonstrating to students Staunton - Francis S. Collins that they, too, can achieve great things 24401 Ben Farley Staunton High School High School with our high school as the foundation. Mr. Hamilton and all his stories about Booker T Washington. Including that they could not play Robert E Lee Highshool in basketball in the day and had to travel to play because of the 24401 Jacqueline Farley Staunton High School Booker T Washington colour of their skin I feel they represent the city of 24401 Allie Farley Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Francis Collins High School Staunton and the residents.

He graduated from LEE,lived here and his family has done a lot for the city. He also is the head of NHO. Someone to 24401 Karen Farrar Valley High School Francis Collins High School be proud of and not racial motivated.

The reason I chose the two names I did: Queen City High School is a name that everyone can be part of.. I love the thought that our sports teams could The Monarchs. Both sexes can be Monarchs, I love that! And Staunton High School is similar but not as much 24401 Julie Farrell Queen City High School Staunton High School fun! Queen city is more unique, and if the school board were to go with Bruce Lee, the highschool students can still be "Lee men" and the cost might be cheaper as far as changing the signs 24401 Patience Farris Queen City High School Bruce Lee Highschool and such. It’s the most specific and least controversial. Queen has double meanings and would be subject to 24401 Cheryl Fauerbach Staunton High School ridicule. 24401 Eric Fauerbach Staunton High School I like it the best.

They all mean something to the city and Dr. Francis Collins is an alumnus who went on to achieve immense success in genetics with his decoding Dr. Francis Collins High the human genome and as Director of 24401 Benjamin Faught Queen City High School Staunton High School School the National Institutes on Health. Shouldn’t have changed the name but 24401 Jenna Faulkner Queen City High School Statler high school Queen City sounds pretty cool I AM A LYING BITCH, so don't listen to 24401 Diane Feinstein Staunton High School me! Stonewall Jackson High Celebrates a local hero and matches 24401 Frank Fenneran Staunton High School School the incredible hotel. 24401 Mike Ferguson Queen City High School Staunton High School They represent Staunton

Staunton High because we're in Staunton, Francis Collins High because 24401 Francis Ferguson Staunton High School Francis Collins High School he is a respected Stauntonian

It's something that reflects the city's heritage while also being a new beginning as I do not think the name 24401 Joe Fiechtl Queen City High School has been used before. 24401 Kendall Field Queen City High School Represents the city well

It joins together the past and the future for those in the school. Encouraging those in the entering those walls not to forget the past but rather to leave 24401 April Fielding Shenandoah High School Legacy High School behind their own legacy

Who will pay for the name change, tax payers should be forced to pay for this. No reason to change name. Peoples 24401 Sylvia Fielding Robert E Lee High School feeling get hurt every day, deal with it I don’t wanta pay more in taxes in my 24401 Meghan Fielding-Cotton Robert E. Lee High school house!

24401 Bella Fields Queen City High School Fortnite high school I choose this because it is the city name. I like the way they sound and roll off 24401 Josh Fields Queen City High School Staunton High School Obama High the tounge. 22903 Luther Fields Queen City High School n/a n/a Other names are generic, confusing, or could be confused with Shenandoah 22980 Greg Fife Staunton High School County.

"Staunton High School" is the historic name of the school. That name clearly identfiies who and where we are. The other geographical names suggested are too vague and do not show pride in where we actually live. Picking a person to name the school for is likely to start the whole name kerfluffle all 24401 Raymond Firehock Staunton High School over again. Regardless if you change the name or 22980 Judy Fisher Staunton High School R.E.Lee not it will still be called R.E.Lee Queen City has a historical value that I 24401 Keith Fisher Queen City High School find interesting I like the history behind our Queen City also It will help keep personal 24401 Alisha Fisher Queen City High School names/politics out of the vote! Favorite of the ones listed. Wish it wasn't changing part of Virginia tourism 22980 R Fisher Staunton High School is the history in this area. He is my great great great great 22401 Brandon Fisher GEN Stonewall Jackson grandfather It was the original name, and it isn't controversial to just revert it back to 24401 Telijah Fitch Staunton High School the original name.

Staunton High is the original name and besides Wilson it fits the motif of local schools being named for the area they 24401 Jason Fitchko Staunton High School Frances Collins High School represent rather than an individual 22980 Logan Fitz Robert E Lee Does not need to be changed 24401 Koty Fitzgerald Queen City High School Queen City fits well

Queen City sounds like a good high school name and Staunton is where it’s 24401 Dakota Fitzgerald Queen City High School Staunton High School nocated so it makes sense. 24401 Hailey Fitzgerald Queen City High School It sounds cool

Shenandoah High has the nicest, most poetic ring in my opinion. But I also like that QUeen City High evokes some of our exceptional history but without miring us in racial references. On the other hand, Shenandoah is perhaps more forward looking and neutral. I would prefer the school not be named If Queen City, mascot could after a person unless it is someone of 24401 Samar Fitzgerald Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School be the Queen Bees color from Staunton. I feel school school should have name 24401 Alicia Fitzgerald Staunton High School of city it's in. Simple and easy. The others seem a bit 24401 Eugene Fitzgerald Staunton High School much 24431 Larry Fitzgerald Leave name alone Nothing wrong with name it has Naming the new school after a place causes zero problems and zero dicide. Staunton is better than Shenandoah because it makes it unique to the specific area. Shenandoah Valley includes more places than just 24401 Natalie Fitzgerald Staunton High School Staunton. I like the name, and it sounds really 24401 Hunter Fitzgerald Queen City High School cool. 24401 katelyn fitzgerald Cynthia Gray High School in honor of the assistant principal. Staunton is a historical city and she 24401 Fred Fitzgerald Staunton High School stand on its own name. 20124 Matthew Fitzgerald Staunton High School Statler High School Staunton High School makes sense. 24401 Cindy Fitzgerald Queen City High School Staunton High School Na Booker T. Washington High Booker T has an amazing overlooked 22939 Tanya Fitzpatrick School history. It should be named after the city it is located in. Should have never been 24401 Maria Fitzwater Staunton High School changed! 24401 Ryan Fix Queen City High School cause 24401 Taylor Fix Queen City High School Fits best for our school Because, without fail, if the school is named for a person someone will be 24401 Neil Fix Staunton High School Valley High School offended. I like the names. It unifies the student 24401 Ryan Fix Queen City High School Francis Collins High body. 24401 Sidney Fix Queen City High School Sounds nice 24401 Kristi Fix Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School My personal opinion Named for booker t washington and 24401 Buster Fix Washington and Lee robert e lee both educators 24401 Alexis Fix Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School ..

Shenandoah would be too confusing do 24401 Bud Flanders Queen City High School Staunton High School to another county using the name. I feel like Staunton makes sense, as most local schools are named after the 24401 Taylor Flavin Queen City High School Staunton High School city they’re located in. 24401 Kara Flavin Queen City High School It sounds cool

My preference is Lee High because I am a student at the currently named Robert E. Lee High School, and wish for it to be called Lee High which doesn’t 24401 Kendall Flavin Queen City High School Lee High School have to be associated with General Lee.

The kids I have spoken to while at the LHS Volleyball game last night all preferred the name Queen City from the list provided so I am voting for them on that name. They like the originality of a high school name NOT named after the city they reside in. It makes our school unique from others. I personally think it should be Lee High. There is NO reason compromise should 24401 Jenn Flavin Queen City High School Lee High School not be met. 24401 Kara Flavin Queen City High School Sounds better than the rest. The name repreents one of the 24401 Bryan Flavin Forest Gibson High School Staunton WWII heros. 24482 William Flavin Lee High School It’s the best name for the sy Uniforms could still be used and is 24482 Kay Flavin Valley High School Lee High School more familiar 24401 Tashawna Fleming Staunton High School It sounds better 24472 Melanie Fleshman Staunton High School Robert E Lee Leave it as it is. 24477 Emily Flippin Staunton High School It’s not based on race

Queen City sounds nice and I don’t want it to be named shanandoah valley. This argument and decision 22812 Lauren Flora Queen City High School doesn’t represent the entire valley. 24401 Luritza Flores Queen City High School I think it will be less boring 24401 Will Flory Queen City High School Staunton High School Logic 24401 Caitlyn Flory Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School Woodrow High School Woodrow Wilson 22801 Derek Flory Queen City High School Robert E Lee High School It sounds gay Robert. E. Lee surrendered. School board needs to surrender and don't change the name! History!! Trying to re 24421 Taylor Floyd Staunton High School Leave it how it is. name history Alphonso Hamilton High 24421 James Folk School Great local educator and mentor 24175 Henley Folk Staunton High School Makes the most sense

22980 Richard Foltz Staunton High School Statler Brothers High School group from Staunton Sounds better than the other ones, and 24401 Charles Forbes Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School it's not to simple.

22939 James Ford Staunton High School Stanton School for Education This is what HS are for 22939 Ron Ford Queen City High School Classic name 24401 Danielle Ford Staunton High School Robert E Lee High School It’s fair to everyone 22801 Suzziw Fornadel Staunton High School Good one

24401 Ashtyn Forsyth Queen City High School Stratford lie HIGH SCHOOL Because lee was born in stratford 24401 Chelsea Watkins Foster Queen City High School Its a good name

24401 Robert Fountain Staunton High School One High School One town Staunton

I don’t think it should be changed but it supposed to be put tho the people and none of the ones in Question 4 is all the names that citizens want . Why ask for what name we want when you have the ones in Question 4 ??? Have you as 24477 Pat Fox Lee High School board members already decided ????

Because it is our history, you can’t change that. And society needs to quit 24134 Angela Fox R.E. Lee sucking their thumbs and grow up

I don’t think it is necessary to change the name because of history and the fact that some people are offended by it. I have a hearing loss but am not offended by the name of VSDB. There are far more important things to be 24401 Whitney Fox Lee High School worrying about in my opinion.

24401 Ian Fox Robert E Lee High School Because the name shouldn't change.

24477 Kirk Fox Staunton High School Donald J Trump High School It has a nice ring to it

24430 BJ Fragale Queen City High School History Erased High First one obvious, second one, obvious We won't need to go through this 24401 Martha Frances Staunton High School again. It's the city the school is in. Staunton Royals or Queen Heritage- Staunton has a Glorious 24401 Amanda Francis Queen City High School Staunton High School City Royals history- lets honor it 24401 Robyn Frank Staunton High School N/a Simple and to the point. Staunton City High School is a great 24401 Pat Frank Staunton High School neutral name.

The guy discovered several diseases and lead the human genome project. He’s also a graduate of Lee High. It 24401 Zach Franklin Francis Collins High School would make great sense to use him.

J Franklin Staunton High School It was the original name of the school. George Lincoln Rockwell 24401 Anne Franklin High It shows pride in our values. Good man.

Terry Davis was a good, moral computer programmer who tragically ended his life after decades of struggling with mental disorder. I would choose this name to show mental Terry Davis Memorial High health awareness as well as to promote 24401 Ben Franklin School STEM programs in our school. No one can be upset with it’s original 24401 Justin Freed Staunton High School name it is a very good name for the school 24401 Jaydenn Freeman Queen City High School and I like it :) 24401 Gabe Freeman Queen City High School Queen city sounds cool 24401 Elizabeth Freeman Queen City High School Staunton High School Neutral 24401 Brazell Freeman Valley High School I think it’s a neutral name. Jacob Freeman Queen City High School Sounds best

24401 Gabriel Freeman I don't want it to just be staunton high 24401 Dariyann Freeman Queen City High School Staunton High School Because it’s the most neutral

It’s the natural choice. When I moved here in 1999, I naturally assumed the only high school in town would simply 24401 Guy Freesen Staunton High School be Staunton High School.

I like the way it sounds more than the others. It is inclusive of everyone who lives in our city and has a flair to it that matches the flavor of our city. We live in a very unique town and the name should reflect that. Plus, our nickname could then be the Royals. That has an 24401 Stacey Fregosi Queen City High School awfully powerful ring to it! I feel either the name or nickname of 24401 John Fregosi Queen City High School Staunton High School the town is appropriate.

24482 Matthew Frenger Donald J. Trump High School Greatest president ever! Restoring one of the historic names may help offer compromise to those who claim we shouldnt "try to change 24401 Brynne Fretwell Staunton High School history" 24401 Jonathan Fretwell Queen City High School Robert E Lee Tradition 24401 Satchell Friar Queen City High School Queen City high school Because 24401 Bridget Friel Shenandoah Valley High School Robert E. Lee High School Because history can not be undone. Barack Hussein Obama High He was the last president to deserve 22821 Adam Friend School the title.

He came from staunton and is an excellent representation of what a hard working person can do with a good education. He's a success and a good example educationally of what kids 24401 Shawn Fry Staunton High School Francis Collins highschool from a small town can accomplish

24401 Bishop Frye Queen City High School Its not a blank name, like staunton high. 24482 Denise Frye Robert E Lee N/A 24401 Amy Fullen Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School They’re classic sounding 24401 Valley high Fullwood Staunton High School Valley High School Like either of them Frosty the Snowman High School. Mascots could be Goes very well with the residents that 24401 Bradley Funk “The Snow Flakes” wanted the name changed

The choir could sing Oh Shenandoah at every concert and nobody would have 22980 Dave Fuqua Shenandoah Valley High School any complaints about that. 24401 Brad Furr Queen City High School I think it appropriate 22801 Lena FW SchoolyMcSchoolFace Because it is very important to me 24401 George G Staunton High School n/a I got a little girl waitin on me and I want 24401 Mike G Staunton High School Creole Williams High School to treat her right. 24401 Kristin Gaffney Staunton High School A reasonable choice 22802 Rachel Gaghan Staunton High School It's the original name The city was named after her me Class of 1973. I think this a bunch of BS 24401 pamela gaines Lady Staunton High School anyway

Royals ties in the Queen City idea and 24401 Lucy Gaines Staunton High School Staunton Royals (mascot) also the color from the old Lee HS. Queen City royals, or Staunton royals, just use I go to Lee, these are the names I'd like 24401 Victor Gaines Queen City High School Staunton High School royals, it's cool to see Lee High School. Just remove the Robert E. Could Staunton is prior name. Just "Lee" represent Spike Lee, Bruce saves money and represents many Lee, etc. Makes everyone other figures that have the name Lee to 24482 D Gale Staunton High School happy. appease everyone. Staunton is our city and Staunton is our 2130 Jayne Gallagher Staunton High School school. Because it should not be changed. I attended this school and it is sad day when a school has to have the name changed because a bunch of liberals say it is offensive. This school has had a proud tradition in Virginia of being a sports leader, academic leader for 90 24557 Alex Galvez Robert E Lee yrs. Shakespeare center downtown, We have amazing performing arts programs, And come on how cool would it be to say you graduated from Shakespeare high. Besides, going to our one act competitions. It’d be quite intimidating competing against someone who goes to Shakespeare 24401 Patricia Gammon-Mccauley Queen City High School Shakespeare highschool high school. Queen City is unique, memorable, interesting, and not a Confederate 24482 Sadie Garber Queen City High School monument! Its a good name and it should stay the 24401 Ian Garber Staunton High School Lee High School same

Staunton High School was the white 22315 Erica Garber Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School high school - time for something new I feel this name accurately represents 24401 Taylor Garber Queen City High School our school. The Statler Brother’s is one of Staunton’s biggest claim to fame and Statler High School or Stonewall Jackson because we have the Stonewall Jackson High beautiful hotel here so it’s name 24401 Teresa Garber Staunton High School School branding. 24401 Ryan Garber Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School They sound good Kat Garcia SCHOOL MCSCHOOLIE Educational purposes I like it because it will represent 22980 Kristina Garcia Staunton High School Everyone in Staunton 24401 Fonda Gardnee Staunton High School Makes sense. 24401 Annie Gardner Queen City High School Best sounding 24401 Donna Garret Staunton High School relevance as a whole community This was the previous name and makes 24402 Tracey Garrett Staunton High School sense to me. Queen City is a unique, stand out name. 24401 Kathy Garris Queen City High School Robert E. Lee . Tons of students prefer queen city over 24401 James Garrison Queen City High School anything else

Reason why I close Staunton city is because it’s plain. I don’t want Queen 24401 Katelen Garrison Staunton High School City on my high school diploma. Traditional, fun, and after a great 24401 James Garrison Queen City High School Staunton High School Francis S. Collins High School alumnus 24401 Cierra Garvin Staunton High School it makes sense What it used to be called, simple, tells 24401 Sonya Gasser Staunton High School location of school Taxpayer funds should be used 24401 Tim Gates Robert E. Lee responsibly.

Because its fine the way it is. Buck up and stand for something. This society today is to worried about hurting feelings you can't make everyone happy. ROBERT E LEE HIGH SCHOOL ROBERT E LEE HIGH SCHOOL ROBERT E 24477 Nicole Gebhardt Robert E Lee High School LEE ROBERT E LEE! Because it is the name it is and it should 23320 Suzy Gee Robert E. Lee High School remain. Let us represent the 'Heart' of the Shenandoah Valley and our kids which 24401 Donna Gee Shenandoah Valley High School will bit it's future. Staunton HS because that would be restoring the original name and it makes sense. TJ Collins because he is the most noted architect of the area 23060 Helena Geipel Staunton High School TJ Collins High School (early 1900s). Queen City is new and offers a fresh start. Move forward and not 24402 Geoff Geoffrey Queen City High School backwards. Queen City Knights!!

If someone get butt hurt over a name like lee high how come we can have a Martin Luther king everything. KEEP 24401 Nickolas Georganzis Robert E Lee High School THE DAMN NAME!! ITS HISTORY! 24401 nemo george Queen City High School couse

I believe it's important to carefully consider naming the school after a woman. This is especially true considering how women have been historically ignored when naming schools, buildings, etc. Additionally, I believe that the new name should set a tone for justice and the communities commitment to righting some of its 24401 Nadine Gergel-Hackett Queen City High School Staunton High School Harriet Tubman High School wrongs of the past. 22801 Emma Ghaemmaghami Queen City High School Staunton High School N/a 24431 Samantha Gibbs Queen City High School I just think it's the best fit 24401 Mary Gibbs Staunton High School It describes the area it serves.

Because it's the high school for 24479 Diane Gibbs Staunton High School Staunton, and was the original name. It accords with hostorical naming of 24421 Pam Gibson Queen City High School Staunton.

The people need the right to vote on a A Gibson Robert E Lee name change in the general election

I think the school should be named after coach Hatcher. Staunton high school isn’t appropriate because that was a segregated school. Of these choices, I prefer Queen City but I like 24401 Michael Gibson Queen City High School Paul Hatcher High School Paul Hatcher High the best. 22980 Sherise Gibson Staunton High School Neutrality 24401 Brennen Gilbert Queen City High School John Lewis High School N/a 24401 Ron Gilbert Fighting Snowflakes City has become snowflakes Coach T was such a great leader and 24401 Karen Gilbert Talbot High School Great with kids 22980 Lindsey Gilbertson Robert E. Lee You CANNOT change history.

Of the listed names, Staunton is specific. References to the Valley are too generic. Could be anywhere in the Shendandoah Valley. However, I much prefer naming the school after Francis Collins. Such a name would be forward- looking, a role model for future 24401 Glendon Gill Staunton High School Francis Collins achievment for all the students. Love the name! COOL mascot idea 23452 Kate Gill Queen City High School queen and king Queen City High is not politically affiliated and sounds respectable and 22939 Addie Gilligan Queen City High School strong 24401 Haley Gilmer Queen City High School It isn't the exact same as the others

It’s unique and if we have to change 24401 Leslie Giorgetti Queen City High School the name it should have character. 24401 Lee Giorgetti Queen City High School Queen city royals History of staunton The school can best be identified by 24401 Nancy Glade Staunton High School naming it after the location. 24401 Susan Gleadow Robert E. Lee It should remain the same. It is the only one that doesn't sound 24401 Patricia Gleaves Staunton High School dumb out of the choices

The name has history in out area and representa a mich more positive image to children of all races and backgrounds. He was a great rolde model and a good image to display as a Booker T. Wahington community raising young kids to take 24401 Christa Gleaves Shenandoah High School Highschool on the world. It makes the most sense out of the 24401 Tricia Gleaves Staunton High School choices given

Because you shouldn't have changed it in the first place by a school board and 22812 jill glick JEB Stuart High School not by the community Simple, straightforward and doesnt 24401 Todd Glidewell Staunton High School alienate anyone 24482 Boyd Glover Staunton High School mascot = scholars Healing the community 24401 Tarah Glover Staunton High School Simple it’s cute because Queen City = Staunton City and it is not political and just in 22980 Faith Goalder Queen City High School general a cute name! 22664 Bob Gochenour Staunton High School City High School If not R E Lee then this Historically called that. Easily 24401 Lynn Gochenour Staunton High School identifiable. Waynesboro high..... staunton high.... 24401 Deborah Godbey Staunton High School makes sense he is a notable alumni that helped with 24401 Alyssa Goff Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Francis Collins High School the Human Genome Project He is a black Programmer who has inspired me to become a STEM student and has sadly taken his own life while chasing his dreams, I would lake to Terry Davis Memorial High follow him and make his dreams come 24401 Shaniqua Goldberg School true. 24401 Nathaniel Goldberg Staunton High School Clearest Because Robert E. Lee isn't good 24401 Murray Golden Staunton High School enough. It's simple, descriptive and shows pride 24401 Molly Goldsmith Staunton High School in the city.

Such an amazing Black visionary deserves too be at least the name of a school, so far he has been shoved out of history in near every facet, he is the Terry Davis Memorial High most brilliant man to have ever lived 24401 Emma Gomez School but not even mildly known. Terry Davis was such an honorable man of color who helped an entire generation progress forward in Terry Davis Memorial High technology until the end of his life, he is 24401 Dominic Gonzalez School and was a hero. 24401 Jesus Gonzalez Staunton High School It's better than the last one. 22972 Tristan Gonzalez Staunton High School Personal preferance

Queen City makes no sense because Lady Rebekah was a slave owner as well. I have already heard it referred to as the Queen City Queers, and that’s not appropriate but that is what they will be called. Staunton City Stallions is a good name. My nephews go to that school and I don’t want them to be ashamed of the name of their school. They should be proud to be called the 22972 Tina Gonzalez Staunton High School N/A Staunton City Stallions. Changing name is a stupid waste of funding that could be used for 24401 Beth Good LEE HIGH academic purposes It’s the best out of the options. At least 24401 Savannah Goodbar Queen City High School it has some character. Because Robert E. Lee isn't good 24401 VIncent Goode Staunton High School SCHOOLEY MCSCHOOLFACE enough. 24401 Bob Goodfellow Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School Cant erase history

24401 Miles Goodloe Queen City High School Francis Collins High School Its the only choice that didnt suck Much less taxpayer money spent on rebranding. Just a thought. Otherwise 22903 Patricia Goodloe Lee High School name it Staunton High. Changing the names of schools was Hitlers first step in promoting the Nazi 37801 Ed Goodrow Robert E. Lee party. It’s cooler than Staunton High School 24401 Henry Goodson Queen City High School and more unique I feel that Queen City is name that all sides can get behind and it is not in 24401 Mandy Goodson Queen City High School honor of any person

It’s more interesting than Staunton and 24401 Reese Goodson Queen City High School Queen City Royals will probably get more overall support. Changing the name doesn’t change the divisiveness. We need to come 24437 Lisa Gordon Robert E Lee together and stop the madness Queen City sounds fancy. Legendary 24401 Jennifer Goss Queen City High School Legendary High School keeps the initials 24401 Jesse Gossen Staunton High School Why not. Provides clear identification for VHSL, College Boards, etc, and is a whole lot 22903 Robert Gough Staunton High School Staunton City High School less racist! They fit the students and teachers that 24401 Megan Graham Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Valley High School N/A go/work there 24401 Cassidy Graham Queen City High School I love the sound of it! It’s original 24401 Aiden Graham Queen City High School Queen city royal used to be old name 22980 Ashley Graham Valley High School Bruce lee high school Random Leave it as Robert E Lee High 24401 Sue Graham Staunton High School School Best selection

With dropping the Robert E., no person should be hurt and it's what most people say now. I say Lee High all the time. I am alumni and it just makes the 24401 June Graham Lee High School most of the name change.

The name change from Staunton High School to Lee High in the 1910's took place during an historical period when states were passing laws to restrict the rights of African Americans. The creation of monuments and the naming of schools was intended to further that effort. Changing the name back to Staunton High School honors the diversity of our city which our community has come to value instead of honoring a time period saturated 24401 Steve Grande Staunton High School Booker T. Washington with racist terror. We can’t go from a confederate soldier to a 24401 Molly Grant Staunton High School monarch Staunton High School is simple Founder of Staunton and Augusta 24401 Gary Grant John Lewis High School County Waynesboro High School is named for its place. Buffalo Gap is named for its place. Harrisonburg is named for its place. I'm proud of Staunton and with only one high school there is no reason 24401 Cynthia Grant Staunton High School it shouldn't have the name of its place.

24401 Jessica Grant Queen City High School It is the best name of the group listed

I think that it accepts Staunton as the 24401 Walker Grant Queen City High School jewel of the Shenandoah Valley.

This allows for both "offended" parties to still be recognized as relevant figures Lee-King High School (or of history. It might allow for some some other relevant opportunity for context to the debate 24401 Michelle Grauer Queen City High School combination) and still keep conversation going.

24401 Zach Gray Staunton High School It´s the only name that makes sense. 24401 Maureen Gray Staunton High School returning to it's original name

I think it honors the history of Staunton 24401 Kimberly Gray Queen City High School and moves us into a new future.

Hopefully no one will be offended by it. 24401 Lisa Gray Staunton High School It should NOT be named after a person. Because she was a dynamic person who loved the community and her 24401 Leona Gray Staunton High School Cynthia B. Gray school whats the reason for the 5 names 24482 anthony greaver Donald J Trump High School chosen?

24401 kenneth greaver Staunton High School woodroe wilson high school my opinion

24401 June Green Queen City High School I did not choose to change old name

24401 Nevaeh Green Queen City High School Queen City Royals Used to be the nick name of the town

Anaya Green Queen City High School Queen City royals Because its another name of our city. It fits the area and represents great 24472 Joe Green Robert E Lee high school leadership

22802 Hannah Green Staunton High School Hunter Talbott High School Makes the most sense Terry Davis memorial High A person who has done great things for 24401 Nathan Green School us 24440 Jeffrey Green Queen City High School Staunton High School You should have left it Idk 24401 Adam Greenbaum Staunton High School Seems most appropriate

24477 Brenning Greenfield Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Statler Brother High School Positive name

24401 Ronald Greenfield Donald J. Trump High School To honor our president. Jerry Greening Queen City High School It’s nice 24401 Sharon Greening Queen City High School It has a nice flow 24401 Emma Greening Queen City High School It sounds nice

The students of the school feel as if this is the best choice and it makes them 24401 Michael Greenleaf Queen City High School excited for the name change. Queen City high school has a nice sound, and makes the school sound like it has pride. Instead of the usual city name most high schools have, we could 24401 Arianna Greenleaf Queen City High School use what staunton is well known as. I don’t think the name should be 24401 Dalton Greenlee Queen City High School Robert E. LEE changed 24401 Linda Gregory Staunton High School best for community 24401 Colby Gregory Staunton High School NA The best alternative choice.

Richard Henry Lee was an American statesman from Virginia back in the 1700's. He was a key figure in calling for the independence of be American colonies from Great Britain. He was the fourth president of the Congress of the Confederation and a United States Senator from Virginia. He was in notable historical figure from Virginia Richard Henry Lee High back in the 1700's. He was also a signer 22903 Preston Grice School of the declaration of independence. 24437 Harley Griffin Harley Birth name 24401 Clint Griffin Queen City High School Robert E lee Idk

Study History and realize that Robert E Lee ended the civil war to reunite the country. Also study history to understand who Abraham Lincoln added to his administration to reunite the country after the civil war, Robert E Lee. Why do a couple of board members have the right to change the name of a school that represents the man who ended the civil war and helped to unite the country. STUDY HISTORY and quit listenening to people who are uneducated and influenced by 24401 Travis Griffith Robert E Lee High School people who don’t know history.

I believe all 3 of the former high schools could be represented. Change the name to Staunton High School, nickname the Generals, and use the 24401 Kevin Griffith Staunton High School school colors of Booker T. Washington.

24401 Sally Griffith Staunton High School It is a simple non-controversial name Because staunton high is not moving 24401 Dennis Grimm Valley High School forward You can't move forward w/Staunton High so I just like the sound of Valley 24401 Loretta Grimm Valley High School High Harambe Memorial High Harambe died for our sins. If not now, 22801 Gritty Gritty Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School School then when?

24401 Jacqueline Groff Staunton High School N/a Pick a name that represents the city I chose this because my niece will graduate from there in 2020 and she prefers this name. It will be her alma mater, so I think she should have a 24401 Shannon Grogg Queen City High School voice. 24401 Angela Grogg Robert E Lee High School The name should stay as is. 24401 Joshua Grooms Shenandoah Valley High School Heritage High School Heart of where it's located

Queen City high school is representative of the city of staunton but carries no affiliation with a person and is therefore impartial while also holding traditional value. It is also unique and sets the ground for the name of the high school to be a source 22812 Matthew Grooms Queen City High School of pride. Have no name at all Then it 22801 Mark Groseclose would offend nobody Because this discussion is infantile 24401 Krystal Grough Queen City High School It’s the Queen City Nationally known contributor to 24401 Bonnie Grove Feancis collins medical field and respected

It worked just fine for many years. Stop 22401 Evan Grover Staunton High School Lee High School pandering to special interest groups. Simple, and I like having our town’s 24401 Heather Grow Staunton High School name represented 24401 jordan grubb Queen City High School none original 24401 jordan grubb Queen City High School sounds nice 24401 jordan grubb Queen City High School none could keep colors

I have written an email to the school board in the past suggesting the name Queen City. I was one of many or maybe even the first to suggest that name. I think that name would suit Staunton perfectly considering Staunton is known as Queen City. The name is also very inclusive and should not bring any more controversies to 24401 Makena Grubbs Queen City High School our town. It's appropriate since Staunton is called 24401 Maria Guertler Queen City High School Queen City

24401 J. L Guf High school. Because school board the real name It would be a cool name like no other 24401 Hailey Guffey Staunton High School Valley High School Monsters High School high school 24401 Katherine guffey Guffey Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Cause it nice name

I really don’t think a name change is warranted but using Lee appears reasonable with minimal disruption to the students and anyone opposed plus 24482 Peggy Guffey Lee High School it would not be as expensive 24401 Alie Guillory Queen City High School Queen City is cool Shenandoah, Shenandoah valley and valley high didn’t seem to make sense to me because there are many high schools in the Shenandoah valley so I’m not sure what sets ours apart to hold the name. Queen City would be my number 2 choice but sitting in the stans yelling ‘go queen’ just didn’t seem to 24401 Kristen Gundling Staunton High School fit. Staunton high seems fitting :)

It's the most logical. It's unique and represents our city and no other locality. Valley High has been used by 24401 Ogden Guthrie Staunton High School another Virginia school. Simply the name of the city. Locations are less controversial than using 24467 Josh Gutshall Staunton High School people’s names. Sapphos high school(She All the other names are bland and was a greek possibaly boring and generally crappy. Queen 24401 Rose Gutterman Queen City High School lesbian poet) City is the most creative.

Francis Collins is the head of the National Institutes of Health and a key researcher in the Human Genome Project. His contributions to the field of science are enormous. Of course, he is 24401 Connor Gwin Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Francis Collins High School also a Staunton native.

Think it should stay same but if going to change then Staunton High. Just like 22939 Mitzi Gwin Staunton High School Keep same Wanyesbor, Stuart's Drafft, Ft Defiance. 24401 p h Queen City High School staunton okay 24401 D H Queen City High School Sounds well mannered

24401 Emily H Staunton High School Kind of like waynesboro high school

22812 Van Hackett Staunton High School It was the original name of the school. 24401 Makayla Hackett Queen City High School It is not offensive 24401 Allan Hadfield Queen City High School Its the queen city!! It’s a better version of staunton high, 24401 Mary Hadfield Queen City High School and makes sense Let's get the Staunton name out there! A note for the survey, I hope that you are able to collect only one answer per 24401 Elizabeth Hadley Staunton High School IP address. 24401 Leslue Hager Lee High School Staunton is known for Lee High. Queen City is another name for Staunton, and I think it's more unique 24401 Allison Hahn Queen City High School than Staunton High School. I graduated from Lee High 1973 and that is what I called my school.. Not sure when I learned my school name was named after a man in History but my probably from US History class. My thoughts of this was that's pretty cool but I still called my school Lee High. I was proud of all the students and faculty for letting people be who they wanted to be. I don't remember racial problems fights or issues then not sure why there is a big deal now and since it is just take Robert E off and this would be cost effective and those who were opposed would get partially what they 24477 Cathy Hahn Lee High School want. 24401 Claire Hahn Staunton High School Staunton In the spirit of unifying Staunton, ne 24401 Deven Haigis Staunton High School the school after the city. 24401 Robert Haigler Queen City High School Staunton history 24401 Tyler Hain Staunton High School It is a high school in Staunton 24401 Spencer Haines Staunton High School Staunton City High School Na 94587 Pippa Hairston Turner Queen City High School Classy and appropriate Dodges copy right infringement on the name Stan Lee and let's the team 24401 Kyle Hale Staun Lee remain the Leemen The city has the name of the Queen City, since Robert E. Lee is no longer an 24401 James Hale Queen City High School option. It has connection to Staunton and not a person another human would be 24401 Lexi Hale Queen City High School offended about

Robert E Lee highscool. Look we go to the school we should have a school wide vote to decide whether to keep the name or change it. Bc basically the name change is coming from a minority of people. And if we based all our decisions on the minority opinions where would be. I thought we live in a society where democracy where the Peace and to stop the arguing in my 24401 Tahlib Haliburton Queen City High School majority rules. school 24401 Tyrese Haliburton Queen City High School Best choice 24401 Christina Hall Queen City High School I lik it It’s non political and fits the beautiful 24401 Lexi Hall Queen City High School Queen City High School city. Simplicity for Staunton high school and a reach across the aisle for booker Lee 24401 Chad Hall Staunton High School Booker Lee Washington Washington Restoring history and its easy to remember based upon geography. Also, if a person is needed then an underrepresented minority and gender 24401 James Hall Staunton High School Rita Wilson High School group is appropriate. 24401 Kaleb Hall Queen City High School Sounds better

Anything else may offend someone. 22980 Sherea Hallberg Staunton High School People are way too sensitive.

Name of our city, makes sense with 24437 Blair Halterman Staunton High School neighboring county/city schools It should be Staunton High School because our Athletic programs are amazing and it would be great if I didn't have to explain the pronunciation of 21224 Raleigh Ham Staunton High School N/A my hometown. It makes the most sense, its plain and 24401 Farah Hameidan Staunton High School simple.

Lee fought under the false belief that 33324 Bradford Hamilton Queen City High School whites were superior to blacks. The Current name of our high school is 24401 William Hamilton Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School P S #1 deemed unaccepatbloe

School is located in Staunton, does not 24401 Geraldine Hamilton Staunton High School represent all of the Shenandoah Valley Because it honors the name of a great 24401 Ann Hamilton Robert E. Lee High School Virginian. 22841 george hamlet Staunton High School don’t change it. it’s stupid

Literally less than 1 in 4 people wish to change the name and yet here we are. People are so careless about what really matters like improving test scores, getting Bessie Weller accredited, raising teacher salary or anything remotely useful to the good welfare of the students. Instead we have to change the name to cater to the what the entitled feel it should be. It’s bullshit. Who cares about changing the name. It’s just an excuse to erase history & sugar coat history. Focus on 24401 Danielle Hammer Staunton Snowflakes what actually matters!

This town is soft. Sick of minority rule(1 in 4 want change). Sick of PC bullshit 24401 Mike Hammer Staunton Snowflakes and liberals erasing history. 24401 al hammer Staunton High School queen city is horrible

Pretty self explanatory. Non- controversial historical figure who is 24401 William Hammer John Lewis High School obviously pretty important to Staunton.

29420 Roger Hammond Robert E Lee It has been and still is a great name! Can’t your money go into furthering education???? Versus a schools name? Seems selfish that older generations mostly out of school are wanting the change, why not ask the students? Would you rather change a name or have better equipment to further your 22980 Nic Hamner Staunton High School Robert E. Lee education within this facility. 24401 Rebecca Hampshire Staunton High School Makes sense 24401 Ethan Hampton Queen City High School no Because it sounds good

The Harry Potter festival downtown is 24401 Shelby Hampton Queen City High School called "Queen City Mischief and Magic"

Taking the historic name off is a ridiculous politically correct move. Robert E Lee was not only a general for the Confederate States of America, but he was an educator and scholar. That part of his legacy is being ignored by some boneheaded people who have nothing better to do than stir up 24486 Norma Hampton Erase History High School trouble. MLK jr is an idol of mine and 24401 Rachel Hamrick Shenandoah Valley High School MLK jr high Shenandoah valley is appropriate

24401 Tyler Hamrick Queen City High School John F. Kennedy High School Awesome President 24401 lauren hamrick Queen City High School Lee high school nothing to say It sounds cool and it’s the city’s 24477 Andrew Hancock Queen City High School nickname so it’s not far fetched 24431 Stephanie Hancock Queen City High School Most obvious choice

24401 Kaia Haney Queen City High School My fellow peers all prefer that name

I didn’t like any of the others listed. There is more than 1 high school in the Shenandoah Valley, and “Shenandoah High School” leads one to believe the high school would actually be in 22827 Sydney Haney Staunton High School Shenandoah. 24401 Charles Hanger Staunton High School Lee High School Staunton because of our city. Makes the best sense since it's the only 24421 Derek Hanger Staunton High School High School in Staunton.

Save the money and fund the Robert E. Lee High School education of the students rather than 24401 Karen Hanger OR Lee High School worrying about being politically correct. 23434 Carrie Hankes Staunton High School It’s simple Because I will be going to this school 24401 Deasiah Hankins Queen City High School Queen City royals and i want a nice name for it 24401 Imani Hankinson Queen City High School Historical reference, unique sound 24401 Robert Hann Queen City High School Because it's perfect Limits any possibilities for future 24401 Stephanie Hanna Staunton High School disagreement on name 24401 Emily Hanna Staunton High School Staunton City High School Location It makes the most sense to me and 22802 Tillie Hannah Staunton High School shouldn't offend anyone. 22802 Desta Hansen Queen City High School All the other ones are dumb It is sensible and shouldn't offend anyone, no matter their views on the 24401 Eric Hanson Staunton High School matter Honner science and technology and the astronauts who lost their lives in the 22980 Derek Hardy Challenger High School presuit of such.

PAUL HATCHER HIGH He is synonymous with the exisitence 24401 KIMBERLY HARDY Queen City High School SCHOOL of the High School in Staunton If I was a teen, I'd love to have the City of Staunton's name as part of my high 24401 Debbie Hargus Staunton High School school. I graduated from the school, had fond memories, and I don't want my heritage to change any more than it 24401 William Harlow Robert E. Lee High School already has. Graduate who made huge scientific 24401 Jessica Harlow Queen City High School Francis Collins High discovery Maybe you won’t have to spend so much money changing the names on Lee High School (drop the things if you keep it similar to what it is 24401 Cynthia Harlowe “Robert E.”) now. 24401 Alicia Harman Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School They sound dignified. This is all nonsense. We teach and learn 22980 Lucas Harman Robert E. Lee High School from our history, not erase it.

Having it named Staunton high school just makes more sense cause we live in Staunton. I can see some of these other 24401 Jenny Harman Staunton High School names being made fun of.

It makes the most sense plain and simple. Shenandoah Valley doesn't anchor the name to the city it could be any school in the valley. Queen City will be a foreign reference to 24401 Jason Harman Staunton High School individuals not familiar local history. 24401 Kevin Harner Lee High It's what the current students call it It will garner national attention for our city, amuse the students, faculty, and Boaty McBoatface High residents for as long as the school 24401 James Harness Queen City High School School stands. 24401 Ruth Harp Staunton High School Represents the city “Staunton “... 24401 Sandy Harper Queen City High School We are known as the Queen City. 24401 Job Harrell Queen City High School Staunton High School Scooby-Doo high I like dogs Amazing teacher who passed away, and Christine Weller High the Staunton native who mapped the 1970 Kate Harrington Queen City High School Staunton High School School, or Francis Collins HS human genome

Staunton is the name that tepresents all of our students and all of our families. Valley and Shenandoah refer No other name is to other areas that ate not specific to 24401 Constance Harrington Staunton High School appropriate out students and families. 544 Andy Harrington Not a Snowflake High Self explanitory It truly includes ALL of our community. It also reflects both Staunton’s former 24401 India Harris Booker T. & Lee High School high schools. 22802 Lisamay Harris Staunton High School Your Mom The name change is ridiculous 24401 Helen Harris Queen City High School none It is not polictial 24401 Matthew Harris Queen City High School I chose it because it works for Staunton.

Reflective of the city the school is located in versus the entire area of the valley or Shen valley.. Shenandoah is a county to the north of us . not sure why 24401 Janice Harris Staunton High School that’s even an option He was a dedicated man who treated 22980 Lani Harris Hunter Talbott High School all the same 24401 Jaiden Harris Queen City High School Game City High School Just because it sounds pretty cool 24401 Jon Harris Queen City High School Staunton High School Liberty High School We all believe in liberty. 24401 Maddie Harris Queen City High School It’s the best The main reason for changing the name that I heard repeatedly was to take it back to the original. We are from Staunton and so should be called 24401 Karen Harris Staunton High School Staunton High School https://www.encyclopediavirginia.org/C 24401 James Harris Willis Carter High School arter_Willis_M_1852-1902 24440 Sandy Harris Paul Hatcher High School Coach Paul Hatcher Because there’s nothing wrong with 24401 John Harris Robert E Lee High School this name. 24401 Renee Harris Robert E Lee High School No need to change it. Cause it’s just a name of a school it’s histiry stop crying if one person gets offended they get there way it’s been 24401 Darius Harris Staunton High School Robert E. Lee high School lee for so many years Booker T would be a good way to Booker T Washington High maintain the history of the city in the 24401 Benjamin Harris Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Valley High School School high school name. 24401 Teresa HARRIS Staunton High School Lee High Should just be named after the city 24401 Catherine Harris Staunton High School Simplicity. 24401 Daizjha Harris Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School none none 24401 Shawn Harrison Staunton High School It was the original name.

What are we going to call our sports teams? The Staunton team vs The 24401 Tevin Hart Queen City High School nope Buffalo's doesn't sound right does it? 24472 Daytona Hartless R.E Lee High School You can’t change history.

He was a Coach and Mentor to many students of Robert E Lee High School and if we have to change the name of our school, I would hope it would be 540 Renee Hartless Hunter Talbott High School for the better and a positive change. I did not choose any of the options 24401 Chris Hartless Hunter Talbott High School above. 24401 Ricky Hartley Queen City High School Nothing The others sound bad Herb Hartley Robert E Lee High School Historic 22812 Lee Hartman Queen City High School Its a good name Because there is nothing wrong with the name of the school now. History happened and we are the country we Robert E Lee Memorial High are because of history and people need 22939 Heidi Hartman school to grow up. We have two many SHS's so that is out, but SVHS would work. Staunton is a nice, unique name to be proud of, and Queen City reminds me of the very successful Harry Potter festival that is 22801 Heather Hartwell Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School held in Staunton.

He was principal during desegregation at Robert E. Ler High School. He was a 23185 Michelle Harvey Charles Kurtz High School fair and well liked principal. Stonewall Jackson High Both Lee and Jackson were honorable 22402 Martin Haskins Shenandoah Valley High School School men Less common the Shenandoah Valley, Blue Ridge High School but still representing our beautiful 24401 Sarah Hatcher Mountaineers scenery 24477 Charles Hatter Queen City High School Valley High School Queen City is the best yo. 22801 Jordan Haugh Valley High School Lee High School Quit trying to erase history. 24401 peter hauschner Queen City High School Staunton least controversial History of the valley, and it sounds pretty cool! Lots of places called Staunton, but not Queen City. Plus, either would seem to be non- 24401 Peter Hauschner Queen City High School Staunton High School controversial. 24401 Robyn Hause Robert E Lee Never should of changed Stonewall Jackson High 24441 Chris Hawk Shenandoah High School School Virginia Heritage Because I'm not a low information historical revisionist, and I want to 22401 Robert Hawkins Robert E. Lee High School remember a great Virginian. 24401 Khory Hawkins Staunton High School It makes sense

If the high school is to describe our location then Staunton is the most specific. "Shenandoah" in the name is likely to lead folks to believe we are north of Harrisonburg in Shenandoah county. "Queen City" sounds too much like an actual city name and could be confusing when it is not actually on a map. "Valley" is very generic and doesn't actually pay tribute to the unique terrain of Staunton within the 24401 Christine Hawley Staunton High School greater Shenandoah Valley.

I believe we should keep it simple. If the name is Staunton High School then I think it stays in consistency with the Valley and the rest of the High Schools. For example ( Waynesboro, 24401 CHRISTOPHER HAWLEY Staunton High School Harrisonburg, Page Co., Broadway, etc) Keep it simple. Give no reason for 24401 Ashlyn Hawley Staunton High School Lee High School change in the future!!! 24401 Douglas Hawpe Staunton High School I like it 24401 Jeanne Hawpe Staunton High School It used to be called that. Willis Carter is a great example from Staunton's history of traits I would want my own children to emulate. Hawthorn Would be great to change the name to 24401 Maya Gunderson Queen City High School Willis Carter High School an African American hero.

All the other area schools are named in 24401 Leslie Hayes Staunton High School what community they are in. 24153 Becca Haynes Shenandoah High School Growth I don't really care, so someone how 24401 Neil Haynes Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School does can chose. 24401 Brook Hays Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School N/A N/A 24401 Marla Hays Staunton High School Robert E Lee High School SAVE THE NAME Because we are thr queens since we 24401 Bryanna Hays Queen City High School cant be lee high we should recognize Collins for the genome project and being a Lee High 24401 kate hazlett Queen City High School Staunton High School Francis Collins High School grad. You never listened to reasons to keep RE Lee, you don't need the reason of 24401 Lori Hazlett TJ Collins High or Lee High suggestion. Is what it is

As a graduate from the Class of 1998, I am proud of the name and don't think politics should break tradition and I am proud of attending Robert E. Lee High 44011 William Heath Robert E. Lee High School School. Everybody calls it Lee high school most of the time. Or just go back to staunton 24401 Thomas Heflin Staunton High School Lee High School high school It has a historic and positive meaning 24401 Natalie Heflin Queen City High School that fits the city 24401 Reinhard Heinrich Nigger whipping school http://boards.4chan.org/pol/

It holds no politic sway, therefore there 24401 Cathy Heintz Queen City High School will be no hurt on either side.

He was a Revolutionary War General 32024 Charles Helmick Light Horse Harry Lee and it keeps the history of Va Schoolly McHomework Whats in a name? Why take it sooooo 22903 Brian Helmick Factory and High School seriously. 24401 Ashley Helmic Helmick Lee High Continue with the Famlee I still think should be incorporated into the name also the city the school is 24401 Santiago Helmick Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton and Lee high located in

I prefer Lee High school I feel that's a great compromise. It sounds good and we can still say "we went to lee" with 24401 Kevin Helmick Staunton High School Lee high school pride. FamiLee!!!

Terry Davic was a good, moral computer program who tragically ended his life after decade of struggling with mental disorder. I would choose this name to show mental health Terry Davis Memorial High awareness as well as to promote STEM 24401 Alex Helter Queen City High School School programs in our school. 24401 Adriana Henderson Queen City High School Because I like it. Because I don't agree with the name change at all. I'm proud to be a 24401 Sandra Henderson R E LEE High School graduate of Robert E Lee 24401 Robbie Henderson Staunton High School Staunton, Va

Staunton has steadily reastablished itself as “The Queen City” and I feel that name showcases the fact that 24401 Patsy Henderson Queen City High School Staunton is moving forward 24401 Jalen Henderson Queen City High School Queen City high school Queen City 24401 Alaysia Henderson Queen City High School N/a Something different 24401 Adriana Henderson Queen City High School Queen City Panthers I feel it fits the city / school well. I like the sound of it. It’s new, without 24401 Christine Henderson Valley High School ties to any past group. 22801 Trey Henderson Queen City High School Staunton High School Fitting for the city and culture I think it's the most fitting. Staunton . 24401 Amber Hendricks Staunton High School NA And it's the old name USE A NUMBER so no one's feelings are hurt--eg. #10 24401 vee henley Staunton High School school better to have it generic

24401 Derek Hennett Queen City High School Staunton High School Best names for everyone to get behind 24401 Nevaeh Henosn Queen City High School Queen Roal high school Queen high school Change Booker T too if you 22827 Barbara Henskey Queen City High School change Lee I like it best.

It is fitting for the city. I believe the QueenCity High School would not do justice for sports team considering all 22827 Louella Hensley Staunton High School controversy with gender now going on 22827 Katelyn Hensley Robert E Lee It should stay that way. From Staunton, led Human Genome Project, director of NIH, numerous 20011 Michael Hensley Francis Collins High School awards 24401 emmanuel henson Queen City High School because i like the name 24401 Olivia Hepler Queen City High School Its tough Because Queen City sounds hood and 24401 Brittney Hepler Queen City High School Robert. E. Lee high school lee is it’s freaking name!

Terry Davis was a good, moral computer programmer who tragically ended his life after decades of struggling with mental disorder. I would choose this name to show mental Terry Davis Memorial High health awareness as well as to promote 24401 John Heralds School STEM programs in our school. Anything is better than the name of a 24401 Thomas Hern Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School traitor to our country. 24401 Javier Hernandez Robert E. Lee high School Why would you change the name Because it’s original and Staunton High 24401 Erika Hernandez Queen City High School Queen City High School School is boring and basic

I think there is no better way to rename a school previously named after a racist than renaming it after the first black president of the USA. As for Queen City, I think it has character, and highlights part of the special history 22801 Sandra Hernandez Queen City High School Barack Obama High School that is unique to Staunton. Queen City does a lot of great events for the community so I believe it deserves to be named the city’s high 24401 Alyssa Hernandez Queen City High School school 24482 Travis Herring Queen City High School Staunton High School I like them 24401 Peter Herron Shenandoah Valley High School Robert E Lee High School Name should not be changed at all. After coach T. He was an A name should honor something or inspiration to all. Make it a something. He dedicated his time and 24401 Ashley Hertter memorial. life to that school. 22802 Casey Hertzler Queen City High School Appamattox High School Robert E. Lee is pitiful

I rather have the city or our region be the nam rather than something Dumb 24401 Matt Hevener Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Scott Steiner High School (in my opinion) like Queen City.

By naming the school for its location, it creates better branding and identity. Also, conforms to the other local high schools being named for their location and by naming it after the city, gets the focus back on education and away from 24401 Robert Hevener Staunton High School partisan politics. I have too many reasons to list for such 24401 Christian Hevener Staunton High School Lee High School a ludicrous decision to occur. I believe it reflects the unity of the 91739 Lisa Heymann Staunton High School town that I loved growing up in. Money would be much better spent on 24401 Karol Hfdchh Robert E Lee real issues 24555 hhh hhh Valley High School yu

Staunton City would not be a controversial name. Thomas Howie is well respected for his leadership and sacrifice during WWII. Francis Collins is Staunton City High School, a graduate of RE Lee and has made Thomas D. Howie High invaluable contributions to science and School, Francis S. Collins medicine with the human genome 24401 Tracy Hibbitts Staunton High School High School project and as director of NIH. Thomas D. Howie High He's the Major of St. Lo. A Stauntonian 24401 Heather Hicks Staunton High School School and a hero.

I think the name we had was good just 24401 Amelia Hicks Queen City High School Lee high school take off Robert E. and just have Lee

I think the name should stay the same because its history. If we have to change our highschool name than martin luther king Jr's name 24401 Rebecca Hicks need to be changed also Because its history I didn't i personally don't care about 24401 Carver Hicks Queen City High School I don't care this. This is Staunton. This is our school...for 24401 Heather Hicks Staunton High School everyone.

Tom Holley was a war veteran that was from staunton that died leading his 24401 Logan Hicks Queen City High School Tom Holley High School army to fight a great battle

544 Adolph Hiedler Valley High School Andrew Jackson High School People are reading 'Culture of Critique' 24401 Hunter Higgins Staunton High School I dont know More locally relevant. Less confusing than naming the school similar to 24401 Hunter High Queen City High School Staunton High School Statler High School Shenandoah County. The name Queen City is both beautiful Mascot Suggestion: Queen and unique, just like the city it’s a 22980 Lauren Highfield Hersh Queen City High School City Royals nickname for. Queen City is historic and a fun 22939 Emma Hilbert Queen City High School nickname It's simple, unique, and descriptive of exactly what it is. It matches the naming convention for most of the other high schools in the area, i.e. the 24401 Paul Hildebrqnd Staunton High School community they serve. They are simple, classic, and inspiring. Thank you for the opportunity to voice 24401 Carroll Hill Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School an opinion! 24401 kyiah hill Queen City High School Paul Hatcher high school good meaning 20110 William hill Gypsy Hill high School Gypsy Hill is a big part of Staunton 24401 Maria Hill Staunton High School Its simple, not over the top..... Sounds good , non confrontational, 24401 Laura Hill Queen City High School Valley High School representative of Staunton

544 Hank Hill Donald J. Trump High School Trump is an historic unifier and leader. Staunton is a special place, and I am proud to be from there. Queen City or Staunton is the perfect way to describe what the pride and name should be 20191 Jessica Hill Queen City High School Staunton High School about 24401 Amani Hill-Howard Queen City High School It’s unique 22851 Theresa Hilliard Queen City High School It sounded good Because it not fair to the kids and 24401 Trevor Hinch Lee high school techers

I chose this name because it gave me a sense of pride hearing it. The Shenandoah Valley has many high schools but only one in our Queen City. Because of recent comments made about Lady Staunton, I feel it is best to 24401 Jennifer Hinegardner Queen City High School stay away from any specific names. Staunton high is already ancient and 24401 Amelia Hiner Shenandoah Valley High School been used Staunton is already known as the 24401 Vernon Hines Queen City High School “Queen City” I dont believe names things should be 24479 Curtice Hinkle Robert E Lee changed to satisfy a race 24401 Tamara Hinton Staunton High School n/a n/a 24401 Carmen Hinton Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Diverse and explains are location It is more interesting than the other 22980 Kathy Hiserman Queen City High School names. 24401 Colton Hisey Queen City High School Staunton High School Different 24401 Kyra Hitchcock Valley High School It makes sense and it sound fine. 24401 Gabe Hite Queen City High School Valley High School Because it’s the best name 24401 Christine Hite Shenandoah Valley High School Lee High No better choice Staunton High School identifies the location. When you see articles in the paper about schools you know who it’s about by their name. I don’t think the 22939 Gail Hite Staunton High School other suggested names do that. It should have the least argument moving forward since it is the name of our town. People are upset about the name change as it is...at least this seems to be a name that people won’t 24401 Leslie Hite Staunton High School None hate. 24401 Luther Hite Staunton High School Neutral It rolls off the tongue better than the 24401 Harrison Hite Queen City High School other options There is already a school called 24401 Betty Hite Queen City High School Valley High School Shenandoah in VA. 544 Adolf Hitler Nigger central Because there are too many blacks it fits the area and it’s history without 24401 Madison Hoad Queen City High School offending anyone 24401 Jenny Hochstetler Queen City High School Staunton High School Sinplicity 24401 Jason Hochstetler Staunton High School The school is in Staunton.

I believe that the name Queen City High School is a good name because it reflects a long-standing nickname of our city, and allows us to show our pride of Staunton. It has a better ring to it than Staunton High School and if the mascot were to be the Royals, we could keep the same colors and therefore make the transition to the new name 24401 Maddi Hochstetler Queen City High School easier. Sound good, roll off tongue, descriptive 22802 Noel Hockman Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School of area. 24401 Addyson Hodge Queen City High School I like the name

The name should remain the same. To remove the name shows ignorance. All of this giving in to remove a name a Statue etc is not the way to make anything go away. I feel this is just going to be the beginning of more hatered. There are so many things in Staunton that we all can be offended. Use this money and put it towards bettering the school with more 24401 Ingrid Hodge Robert E Lee High School technology and better resources. My daughter wants this name amd she 24401 Tracey Hodge Queen City High School Queen city knights attenda Lee 24401 Micaelah Hodge Queen City High School i like it It’s stauntons nickname and non racist 24401 Kira Hodge Queen City High School Queen City royals to any race 24401 Tonya Hodge Valley High School Shouldn’t have any back lash Queen City embraces the nickname for Staunton, and Staunton high is the old 24401 Matt Hoffman Queen City High School Staunton High School High school name. 22153 Laura Hogan Queen City High School Staunton High School Talbott High School Coach T Because it's the only public high school 24401 JaLisa Hoge Staunton High School Staunton Public High School in Staunton

Terry Davis has shown how awful guns are too many a gang member and has put them on the right track before he Terry Davis Memorial High took his own life, he was a person of 33076 David Hogg School color history should never forget. 24401 Kristin Holbrook Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Seem accurate and reasonable 24401 Will Holland John Lewis high School Was the old name of the building

I like that they include the valley we live 22939 Emma Holland Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School in instead of just the city name 21703 jacob holland Shenandoah Valley High School e Coalter Hollberg Staunton High School n/a 24401 Sara Hollberg Staunton High School simply fits the city of Staunton

The Shenandoah Valley is a big place and I think Staunton High School is more geographically descriptive name. I suggested Robert E. Lee HS as an alternate name because I’m still a little sore about the whole name change 24401 Forrest Hollberg Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School thing. Just another variation, on the one I 24436 Nathan Holliday Staunton High School Staunton City High School picked provided. 22980 Kristen Holman Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School Robert E. Lee was a part of history. It's the city name, hard to argue about 24401 John Holmes Staunton High School that.

24471 Eric Holmes Robert E Lee high school Because there is nothing wrong with it 24401 Ethan Holsinger Queen City High School I have no other no Queen City continues to speak to our heritage, and is a lovely name for the 22939 Jenna Holt Queen City High School high school I, as well as many others I know, look up to John Cena, and believe that he deserves the honor of having a school 24402 Katie Holt John Cena High School named for him. I like the name because it's different from others. There are many other schools that have the school named after the city but naming our school Queen City High School is unique in my 24401 Makalia Holtz Queen City High School opinion. 24401 Bob Holy Queen City High School It’s the best out of the others

Washington and Lee combines the names of the two high schools that used to exist in Staunton. Washington - as in Booker T Washington. This was the name of the high school for African American students before desegregation. Lee - as in Robert E Lee was the name of the all white high school before desegration. Why didn't Washington and Lee High you all do this when desegregation 24401 Sharon Honeycutt Staunton High School School happened? Staunton High is identifiable in regard to its location/ Queen City High rolls off the tongue and is unique to Staunton, 24401 Samantha Honig Queen City High School Staunton High School Va

There are so many other events in our community with the name Queen City and I think it is fitting when removing another name that the new name reflect not only the community and history, but also a name that we can stand behind and generates curiosity into who we are. The others, with the exception of Staunton High School, are far too bland and non-descript for our 24401 Audrey Hoodock Queen City High School community. We should honor Ricky Bobby and the 22827 Talley Hook Ricky Bobby High School sacrifices he made for NASCAR Because the name shouldn’t even be changed on such a old high school. If you want a new name build a new high 24401 Destiny Hooke-Bady Staunton High School Robert e lee high school school It seems better than Staunton 24401 Itali Hoover Queen City High School highschool

As a graduate of Lee, I no longer live in Staunton, but my family does. This whole name thing has really divided the community. I personally was against a name change, but now that it's happening it needs to be something that will unite the community together. Unity High School or just I hate seeing so much anger in my quite 22841 Jessica Hoover Queen City High School plain LEE high little hometown.

As a graduate and former fighting Leemen that quote means a lot to me aswell as countless others. We are and will forever be the fighting Leemen. Take Robert e out that’s fine by me. I can’t inagine a football game without hearing the fighting Leemen or reading an article without this phrase. As a tax payer I’m praying this could possibly be 24401 Brian Hoover Lee high school considered 22939 Amber Hoover Lee History 24401 Leslie Hoover Staunton High School Talbot High School Coach T was a great man! 24401 Heather Hopkins Staunton High School Please not Queen City. :) Simple and original Because of the school’s specific 22802 Don Hopson Staunton High School location.

Paul Hatcher High, Lee High They were leaders from our area that 22843 Jennifer Horn Staunton High School School, Hunter Talbott High invested in our children 24401 John Horst Staunton High School Classy and intuitive

24401 Katie Horst Staunton High School It's a city school, not a county school. George Lincoln Rockwell 544 Adolf Hortler High School more important in American history George Lincoln Rockwell it is a prolific, historical figure that 544 Adolf Hortler High spread a great message. Shenandoah makes me think 24477 Elyse Horvath Staunton High School Schooly McSchoolface Shenandoah county 24401 Kevin Hoschar Staunton High School Old name; identifies the location Because it is in Staunton and 24430 Thomas Hostetter Staunton High School no represents the city.

24479 Walker Hostetter R.E. Lee high school Because changing the name is dumb Surrounded by the Blue Ridge 24401 Vicki Hottel Staunton High School Blue Ridge High Mountains

24401 Morgan Hottel Queen City High School It makes sense and is not race offending Because I like that name the most and James Houff Shenandoah Valley High School it works for our area Look around you we live in staunton an 24401 Sheila Houff Staunton High School Valley high school its in the Valley because we are part of the Shanendoah valley and also Queen City 24401 Lily Houff Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School N/A is just a really cool name only logical name to keep everyone 24401 Donald Houser Staunton High School happy

This is about the most generic name you could choose. It's a high school, it's HOUSER KELM in Staunton, Staunton is a city. 22911 LINDA Class of 1969 Staunton High School Staunton City High School Therefore, Staunton City High School. 24401 Teri Howard Staunton High School It just seems the most fitting. Queen City is by far the best. It's unique, simple, and creates a cool and unique abbreviation. "The QC" could be Staunton's new thing to distance our public image from Lee, Jackson, and 24401 Josh Howard Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton City High School Dejarnette. The current name conjures up 30135 Warner Howard Queen City High School memories of slavery

Queen is insensitive to homosexuals, Shenandoah is insensitive to Native Americans, Staunton has negative connotations relating to white supremacy, Valley sounds like it's from California. Snowflake would be good 24402 Justin Howdyschell Snowflake High School because everyone loves snowflakes 24401 Matthew Howdyshell Robert e. Lee high school Heritage

Because the School Board decided to change the name regarless of how little 24401 James Howell Staunton High School support there actually is for this change. 24401 Justin Hoy Robert E. Lee High School Because you can't change history A unique identification of the High school that cannot be confused with 24401 Richard Hubbard Staunton High School any other school The city name encompasses city 24401 Erin Hubbard Staunton High School residents. The rest are too broad. Coach T made such an impact on all of us who attended Staunton City Schools. He was inspirational and deserves to 22969 Lauren Huck Staunton High School Valley High School Hunter Talbott High School have the high school honor him. Staunton HS makes sense with the 22843 Sarah Hud Staunton High School school being in Staunton 24401 Katie Hudson Schoolie Mcschoolface It's the best 24401 June Huff Staunton High School Lee High School Better than the other choices

Collins has made major contributions to 24401 Andrew Huff Staunton High School Francis Collins High School science and is a Staunton native 24401 Jordan Huffer Queen City Royals sounds nice.

You CANNOT change History - you learn from it - He was a fine Virginia gentleman with a distinguished Virginia heritage. His family is prominent in Robert E. Lee High School or Virginia History including Richard Henry Virginia Heritage High Lee who signed The Declaration of 24401 Lily Huffman Staunton High School School. Independence!

You can't change History! Many people attended this school and have fond memories of Robert E. Lee High School. 24401 Lori Huffman Robert E. Lee High School Leave the name alone! 24441 Doug Huffman RE Lee No need to change! Queen City Royals would be a great 24401 Ashley Huggard Queen City High School alternative

24401 James Huggins Staunton High School A welcoming name for a welcoming city.

We are righting a wrong and thus I think we should go back to the original name of the school, which more clearly 24401 Pam Huggins Staunton High School reflects its idenity and location.

24401 Anthony Huggins Queen City High School It sounds great and it's not offensive

Please honor the history and identity of this city and its people. Do not be swayed by the anti-Southern agenda 24401 Fiona Hughes Rober E. Lee High School that is in vogue at the moment..

I think that it represents the history of 24401 Bailey Hughes Queen City High School I like Queen City highschool where we live and sounds cool. The past is the past. It’s sad how the times were, but that’s how it was 24401 Robert Hughes Staunton High School Robert E Lee during that time period. 24401 Adam Hughes Queen City High School Sounded the best Bobby and benny school of 24401 Berk Hughes Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School oppression Its leet 24401 Cynthia Hughes Staunton High School It is the high school of Staunton VA It sounds nice and it would go well with 24401 Bekah Hull Queen City High School Queen city our school colors Staunton was named Queen City in 1915, which is just as historical as Lee's name change, and adds spirit and 24401 Megan Hummel Queen City High School Queen City personality Reflects Staunton's history more accurately that something general like Valley or Shenandoah, but more 24401 Suzanna Hummel Queen City High School personality that Staunton High School. 24401 Ellise Hummell Queen City High School N/A N/A Queen City is something the entire town can relate to and then 24402 Alexis Hummell Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Lee high school Shenandoah is a beautiful name.

Nathan Bedford Forrest was a prominent slave-owning Democrat, Civil War general, and founder of the Klu Klux Klan. If you are going to rewrite history and side with the Democrats, liberals, socialists, progressives, statists, then you might as well choose a figure from history that is an example of the modern Democrat 20639 Steven Humphrey Nathanal Bedford Forrest party. 24401 Joseph Humphrey Robert E Lee Scumbags on the board they sound good, but why change the 24482 Kimberly Humphreys Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Robert E. Lee name? 樂 24401 Carol Humphreys Robert E Lee Highschool It should have never come to this Great people who helped the 24401 Keith Humphries Staunton High School Statler Brothers High School community

None of the other names aside from Staunton City High School correctly advertise it's populous accurately. Also Queen City has a better connotation 24401 Greg Humphries Queen City High School where Staunton City is bland.

24401 Gavin Hunt Queen City High School Queen City Royals Used to be the nick name for the town

Queen City used to be a nick name for staunton! And Royals because we could 24401 Brooklyn Hunt Queen City High School Queen City Royals keep royal blue and white Because it’s the city of staunton. People are complaining about the old name and the history. We’ll Staunton has 24401 Sheana Hunt Staunton High School Staunton High history!

used to be the name of city. and 24401 ashlyn hunt hunt Queen City High School queen city royals wouldnt change colors because of royal Identifies where school is located & it is 24401 Carolyn Huntley Staunton High School original name 24401 Emily Hurst Staunton High School Simple, to the point 24401 Karen Hurt Staunton High School Francis Collins Non-political Best to change it so we can get back to 22980 Lucus Hutchinson Valley High School more important things. Should not be named after any individual.Choose a name all 24401 Patricia Hutchinson Staunton High School population can live with. 24401 Zackary Hutson Queen City High School Staunton High School N/a It’s not Robert E Lee

24401 Leah Huyard Staunton High School Staunton High School, plain and simple

43147 Samuel Hyde Robert E. Lee High School Because I am not a fucking Communist. It is the name of our city and we should 24401 Jessica Hyde Staunton High School be proud of our city 24401 Jeff Hylton Statler high school Statler influences on city Don't waste money that could be used 22980 Vanessa I Robert E. Lee High School in the school.

Don't change the fucking name. White people are getting tired of having their history erased. The names you suggested like "Queen City" or "Shenandoah" are fucking lame as hell. Oh wow Queen City high I chose Robert E. Lee because I'm tired school, that really rolls off of apologizing for shit that happened the tongue huh? Or better 150 years ago. Every culture on earth yet, fucking "Shenandoah" has engaged in slavery, we have high school lol. Good luck nothing to be sorry for except that we getting the ethnic students didn't have the courage to ship them at your school to pronounce back when we were done. I'm not sorry that correctly. That'll be for my past. You can't erase history. Who cares, not shortened to some ghetto Race is real and White people are like you're going I doubt anyone is slang like "Shendo" or getting tired of your bullshit. Stop 24401 to listen anyway even reading this "Doah" within a year. fucking with us. 24401 Sham Ibar Queen City High School Love High School We need more love It was the second best alternative to Queen City. I really think Queen City is 24401 Shamir Ibar Queen City High School Bruce Lee High School the most reasonable choice. 24401 Justin Ibar Queen City High School Jet Lee

I think that would be a good sounding 24477 Wendy Ibarra Queen City High School appropriate name for the high school. 24401 idk idk Queen City High School it’s different 22802 Nesi Ikote Staunton High School Staunton High suits it better 24401 Samantha Iles Queen City High School Robert E lee Why change, history is histiry 24401 Jon Iles Queen City High School Queen City History 24401 Starla Ingraham Queen City High School I like it the best Colonial Govener of VA, William Gooch was the husband of Lady Rebecca Colonial W Gooch High Staunton. (Responsible for the name 24440 Amanda Ingram Shenandoah High School School Staunton Va.).

Lee High school because most of us all call it Lee High when we are asked what school we went to and the it could not 24401 Ashlee Ingram Valley High School Lee High School have the connection with the General 24477 Mike Inmon Blue Ridge High Scool We live next to the Blue Ridge

24421 Patsy Irby Staunton High School No other suggestions It is the original name of the high school There is already a Shenandoah Hs. That 23980 Kim Irving Queen City High School would be confusing Non-controversial and represents the 22980 Dave Irving Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School area the school is located. I chose Queen City because it runs deep with the City's roots without being offensive and it is still descriptive enough because I feel "Valley" names are too broad. I chose Staunton High School because it follows the patterns of the surrounding school systems i.e. (Waynesboro High School, Harrisonburg High School, Broadway 24401 Debbie Irwin Queen City High School Staunton High School n/a High School, etc.) 24477 Lacey Iskrzak Queen City High School Its the best option. I think that a reference to the location 20855 Lois Iten Bostrom Shenandoah High School Staunton High School is neutral 24401 Isaac Izzillo Queen City High School Valley High School Not sure

If you delete any part of history, you’re I don’t like Queen City HS, doomed to repeat it. It will cost more but you’re making me pick money than I can imagine to change one. Robert E Lee High the name when it comes to how many 24401 K J Queen City High School School places it will have to happen. 24401 kayden jackson Queen City High School mountin view high i like the name alot 24401 Christopher Jackson Queen City High School Sounds great. 24401 Chris Jackson Queen City High School Staunton High School Change it back to what it used to be He inspired me to become a Terry Davis Memorial High programmer so I think he should be on 24401 Dayshaun Jackson School da school, ya know. 22980 AJ Jackson Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School The city name / the area’s name The name I suggested says it all.. Cynthia Gray represented everything 24401 Kianne Jackson Cynthia Gray High School Robert E Lee was.

It follows the norm of naming schools 24401 Elizabeth Jackson Staunton High School Staunton City High School after where they are located. Generic. 22401 Nyasia Jackson Queen City High School It represents the school well 24401 Cassi Jackson Staunton High School Robert Lee High School Keep the school the same name

Staunton calls itself the Queen City - just makes complete sense to name the 24401 Debbie Jacobs Queen City High School high school Queen City

It’s the city in the middle of Harrisonburg and Roanoke or between 24401 Makayla Jacobs Queen City High School Middle city high school Charlottesville and Harrisonburg 22033 Ashley Jacobs Staunton High School It's the name of the town. 24401 Steve Jacobs Queen City High School Valley High School Robert E Lee high school Suck my ass 24486 haha jahash Queen City High School n/a i didn’t like any others 24401 Nadia Jalloh Shenandoah Valley High School No Sounds good PJ James Queen City High School Great name for a great city 22980 Bonnie James Queen City High School Because of the Harry Potter festival Queen City is a fierce powerful name like our school. Staunton is a simple 24401 Elizabeth James Queen City High School Staunton High School compromise. 24401 Nikki Jamison Staunton High School SHS is easy and its in Staunton Woodrow Wilson High These names are most relevant to 24401 Elias Jarvinen Staunton High School School Staunton in my opinion There is already a Shenandoah high school in Shenandoah, most of the local high schools are named after the city they are in so Staunton High School makea the most sense, since the Lee 24401 Rebekah Jaskolka Staunton High School name could not be kept. Bingo Bob's House of 24401 Hugh Jass Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Boogers Just because. 24401 Hugh Jazz Valley High School White Guilt High School It's honest 24401 Kira Jean Queen City High School Queen City Knights Because its a great name History needs to be remembered and 22827 Brian Jefferson Staunton High School Robert E. Lee Lee was a great Virginian!

This is the first name that came to mind before I realized it was in the list. 22827 William Jeffrey Queen City High School Seems perfect for a Staunton school Queen City High sounds really cool & 24401 Jeni Jelsma Queen City High School ? top knotch.

It's sounds more unique than other schools and isn't problematic. Moreover if we use Queen City High School Royals or some variation of that name, we can keep the color scheme, mascots can be a king and a queen Queen City High School (diversity) and it's not politically 24401 Dakota Jenkins Queen City High School Royals incorrect. Cooler name better than staunton, staunton is named after women who 24401 Nina Jenkins Queen City High School owned slaves

24401 Bob Jenkins Staunton High School Zippy High School Its the namelf the city. Makes sense. 22003 Elizabeth Jenkins Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Liked them best I think the name fits with the city and 24401 Tyrese Jenkins Queen City High School school. I do not support the change and it will reflect when voting for the next school 24401 Jenn Jenn Robert E Lee High School board. 24401 Sarah Jennings Queen City High School Staunton High School Representing the city 24401 Mary Jensen Staunton High School Statler High Best names 24401 Dale Jensen Staunton High School It honors the city and its residents

Francis Collins is a R.E. Lee alumni and a noteworthy scientist in the geneticist community. In 1993, Collins headed the Human Genome Project, a transformative scientific innovation that allowed humans to identify thousands of diseases from DNA. He is currently the Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). By renaming the high school to “Francis Collins High School,” the Staunton community would set a precedence and recognize the importance of honoring science, innovation, and technology, leading to 24401 Arianna Jensen-Wachspress Shenandoah Valley High School Francis Collins High School a positive progression of our future. The Statler Brothers are a prominent 24401 Mariah Jensen-Wachspress Statler High School part of Staunton history If Staunton wants to erase history then you have no right profiting of history , change the next of everything in Staunton .also this is the greatest display of ignorance from our so called 24401 Stacy Jessee Robert E Lee leaders . 90001 Lame Jesus Robert E LeE Highschool Because you people are dumb 24401 Jill Jillian Staunton High School Lee high school People call it that anyways 24401 Christie Jiménez Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Logic Dont change the fucking Name ahouldnt change all cause some 24421 Dale Joe Valley High School name rainbow xhildrwn 22801 Billy Joe Queen City High School Staunton High School Queen City

It preserves actual history of Staunton Samuel Johanssen Queen City High School and it's importance in the valley Bob Johnbobson Queen City High School Midpoint It ain't racist. Queen City High School is a good name because the color Blue is now Royal Blue just like the name of the high 24401 Jasmin Johnson Queen City High School school. Keep it simple. Represents where we 24401 Sarabeth Johnson Staunton High School live

if you erase history its just going to repeate. and if you change the names of the southern genrals you need to change the northern ones too or other wise its discriminatory. robert e. lee was a crediful general, even though he may have been on the losing side 22969 leia johnson Queen City High School lee high school does'nt mean he was a bad person.

All of the students at lee agree that it is 24401 Hailey johnson Queen City High School none a cool and interesting name. 24401 Rachel Johnson Staunton High School makes sense

While I find it pointless to change the name of the high school, out of the provided options Queen City H.S sounds the best. I dont understand why it's bad to have a school named after a southern general, but naming a school 24401 Hannah Johnson Queen City High School Robert E Lee High School after a brewery is just fine. Because I didn't wnt to vote and I 24401 Billy Johnson Queen City High School Staunton High School Lee high School choose random names 24401 Dathan Johnson Queen City High School Raptor high school I think it would be cool

24401 Chris Johnson Staunton High School Jefferson Davis High School Respect Queen City Royals, non political name, provides the availability for both make and/or female mascot, kids seem to like 24401 Joseph Johnson Queen City High School the name 24486 Christian Johnson Staunton High School NA / 24401 Kaleah Johnson Queen City High School Queen City high school Royals! 24401 Lorelai Johnson Queen City High School N/A N/A 24401 Alexia Johnson Staunton High School n/a n/a

94305 Peter Johnson School Because it is pretty self-explanatory It’s located in Staunton. Most of the schools in the area are named for their 22980 Kristie Johnson Staunton High School location. Let’s go from civil war general to first 24401 Jesse Johnson Staunton High School Barack Obama high school black president.

Booker T Washington High They sound cool and like a school I'd be 24401 Sarah Johnson Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School School proud to have graduated from 24401 Tobias Johnson Staunton High School Staunton is where the school is 24401 Hailey Johnson Queen City High School It sounds good and not boring 97008 Steph Johnson Schoolie McSchoolface It's a good name. Good contribution to the community in 24401 Jesse Johnson Staunton High School Paul Hatcher High School recent time 24401 Tianna Johnson Staunton High School To get rid of Robert e. Lee high 24401 Latashia Johnson Queen City High School Royal High It’s like Queen City Sounds better than any of the other 24401 Kyrah Johnson Queen City High School ones It sounds more like a unique high school name, like all the other high 24467 Kendra Johnson Queen City High School schools in the area. Terry Davis Memorial High He is smart n stuff, and I want ta be like 24401 Daquan Johnson School him. 24401 Forrest Johnson Robert E Lee High School It shouldn’t change It’s a distinctive name for a beautiful 24401 Susan Johnson Queen City High School city Used to go to this school and this person has been a role model for me and my friend from high school 24401 Nathan Johnson Dr.David Duke High School through college

Shenandoah High sounds too much like it would be in that county. Staunton High is super generic. I like all of the 24477 Brandy Johnson Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School other choices equally =)

Queen City High School Royals so these kids can feel like kings & queens & get 24401 Tamika Johnson Queen City High School past all this negativity!! 24401 Abigail Johnson Staunton High School Simplicity and accuracy

Henry Lee was the father's of Robert E also a Revolutionary War hero and governor of Virginia. It would be a minimalistic name change and perhaps save a little money on rebranding. I also prefer Queen City since there is 24401 Carol Johnson Queen City High School Staunton High School Henry Lee High. already a Shenandoah High School 24401 Mary johnson Staunton High School It's better than the other options. 24401 Katherine Johnson Staunton High School Most simple 24401 Shanna Johnson Queen City High School Staunton High School They're relevent to the city. 24401 Rebecca Johnson Staunton High School No personal attachment!

I'm against rewriting history to appease 22801 Robert Johnson Lee High School current political correctness. 24401 Deomante Johnson Queen City High School Everyone likes it Nothing Racist or Controversial about the name. There names people use regularly when referring to our 24401 Marcie Johnson Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Beautiful city If anyone deserves a school named after them its Coach Hatcher for all the hard work and success he has brought 22939 Brandon Johnson Paul Hatcher High School to R E Lee 22980 Elizabeth Johnson Queen City High School Lee High Queen City is unique Staunton Hign is logical. To honor Dr Collins would be a great way to honor a 22939 Reggie Johnson Staunton High School Francis Collins great Stauntonian 24401 Megan Johnson Queen City High School Staunton High School Queen City fits well with our town. 24401 Sarah Johnson Staunton High School Lee, Robert E High School Similar Kayla Johnston Queen City High School I don't know I would rather keep R.E.Lee

24401 Alex Jone Donald J Trump High School He is the greatest American President I like the Shenandoah Valley and I like 24401 Greg Jones Shenandoah Valley High School Robert E. Lee High School Robert E. Lee 24401 Sav Jones Queen City High School Staunton High School Not racist 24401 Matilda Jones Staunton High School Lee High School I like it. You name me one person that had done more for children than this man 24401 Charles Jones HUNTER Tolbert high and the answer is no one.. 544 Lea Jones Donald Trump HS Hes A great man The decision was made by 18% of the 24401 Earl Jones SCHOOLEY MCSCHOOLFACE voters.

24401 Joe Jones Staunton High School Its a high school and it is in Staunton

And hopefully it won’t offend anybody 24401 Celeste Jones Queen City High School I picked this it sounds like a very cool school name 22980 Seth Jones Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School Y'all a bunch of pansies

24450 Erik Jones Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Statler Brothers High School The Statler Brothers are from Staunton

I believe that Staunton High School would be an appropriate name. I feel that it would give our school a unique identity, while also conforming with 24401 LaKeisha Jones Staunton High School other school systems within the area. 22401 Bob Jones Ronald W. Reagan Great former POTUS 24401 Andrea Jones Staunton High School Staunton High School I think it’s a good fit It tells people where you are located. 24401 Jay Jones Staunton High School Town pride. We also like Staunton High 24401 Julie Jones Queen City High School School Queen City Royals has a nice ring 2703 Carlton Jones Lee High School Keep the spirit of the school. 22989 Amanda Jones Staunton High School Ricky Bobby High School Ye ain't first yer last - R.E. Lee 24401 Ebony Jones Queen City High School I love the name It still means Staunton but in an elegant version. Queen City is well known 24401 Bridgett Jones Queen City High School throughout Staunton. Staunton High School makes the most 24401 Katherine Jones Staunton High School sense for Staunton City Jeremy Pinton Academy For Jeremy Pinton is a hero and the school 24401 Simon Jones Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Boys should only be for boys 24401 Nicholas Jones Queen City High School It’s a cool name Adolf Hitler school of 62088 Kelton Jones Shenandoah High School friendship and tolerance great George Lincoln Rockwell 544 James Jones High For our posterity It was a big deal to remove a name tied with racism from the school. Any replacement names should avoid similar ties (Staunton). I know it's the name of the city, but there's an opportunity to do better. Valley doesn't 24401 Ruth Jones Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School seem specific enough 24401 Lindsey Jones Queen City High School Best option The town is called Staunton and Francis Collins was the head of one of the most important scientific investigations of 24401 Jerry Jones Staunton High School Francis Collins High School our time. booker t. washington high 24401 mary jones Queen City High School Staunton High School school i think it would fit the school well Best describes the location of the 24401 Kaitlyn Jones Staunton High School school. Nearby high schools are called waynesboro and Harrisonburg high school. Naming the high school after the city it is in causes much less 24401 Charles Jones Staunton High School confusion. 24401 Jojo Jones Staunton High School Fuck the city of Staunton Fuck the board 24482 Keri jones Staunton High School works for other communities 24401 Susan Jones Staunton High School Simple & factual

Because Lee is just a name, doesn't have any attachment to anything, no person or entity. It's just a name Lee, 24401 Rick Jones Lee could mean anybody or anything. 24401 Clinton Jones Staunton High School Most logical 24401 Ciara Jones Queen City High School Its lit Donald John Trump High 24450 James Jones School Great American President It is the closest thing that sounds about 24401 Landyn Jordan Staunton High School Lee High School right for our area 3 Mothers & A Brother High 24401 Brandy Jordan Queen City High School School They changed it 24401 Kenneth Jordan Valley High School It's different 24401 Patsy Jordan Schoolie McSchoolface Boaty McBoatface

Staunton High School is the logical choice given that it is the original name and it falls in line with other area schools being named after the community they serve, Queen City High School is elegant and inoffensive, and if we must name the School after a person I feel that Francis Collins is a Stauntonian worthy of recognition who has made positive impacts on the local 24401 Shannon Jordan Queen City High School Staunton High School Francis S. Collins High School and global community.

24401 Sharon Jordan Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Staunton High was the Original name

24477 Claire Josefson Queen City High School Can keep the mascot and it sounds cool Staunton High School puts you right on the map; people will know exactly where this school is. Also, I believe it 24479 Hunter Joseph Staunton High School was the original name. Because we can’t chanhe a schools name just because of the person it is 22821 Emily Joseph Robert E. Lee High School named after. You can’t erase history. 24401 djkdm jrjdmd Queen City High School N/A simple 24401 Justine Juart Staunton High School Restoring the former name 24401 Stanley Juchno Staunton High School It belongs to the city of Staunton. I like Staunton since it's simple. Other 24401 Brandi Juchno Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Na two is cute.

It is plain, accurate, and should be both uncontroversial and able to become a new source of pride for ALL students & 24401 Donald Judy Staunton High School ALL of the broader community. 22920 Deborah Justice Queen City High School it’s beautiful

24401 Jackson K Queen City High School Staunton High School Bobby Shmurda High School They nice Adolf Hitler School For 24401 Dwayne D. Kaangz Friendship and Tolerance Civil rights

Both Queen City and Staunton High have no negative connotations attached to them and are non- controversial. Queen City/Staunton 24401 Nancy Kalanta Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A reflect the community

A famous Southern author/personality 24401 David Kane Harper Lee High School whom we can all support!

Staunton or Shenandoah Valley are accurate and non-controversial. They 24401 Julie Kane Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School reflect where we are. 24401 Maya Kartseva Staunton High School I like it! 24401 Mark Kasey Queen City High School Booker T I love it

Thomas Howie, “the Major of St. Lo,” was a decorated hero of the 116th Infantry Regiment who taught at Major Thomas D. Howie Staunton Military Academy and was KIA 24450 Daniel Kator Staunton High School High School during the Normandy Campaign Queen City is historic in a better way and Staunton High School is plain and 24421 Joseph Kauffmann Queen City High School Staunton High School simple Easier name change, important 24421 Jake Kauffmann Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Richard Henry Lee historical figure

24421 Madison Kauffmann Queen City High School Queen City makes sense for Staunton 24401 Paul Kazarov Staunton High School It's logical.

All the local high schools around the 24401 Shayna Keagy Staunton High School area are named after their town. Francis Collins is from Staunton and has 24401 Mark Kearney Staunton High School Francis Collins High School done many great things. 24401 Jude Keaton Queen City High School Because it’s in the city of Staunton, so it make sense to have it the same. Ex- 24401 Jo Keeler Staunton High School Harrisonburg High 24401 tanya keigley Queen City High School Harry Potter High well duh! 22846 Ali Keister Queen City High School most original Kek kek Adolf Hitler High School This dude chill I liked them. But I wish the name 24401 Amanda Keller Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School wouldnt be changed in the first place.

24477 Hannah Kelley Staunton High School Queen City High School The name was originally Staunton High. Did not see reason to change the name, 24432 Denise Kelley Staunton High School LEE HIGH I am R E Lee grad! Because those members are nothing DeJarnett. Nickname( no but spineless whomps who are out of 24401 Richard Kelley balls) touch with real life A school should be named after its 24401 Lawrence Kelley Staunton High School location. it’s inclusive and has nothing to do with 24401 nicole kelley Queen City High School politics i had 3 grandchildren graduate from lee. t.j.collins was a great architec who designed very elite homes and buildings in and around staunton you must read artical on internet about 24421 david kellison t.j. collins him..

Dr. Francis S. Collins is a graduate of R.E. Lee High School. He is director of the National Institutes of Health and he led the Human Genome Project. He is a recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. He is a highly accomplished Francis Sellers Collins High graduate and could be an inspiration to 24401 Stephanie Kellner Staunton High School School future students.

I’d like the school named for its location. Also, since it was named Staunton High School before, I think reclaiming the name makes the most sense. Some of the choices suggest too 24401 Maureen Kelly Staunton High School broad an area for the school’s location. 24401 Willow Kelly Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Names related to the land and area 24401 Colleen Kelly Staunton High School Valley High School simplicity, tradition Brings more recognition to the city. Staunton is welcoming, full of small businesses, and support for all of its 24401 Madison Kelly Queen City High School Staunton High School residents. 24401 Stacy Kennedy Queen City High School Valley High School Just have a good ring to them 24401 Dillan Kennedy Queen City High School Staunton is the queen city I like the names I chose because they are short, and are directly related to 24401 Rhianna Kennedy Queen City High School Staunton High School the location. 22980 Tim Kent Kent Robert e.Lee It's the name it should be! If you are going to change the name don’t go from one slave owner to 24401 Amy Kerr Queen City High School Robert E Lee another. Because being my tax dollars are going to pay for the school so unless very tax payer in the Valley are funding it then 24401 Jeff Kerr Staunton High School keep it local Robert E Lee High School (most preferred) Definitely not Staunton High, Staunton is named after Lady Staunton (whom owned slaves) so if you are The name doesn’t not need to change. changing the name (which is Let all of Staunton vote rather than 6 dumb) don’t go from one people to decide the future of our 24401 Isa Kerr Queen City High School slave owner to another. school. Because this whole thing is a waste of tax payer money. Do something that really makes a difference with our 24401 John Kerschke Valley High School Robert E. Lee High School money please.

I think Staunton High School is the most logical name if you are going to change it. I really wish it would not be changed. But naming it after the city it 24401 Katie Kesecker Staunton High School is in seems classic and simple. 22939 Jason Kessler Schooley McSchoolface It's the best I think it is not necessary to change the 24401 Rachel Kessler Robert E Lee High School name of the school. student lead, and it is the nickname of 22980 Diane Kester Queen City High School our city 24401 Angie Key Lee High Don't want named changed

Francis Collins is a staunton native and a graduate of the high school with a 24401 Jordan Keyser Staunton High School Francis S. Collins High School great history of scientific achievement. 22980 Paige Ki Staunton High School Most logical--name it for the city It’s the town we live In. An undeniably 24401 Michele Kielty Staunton High School unifying name

24401 Kathy Kier Staunton High School Its a high school and it is in Staunton 24401 David Kier Queen City High School colter high location A name that everyone has in common. 24401 Lark Kier Staunton High School Prodigy High School After our city. I feel this is the best option this way we can keep the royal blue and white colors. And our mascot can be kings 24401 Brooklyn Kier Queen City High School and queens.

I think we should change it to Queen City because many companies are 24401 Jayln Kier Queen City High School named that in Staunton.

Staunton High School makes the most 22602 Pede Kier Staunton High School sense and can forever remain.

General Lee was a respected figure in the History of the Staunton Area. I see no good reason to consider changing the name except to please a few people, upset a lot of people and, in my opinion, waste a significant amount of 77521 James Kilburn Robert E. Lee High School the taxpayers money.

Mr. Collins is a Staunton native who has 24482 Heather Killen Francis Collins made large scientific impact Staunton native whose work impacts all 24401 Bonnie Kimmett Francis S. Collins humanity (inclusiveness) It is the only name that could not possibly offend anyone and we do live in Staunton after all so why not name it 24401 Anne Kimmett Staunton High School after our town. Both names are the greatest in the 24401 Tina Kinard Shenandoah High School Donald J. Trump High School world 24440 Sam Kincade Donald trump Leader of country 24479 Allison Kincaid Staunton High School It’s the best option Just wanted to expand on tye fact that royal blue would play well with it all. Also I am seeing lots of supportt from 24401 Mac Kincheloe Queen City High School orher studnets. The sports teams could be the Gypsy 24401 Alan Kincheloe Staunton High School Gypsy High School Ramblers Staunton is situated on seven hills, so it will be geological . . For examplelike 24401 Sharon Kincheloe Staunton High School Seven Hills High School Buffalo Gap No potentially problematic names, unique to the area, a fun and cool 24401 Mac Kincheloe Queen City High School Queen City Royals !!!!! name. Go Royals!!!

Why not have a referendum instead of four persons determining this; allow tax payers input as they will footing the bill for new school name and all the 24401 Anne King Staunton High School Lee High School changes that go with it.

Rebecca Staunton High Who the town is named after and not 22980 Erica King Queen City High School School may schools are named after women!

I’m a history buff And you can’t change history you are suppose to learn from it so we don’t repeat the bad stuff ndy 24477 Carl King Staunton High School Lee High our cant change history 24401 Caleb King Queen City High School Good mascot, non offensive, catchy Names well represent us as a city and a 24401 Ayaunna King Queen City High School Staunton High School No community

I like Staunton High because it identifies very simply who we are. Coincides with other area high school names (Waynesboro, Harrisonburg, Stuarts Draft, etc.). For the record, I 24401 Tami King Staunton High School cast a strong vote against Queen City. 24401 Olivia King Queen City High School I think it fits the school You are changing history for your own 24401 Lacy King, Jr. Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School purposes I like incorporating our location in the Shenandoah Valley but we’re close enough to Shenandoah County schools possibly create confusion if “Shenandoah” is in the name. I believe we need to move forward for our community to heal and Staunton High School and Robert E Lee High School are in the past. We need a fresh start 24401 Amanda Kinkead Valley High School for the current and future students. So people know who are students are 24401 Kendra Kiracofe Staunton High School and where they are from.

I am a 1974 graduate af Lee High. Staunton High School is the most specoanf distinctive name. More than one municipality called itself the Queen City (i.e. Charlotte). There are many valleys and many high schools in the Shenandoah Valley. The names Shenandoah High, Shenandoah Valley 28146 Barrie Kirby Staunton High School High, and Valley High are too general.

You cannot change the past. Lee was a native son to Virginia who was offered to be in charge of the union forces. His loyality was to his home state of Virginia. He was a brilliant military leader and deserves to be honored as a Virginian. Congress passed an act saying ALL veterans from the Civil war Robert E Lee High school. If are American veterns. This is stripping a in 150 years people look state hero’s title because our history back at Facebook as a means isn’t ideal. Ulysses S Grant is on the $50 for pedifiles to lure children bill and he came up with the concept of does that mean everyone total war which killed innocent civilians who used it was a pedofile? and destroyed towns. His What if people who change administration during his presidency these names in 100 years was loaded with corruption, but he is are deemed evil for considered a “hero”. Social norms changing history? Are you a change over time and we will never 24401 Eric Kiremsky Staunton High School bad person? have a clean history. 24401 priest kirk Staunton High School idk They reflect the city far better then R.E. 24401 Marcelle Kirkland Queen City High School Staunton High School Lee. It’s more inclusive It was what the school used to be called 24401 Catherine Kirkland Staunton High School back in the day.

A lot of high schools are named after presidents. Who better to honer than the first black president. This school name change is what change and 24401 Brittany Kirkman Staunton High School Obama high school progress is all about!!! Yay Staunton!!!

24401 Richard Kirtland Shenandoah Valley High School Francis Collins High Founder of the Human Genome Project 24401 Frank Kirtley Staunton High School Its fitting Alumni and proud graduate of R.E. Lee 28079 Rick Kite Robert E. Lee HS HS

24401 Steve Kite Valley High School Donald J Trump High School MAGA 22952 Mikhela Kitt Queen City High School Queen City high school It sounds really nice 24401 Mary Kivlighan Staunton High School Its the name of our city. Not offensive. Good names for our 24401 Hanna Kivlighan Queen City High School Staunton High School town. It is simple, it helps brand the city, and it has historical significance as the 24401 Mia Kivlighan Staunton High School original name of the school. I grew up in Staunton, and I think it would be nice if the high school 24401 Isabel Kivlighan Staunton High School represented the city I have a picture of William Owen a Kivlighan, Class of 1921, football picture, my father in law. I do not think 24401 Joan Kivlighan Staunton High School Robert E Lee High School we should disregard our past. 24401 James Kivlighan Staunton High School I like the name This was the name before and it makes the most sense. Let’s be proud of our 24401 Laura Kivlighan Staunton High School city.

24401 Mary Kivlighan Staunton High School Original and has no political conotations We are Staunton and this name 24401 James Kivlighan, Jr Staunton High School completely includes ALL of us. 24401 AAron klein Queen City High School no no The school is able to retain the FamLee pride. The alumni is able to keep some 24401 Tella Klein Lee High School of their school name. 24401 patrick klein Queen City High School queen city becUSE IT MAKES SENCE

Because at one point we were 24401 Kaya Klein Queen city high school called.queen city plus it sounds nice Because of his history associated with 24477 Fay Knicley John Lewis High School the founding of Staunton Honors an important and relevant author, and it's an easy name change 22936 Walter Koch Harper Lee High School that saves money!

Barbara H. Grant was a pillar of the Staunton community, serving on the committee that built the Gypsy Hill Park pool, the Board of Trustees for the Woodrow Wilson Birthplace, and the Blackfriars Playhouse Board of Directors. Naming the high school after Ms. Grant would serve to continue to honor her memory and would follow the tradition of naming Staunton City Barbara Hunter Grant Schools after prominent community 24401 Michael Koch Memorial High School figures. 24401 Lianne Kochis Staunton High School Previous name of high school Subjective just to this area. What about 24401 Carter Koehn Queen City High School Staunton High School School the students that don’t?

24401 Sarah Koerner Queen City High School It’s unique and sets the school apart. Connects to sense of place, no controversy, no schools with same 24401 Becky Kohler Staunton High School name Represents the city of Staunton as a locale, not any individual. Any of the “Valley” options are too generic. Staunton is but one small part of the 24401 Marc Kokosky Queen City High School Staunton High School larger Shen Valley A city with one school should name it in a way that everyone who lives there 24401 Daniel Kolecki Queen City High School can identify with it. 24401 Peter Kolinsky Queen City High School most creative name Naming the school after the area it serves is appropriate and in keeping with other area high schools (Waynesboro, Albemarle, 24401 Jamie Kollar Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Charlottesville, etc). 24401 anna kopia Queen City High School the best choice 24401 Stephanie Kopia Staunton High School Simplicity

Staunton High School because it personalizes where we are and what city out teams represent. Staunton Sabers as a mascot (sabertooth tiger) . Because it’s different than anything Mascot idea: Staunton around us. A sabertooth tiger with 24401 Brian Kopia Staunton High School Sabers huge fangs would simply be tough 24401 Sarah Koska Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School They were the options I preferred. R.E. Lee never personally bothered me, but I will always support trying to change something if it bothers someone else and has no negative impact on others. I think Queen City has a nice ring to it and sounds magical. 24401 Mari-Peyton Kouchinsky Queen City High School Good luck! Queen City defines our town and is all 24401 Sophie Kozlowski Queen City High School Staunton High School inclusive Aretha Franklin was a legend, a shining example of humanity, and a beautiful person. She’s a figure that deserves to be honored, but that shouldn’t be 24401 Meghan Kramer Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Aretha Franklin High School controversial. 24477 Ben Krassoi Robert E Lee High Dont change the name

Ricky Bobby is an infinitely more interesting, and inspirational figure for kids to emulate than a general that Cody Kratzer Staunton High School Ricky Bobby High School. fought for a failed slave-state.

CAUSE IT IS PART OF HISTORY. Erasing it is the same as telling people nothing 24401 melissa Kreusch Valley High School Robert E. Lee High School we learn in history class is true.

A name to honor the Native Americans. Doesn't have to If you plan to honor Lee's history, 24401 Sandra Krichbaum Queen City High School be a person. honor Booker T And Thomas Jefferson 24401 William Krupnik Queen City High School Staunton High School Sounds good Deep history of Staunton and Augusta 24401 Brandon Krusz Queen City High School co. It has a nice ring to it. It is memorable 24401 Jai Kuehle Queen City High School and not too plain. I go to Lee but since whinny babies 24401 Ashley Kummer Queen City High School have feeling i picked.this one Names are related to the city, rather than the broad geographic location 24401 Nicholas Kurland Queen City High School Staunton High School (Shenandoah). 24401 Robert Kyler Staunton High School Neutral and descriptive They refer specifically to the city in 24476 Mia Kyler Queen City High School Staunton High School which the school exists. Myles L Shenandoah Valley High School Mary Baldwin High School Famous Educator from Staunton 24401 K L Queen City High School Neutral

I don’t think the make should change in the first place. No matter what you change it too it will always be Robert e 24401 Samantha L Staunton High School Lee high school lee high school! it’s what is has always been called leave 24401 nicole l robert e lee it be!! Most high schools in area are identified 24401 Megan Lacey Staunton High School by area. Francis Collins is an accomplished geneticist who is a graduate of the 24401 Jason Lackey Staunton High School Francis Collins High Staunton School System. We are the queen city of the Shenandoah valley. Our mascot should 24401 Kristen Lackey Queen City High School Queen City Royals be the fighting knights

24401 Samuel LaClair Queen City High School Not offensive in any way whatsoever. Because this is the dumbest bunch of 22980 Robert Lafferty Robert E. Lee shit ever. 24401 Matthew Lail Robert E. Lee High School Because I am a tax payer 24401 Ronda Laird Staunton High School Represents the city Staunton High School is a general/generic name and doesn't favor any individual and therefore 24431 V Lam Staunton High School shouldn't be offensive to ANYONE. 22827 Buck Lam Robert E. Lee High It meeds to stay what is is known as 24401 Keisha LaMay Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton Lee High School It’s a part of our history

For the beautiful mountains that surround and protect us. That also provides us with a beautiful picture to look at every day, with fall in it's vibrant color's, winter with it's sparkleing white, spring with it's beautiful sunsets and rainbows, and summer with it's 24401 Lori Lamb Staunton High School Blue Ridge High School deep green! Sad it is being changed. At least name it 22840 Sarah Lamb Staunton High School neutral because why change because u 24401 matthew lamb robert e lee high school members have a thumb up your ass 22802 Ashlyn Lambert Queen City High School Awesome name!!!

Statler becsuse theyre probably most famous people from Staunton, great 22902 Gary Lambert Shenandoah Valley High School Statler singers, no cntroversy as far as i know.

24401 Brittany Lambert Staunton High School Donald Trump High School Because this shit is ridiculous 22980 Justin Lambert Queen City High School N/A It’s different 24401 Barbara Lambert Staunton High School Clearly identifies school & location. The school name should reflect the city's name because even though we can't all agree that the name should change, everyone does love Staunton Sara Lamneck Staunton High School and is proud to call it home.

Honestly, it’s the coolest on the list. Think about the possibilities—go 24401 Sophia Lanctot Queen City High School Queen City Royals! 24467 Brad Landes Lee Best name Some others are too generic (Shenandoah) and Queen City High 2478 Mary Lane Staunton High School School sounds fake. We are very proud of Staunton and 24401 Elizabeth Lane Staunton High School think the name would reflect that.

Staunton puts us in line with other local high schools named after their locations: Waynesboro, Ft Defiance, Riverheads, Stuarts Draft, Buffalo Gap, makes it clear our high school represents Staunton, a locality on the 24401 John Lane Staunton High School High School upward move We certainly wouldn’t want to insult 22939 Deborah Lane Public High School No. 1 anyone or anything!!!!!

22846 Scott Lane Donald Trump High School He is the 45th President. Dr. Francis Collins who is the NIH 22939 Christophe Langouet Staunton High School Valley High School Collins High School director went to Lee 24401 Madilynn Langston Queen City High School It is creative Because history you teach is not correct 94305 John Larance Shenandoah Valley High School R.E LEE remain the same and the man wasn't racist. 24401 Susanna Larner Staunton High School Represents the city.

24401 Jason LaRose Queen City High School Staunton High School Simplicity, accuracy, non-controversial Changing the name seems a bit 24401 Autumn Larson Robert E Lee ridiculous It is unique and reflects the uniqueness 24401 Anna Laser Queen City High School of Staunton 31905 Nicole LaShure Queen City High School Staunton is the queen city.

I graduated from R. E. Lee so something of this name should stay so us older ones can say yes this was a real school 24401 Winter Laverty Staunton Lee High and I did graduate. 24401 Laura Law Queen City High School Not to name it after a person. Because Staunton is already considered 24401 Elizabeth Lawhorn Robert E. Lee High School the Queen City. Changing the name is wasteful and 24401 Kenneth Lawhorne Robert E. Lee High School serves no purpose.

22980 Donna Lawhorne Lee Changing the original name offends me 22801 Alyssa Lawhorne Staunton High School It makes the most sense. The money should be spent on education, not something as 24401 Alecia Lawhorne unimportant as a name change. 24401 Garrett Lawler Staunton High School No Because it’s staunton Neither are related to anything historical and both sound good to the 24001 Kinsley Lawler Queen City High School Shenandoah High School ear. 24421 Amy Lawrence R E Lee High School It should not have been changed

Staunton High School was the school’s original name. Queen City High School 24401 Martha Lawrence Queen City High School Staunton High School would be unique to Staunton. 24486 Logan Lawrence Queen City High School G 40505 Zachariah Lawrence Ricky Bobby High School It's a good name 24401 Nate Lawrence Staunton High School It's straightforward and simple. 24401 Hallie Lawson Shenandoah Valley High School I like it and it sounds cool Why change it..why did it come to a 24482 Angie Lawson Shenandoah Valley High School Robert E. Lee High School change??

I believe Robert E. Lee is the best name for the school. Why change it? It will be costly for all sports uniforms to be changed. Then there’s the mascot to choose and what the team name shall be. I don’t really like any of the name suggestions you generated for this 22980 Melissa Lawson Shenandoah Valley High School Robert E. Lee survey. Leave the name alone.

The name change is fucking retared as 24401 Adam Layer Queen City High School Robert E lee high school fuck you are some ignorant fucks 24401 Shelby layfield Queen City High School because if i’m going to choose a new name for my school it should be a good one such 24401 shelby layfield Queen City High School as Robert E. Lee 24401 Bill Layfield Staunton High School Not much to choose from 22812 STEVEN LAYMAN ROBERT E LEE HS IT SHOULD STAY THE SAME It's time to reflect the diversity of our community by changing the name. Queen City has a great ring to it, and reflects the positive side of Staunton's 24421 Brenna Layne Queen City High School history. 24401 ghita lazaar Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A N/A

The name encapsulates the unique Tracy Le Queen City High School qualities of Staunton and this school. The other names are going to cause 24401 Ryan Leach Staunton High School many more problems If it cannot be R.E.Lee - then because located in Staunton it should be called 22939 Angela Leach Staunton High School Staunton High.

cost to change name has not been 24401 Davie Leach R. E. Lee High School determined..no need for name change Need to see results for reporting News Leader purposes 22902 Jordan Leahy Staunton High School Only one that makes sense 24401 Desiree Leake Staunton High School It’s the only one that makes sense. 24401 Hunter Leap Staunton High School Robert E Lee High School Is Not Right 24401 Evelyn Leavitt Queen City High School Staunton High School It’s a cool name 24401 Ray Leavitt Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Best of the choices provided. Mostly a vote against the ones I didn't pick. Collins in reference to the 24401 Anna Leavitt Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Francis Collins or Collins architect and the scientist. It embodies Staunton’s history as the Queen City and is non-controversial. The Queen City is someone everyone 24401 Matt Ledford Queen City High School can get behind. 24401 Sara Lee Queen City High School Staunton High School N/a Staunton high school was the original 24401 Kathleen Lee Staunton High School Kathleen Lee name. PC High Home of the 24401 Robert Lee Offended It fits the nimrods on the school board 24401 Robert Lee Robert e. Lee high school Its my name foo 24401 Robert Lee Robert E. Lee Should not be changed Dumb Ass Liberals High Cause you all are a bunch of Sore 24382 Robert E. Lee School Election Losers!!!

It connects the school to the city and all of it's history...and easily will have the 22821 Sam Lee Staunton High School least amount of controversy Robert Lee NIGGS HIGH HATE NIGS Nothing wrong with it, why destroy 544 Robert Lee Robert E. Lee High School your heritage?

Take off Robert E. And leave it as Lee High because that is how everyone knows it, and use LEE as an acronym for 24401 Harleigh Lee Staunton High School Lee High School something educational or fun :) Because that has been the name for more than 100 years and it makes absolutely no sense to chang it now because of the way it might make some 24401 Robert E Lee Queen City High School Robert E Lee Highschool one feel. 24482 Robert Lee Liberal High Why do you think.... 12345 Robert Lee Shabbos Goy High School Good goy Liberal Snowflake High 24401 Robert Lee School Because that's who made this decision. 24401 Barbara Lee Staunton High School I like it. Staunton High I felt it was good names for the city 22980 school Lee High Staunton High School City High high school Because that’s what we’re known has 24401 Lee High School Lee High school Lee High School and to save money 24401 Lee high school Lee high school Lee high school It is what it is and save money Shenandoah Valley captures the essence of the area and sounds 24401 Glynis Legrand Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School sophisticated. 24401 Jim Lehey Robert E Lee History

Don't like Staunton High School at all. 24401 Heather Leigh Valley High School Valley was the best of the choices

Please do not divide the community any further by choosing anything other 24401 Joseph Leigh Staunton High School than Staunton High School We get to keep the colors (royal), 24401 Gabriella Lentini Queen City High School Queen City High School sounds cool, isn’t basic

22602 Lucinda Lentz John Lewis Maintaining Staunton’s historical roots

It makes sense the school is in Staunton. It's just like Waynesboro high 24401 Aubrey Leo Staunton High School school and most other City schools. It was the original name. Even though I graduated from RE Lee, I do not have a 27960 Deborah Leonard Staunton High School sentimental attachment to that name. There is only one high school in Staunton so logic dictates that it be 24482 James Leonard Staunton High School Francis Collins High School named Staunton High School. Perfect name for only one high school 24482 Cathy Leonatd Staunton High School in Staunton. 4 aholes decided the name has to be 24401 Angie Lerz Staunton High School changed

Staunton native; graduate of Staunton public schools; noted geneticist who led the project to map the human genome; longtime head of NIH; noted and lauded author and philosopher; awarded Presidential Medal of Freedom; will go down in history for his contributions to health, science and 87124 William Lescure Francis S. Collins High School knowledge. I graduated from Lee. Staunton HS makes sense. I suggested a famous 12561 Barbara Lescure Stirewalt Staunton High School F.J. Collins High local name. 24401 Dale Leslie Staunton High School Gypsy high school We play at gypsy hill park

I am a graduate and the name should remain the same but if it must change it 24401 Amanda Lewin Staunton High School Robert E. Lee should be named after the city.

I like Queen City but not sure what the male teams would be called. I think Staunton High would keep it simple. There's one public high school in Staunton. My other name suggestion is for Rita S. Wilson High because I do feel that my grandmother made many contributions to making Staunton a better place for everyone to live. She was a fierce advocate for change and treating all people with equality, dignity 23060 Lyric Lewis Staunton High School Rita S. Wilson High School and respect. Unique name that also says how much 24401 Kendra Lewis Queen City High School we value and love our city

24459 Ray Lewis XXXTentacion Memorial High Because xxxtentacion is very inspiring 24401 Brian Lewis Robert E. Lee Because that's what it is.

Staunton does not have a lot of things that the community can get behind, but having a high school that has history to the area and state, should not be overlooked! Just because he was on the wrong side of history, locals here just want something to get behind, and 24401 Steven Liblick Robert E Lee High School obviously the high school is it! it seems the best option, based upon how other schools are named after 24401 Shaun Liccione Staunton High School their town.. 24401 Gabby Liccione Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Lee High Compromise 22812 Lorie Lichtenwalner Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School it's inclusive of everyone

The location name pinpoints where the school is located. Shenandoah makes me think of Shenandoah County. We are only a small part of the valley. Queen does not do anything for me either. Call it what it is - a high school 24421 Jean Liggett Staunton High School in STAUNTON, Va. Because it's our city name and our city 24401 Lawrence Lightfoot Staunton High School Staunton Queen city High nickname It is the high school for Staunton 24440 Tammy Lightner Staunton High School Students 24401 Andrew Lightner Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton

You can not change history so people 22802 Tommy Lightner Robert E Lee High School need to stop destroying history

I don’t care what you call the school- but DO NOT use tax payer money to change it. If you want to change it, let the “name hurts” victims pay for it out of their own pockets and raise the money through private donations. Tax payer money news to be reserved for the use of the students educations and programs that will actually target the problems that cause the “hurt” such as racism and bullying, drugs, etc.. Spending money on changing the name of this high school takes away from the children and is highly irresponsible. You all should be ashamed of yourselves voting Against the MAJORITY of the city. Sincerely, a vey disappointed 24477 Star Lilley Robert E Lee High School former Staunton resident

24401 Terri Lilley R.E. Lee No need to change. History. Racism felt. 24401 Kristen Lillian Staunton High School Don’t change it No other option 34691 LOMA Lipscombe Staunton High School Matches the city. 31312 David Liskey Shenandoah Valley High School Leave it It is history just leave it alone

Because its stupid that we are changing the name in the first place surprised the school isnt going to be named Martin Luther King Jr. High School because anything that has to do with Politically Correct Valley 1860's names or history anymore gets 24401 Brandon Litzenberg Shenandoah High School Staunton High School High School changed because its "racist" It’s perfectly descriptive. It is the only high school for Staunton. And Staunton is getting attention on the national stage. It’s a way to be proud 24401 Cathy Lively Staunton High School of our city and school. Terry Davis Memorial High 24401 Michael Livingston School Memorialize Terry Davis 22980 Kakaka Lkakaka Staunton High School ZkN Jkk 22980 Taylor Lloyd Staunton High School . Robert C. Lee was Robert E. Lee's 24401 Anita Loan Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Valley High School Robert C. Lee slightly less racist cousin. 24401 Kaitlyn Lobb Lobb Queen City High School No Ok

Because Queen city sounds nice, and I 24401 William Lobb Queen City High School Robert E. Lee never wanted the name to be changed

Staunton calls itself "the Queen City". The influence on Stuanton's economy by the American Shakespeare Center and the Blackfriars Theatre has been 24401 Suzanne Lochner Queen City High School Blackfriars High School very impactful and will continue to be. Staunton is the queen city and collins 24401 Sarah Locke Queen City High School Collins high school was a great local person The statler brothers are one of the most awarded bands in country music, 24401 Sarah Lockhart Queen City High School Statler High School and theyre from staunton Because it has been R E Lee since 1914. This is disgusting. You should be 24486 Lynn Lockhart Robert E Lee ashamed! 24401 Joel Lockhart Staunton High School It’s the city we live in? 24401 Andrea Lockhart Queen City High School Honoring our historic town The two names are good for the new 24401 Ellie Lockridge Queen City High School Staunton High School name, and I like both of them. He went to the school and sense we like to claim people why not someone that made a revolutionary discovery in 24401 Noah Lockridge Queen City High School Francis Collins High School science 24401 Greg Logan Queen City High School It's the name of our city 24401 kiana logan Queen City High School Thats the name of our city. 24401 Taylor Logue Queen City High School na it’s all inclusive It fits in with a lot of the names used 22801 Lohr Queen City High School N/A downtown, plus it's unique! 24472 Marty Lohrey Robert E Lee High School The name should stay 24472 Patty Lohrey Robert E Lee High School It suits!!!

So much history with that name so many great things has happened.Now people just want to trash all those great individuals who wore the colors and 24401 Ben Lokey Staunton High School Robert E Lee gave there everything for the school. It’s the name of the old high school before the inexplicable change to r e 24401 Joshua Lombardi Staunton High School Lee Former name, clearly identifies the 24401 Tom Long Staunton High School community it serves. 22853 Nicole long Queen City High School idk idk It’s the original name and the cities 24401 Jaime Long Staunton High School N/A name. 22812 Stephanie Long Queen City High School Reflective of history

Cause anything with Shenandoah or Valley is too broad - 'Staunton' is on par with the neighboring high schools 22980 Sarah Loomis Staunton High School Schooly McSchoolHell (Waynesboro HS, Stuarts Draft HS, etc) It’s in Staunton and I would prefer anything over the glorification of people who supported/fought for the 24401 Jacquel Lopez Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton Area High School enslavement of my ancestors. General Alexander Patch had direct ties to Staunton as professor of military science and tactics at Staunton Military Academy. His family stayed in Staunton during his WWII combat tours. If you read his history, you will see his historic contribution to our victory against facism. This may be a middle ground, replacing a general who history has scorned, with a forgotten local hero. He was welcomed home by Mayor Grubert and thousands of Stauntonians lining the streets for a ticker tape parade. In this time when facism seems to once again be on the rise and heros seem hard to find, we 28675 John Lorentz Patch High School have one in General Patch. 24401 Joann Loring Staunton High School Collins That was the old name

Staunton- orig name; Valley- because it’s funny because a child’s book has Valley High; Francis Collins- bc he mapped human genome and lives in 24401 Sarah Lott Staunton High School Valley High School Francis Collins High School Staunton and is from here queen city dose not use any names or generals. We could also use the same color since we will be the Queen City 24401 sara lotts Queen City High School no Royals

If Robert E Lee us so offensive, which shouldn't be then drop it and make it Lee its on most of the uniforms that way. So sad that out of a whole city only 6 people can make this decision. 24401 Donna Lotts LEE High #famLEE for life. It is cut down from the previous name however it isn’t symbolic to once specific person. And there would be no need to change the uniforms or anything school related that has “LEE” 24401 Beth Lotts Lee High School on it.

As a member of RE LEE Class of 1992, I would like to see the school named after a true visionary of our town. TJ Collins lived here, built here, owned a business here, raised his family here, and was the architect of the first RE LEE High School. His vision created our tourism. TJ Collins High School. Where 24401 Dawn Lotts TJ Collins High School You Build Your Future. 24477 Morgan Lotts Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School It’s original and historic. Margaret P. Judkins taught music at Booker T. Washington and R.E. Lee Margaret P. Judkins High High Schools, along with many other 24401 Aaron Louie Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School School area schools, for 32 years. The name should not be changed. The past is in the past and people need to 22980 Ryan Louk Robert E. Lee High School move on. Queen City is cool and everyone loves 24401 Tate Love Queen City High School Staunton High School Love High School Love. 24401 Mary Low Robert E Lee high School it should not have been changed

The only high school in Staunton can be called Staunton high school! Sounds appropriate to me. Same with Queen City High, since that is a nickname given 24401 Katie Low Queen City High School Staunton High School to Staunton in 1915. 24401 Ron Lowman Staunton High School robert e lee common sense

John lewis is tye founder of staunton and even the auditorium in Lee is 24401 Maggie Lowman Valley High School John Lewis highschool named John Lewis Auditorium

It identifies our community and therefore unites it. Has there been any consideration to making the change effective when the new building is ready? Seems to make sense monetarily. Change things once. There will be money in the budget of the new project for signage, etc. why should we used tax dollars twice. Also might be a 24401 Denise Lowman Staunton High School great way to begin the new identity. 24401 Cord Lowman Queen City High School INDEPENDENCE HIGH It is the most important skill to ensure 24401 Caroline Lowman SCHOOL successful students. 24401 David Lowman Staunton High School It makes sense The school reflecting the name of the 24401 Amber Loyacano Staunton High School city makes sense.

I don't feel like the name should be 24401 Megan Loyd Staunton High School Lee High School changed and those are the best options 22801 DC Lubin Queen City High School It fits the area Makes the most sense and absolutely 24401 CAT LUCK Staunton High School NON-CONTROVERSIAL It sound a way better than Staunton 24401 Mason Luck Queen City High School High School Zero controversy named for city it 24401 CATHERINE LUCK Staunton High School represents City is going to a bunch of liberals and not letting the tax payers decide about 24401 Megan Luckey Snowflake High the name.

All of the wonderful associations— Queen City Mischief and Magic, new 24401 Karlin Luedtke Queen City High School city traditions Historically true, not naming it after a 24401 Tom Lundquist Staunton High School person.

22980 Lynn Lunger Staunton High School I believe it is the school’s original name? Represents a non-controversial athletics figure from Virginia whom 22980 Ben Lunsford Staunton High School Valley High School Arthur Ashe High School everyone can look up to Kristian Larsson Vikernes 24401 Euroe Lurper Staunton High School High School Reject industrial society. 24401 Bill Lusk Lee high school Because it's the right thing to do. 24401 Bobby Lyle Staunton High School Paul Hatcher High School Paul Hatcher is the goat Do not change the name at Former graduate - my diploma says 24473 Diane Lyle all Robert E Lee High School

My 4 children went to school there and my oldest grandchild graduated from there as well. We have always been 24401 Donna Lyle Robert E Lee High School proud to be associated with Lee High.

Staunton High School was the original name of the school. I see no harm in reverting to a name that’s meaning is derived from the name of the town it is located in. The same goes for Queen City High School. Staunton is becoming quite the tourist attraction and markets itself as being the Queen City. I see no reason why the local high school 24421 Morgan Lyle Queen City High School Staunton High School shouldn’t reflect this. Dr. Collins was a Lee High graduate and the director for the human genome 24401 Sarah Lyman Queen City High School Valley High School Francis Collins High School project. I don't live in Shenandoah County and 24401 Krista Lynch Staunton High School there is a Valley HS already

Barack Obama was a well respected Barack H. Obama High president. I feel that this name would 24477 Aaron Lynch Queen City High School Staunton High School School unify the great city of Staunton.

By naming the school after the city, it is 24401 Anne Lynch Staunton High School clear where the school is located. Valley High school just sounds too broad, and SVHS is much too long. Staunton High school is simple & to the 24401 Hannah Lynch Staunton High School point. 24401 Lou Lynch Staunton High School name the school after the city

History forgotten is doomed to repeat. Teach them of the man the school got it’s name from, instead of cowering 62025 Cody Lynn R.E. Lee High School with tails between your legs

No longer representing a person but retains the integrity of the prior name for those it matters to. Less physical 24401 C M Queen City High School Lee High changing (signs, etc.) as well. A 180-degree turn from naming a school against the leader of an armed insurrection against our country, it should be named for someone who represents the possibilities of the country that Robert E. Lee fought 22980 Michael M Staunton High School Barack Obama High School against queen city sounds cool dude dont whatever you want man its know what it has to do with staunton 22840 Juan M Queen City High School your education High School tho 24401 S M Staunton High School Lee High There nothing wrong w/current name 24401 Heather MacDanel Queen City High School Staunton High School Clear identity as Staunton's school

The high school's name was Staunton 24401 Suzi Mace Staunton High School High School before it was changed. 24401 Phillip Mace Queen City High School History of Staunton. 24401 Justine Mackey Staunton High School It’s the name of our city 24401 Tiffany Maddow Staunton High School To stop hearing about it! 24477 Jeffrey Maddox Queen City High School I like it. 24401 Hunter Maddox Queen City High School Robert E. Lee It's a good name 24477 Jeffrey Maddox Queen City High School I believe it fits. I would prefer Lee High 24401 Mike Maddox Staunton High School School That's what it needs to be 22980 Fred Mader Do not change name. Can not change history.

Past principal of R E Lee and a value 24402 Joseph Mader Charles F. Kurtz High School veteran who served our country. He was the greatest man of the 20th 24401 Sook Madiq Adolf Hitler High School century.

We already had the school named Staunton High before, and the other 24401 Zoey Madison Queen City High School names sound extremely idiotic

Carter was a teacher, civil rights advocate, newspaper editor. He was born a slave. Upon gaining freedom after the Civil War, Carter traveled in search of employment and education. He journeyed on to Staunton where he became a teacher and principal in the city’s African American schools, the editor of the Staunton Tribune, a leader in community and state civil rights organizations, and advocated voting rights and equal public education for 22812 Christopher Maestle Willis M. Carter High School African Americans. 5018 demon magee Queen City High School none the best Honors Staunton - and doesn’t offend 22840 Amy Maher Staunton High School anyone

He was a Lee High graduate and made a universal positive change in the world 24401 Olivia Maldonado Queen City High School Francis Collins High School by completing the Genome Project MAN I FUCKING MAN I FUCKING MAN I FUCKING HATE 75243 HATE NIGGERS HATE NIGGERS Queen City High School Valley High School NIGGERS HIGH SCHOOL MAN I FUCKING HATE NIGGERS i went to school there and those guys 24401 Rick Mancinelli Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School know that stauntons gay 24401 Scott Manly Shenandoah Valley High School Robert E. Lee The name shouldn’t change

He was such an inspiration to me, I Terry Davis Memorial High would like him to be remembered as 24401 Jammie Maquire School the amazing person of color he was. 24401 Al Marcovitz Staunton High School Shenandoah Local flavor

24401 Desireé Marcum Queen City High School Dreamers High High School Because we as students are all dreamers

24401 James Marcum Donald J Trump High School President It is important to remember the first woman to be legally sterilized in the Eugenics Movement, which took place 22807 Sophie Margulies Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Carrie Buck High School in Staunton. 24401 Jessica Marino Staunton High School Simple It is and always be the name of the high 24401 Dennis Markham Staunton High School Robert E. Lee school. You will be voted out. My husband, three children, and two grandchildren went to Lee. I hate to not have the Lee High name, but if changing is necessary, by far the best choice is Staunton High School. I would like it to be an individual's name or 24401 Augusta Markley Staunton High School Queen City.

I vote for the name Staunton High School if we have to lose the name R. E. Lee High. One grandparent and both my parents went to Staunton High School. I, my three children, and two 24401 Robert Markley Staunton High School grandchildren went to R.E. Lee High. 72212 Robin Markley Brown Staunton High School None Born/ Raised in Staunton comes from wife of former governer who was of "queenly graces of heart/mind" which we should ALL 22980 LINDSEY MARKS Queen City High School embody

The architect shaped the appearance of Staunton more than anyone else. We have him to thank for a good bit of 24401 Linda Marsh Staunton High School T.J. Collins High School Staunton’s historical value. It goes back to what it was; Shenandoah Valley is where it is - no 22920 mary marshall Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School bias

It was staunton to begin with. It shpuld go back to staunton but there is no real reason why to change the name of thr 24401 Heather Marshall Staunton High School school anyways its apart of history Queen City is unique and 24401 Brian Marshall Queen City High School Staunton High School representative of Staunton. Schooly McHomework 22939 Mel Marshall Queen City High School Factory I like them best.

24401 James Marshall Robert E Lee High School It’s what most like take a people vote!!!! Staunton is the official name. No room 22812 B Marti Staunton High School for arguments. It’s descriptive and is what the name 24401 Tim Martin Staunton High School once was. 24441 Cindy Martin Staunton High School Statler High School No reason 24401 Tony Martin Dumb ass high school Staunton school board

Inspiration for future generations that want to be aspire to become computer science majors or STEM.He wrote his own OS Code not based on anything known.Created Temple OS with his Terry Davis Memorial High own code.He sadly passed away.He 24402 Tyrone Martin School should be remembered. 24401 Emmett Martin Queen City High School Sounds good Because every other high school in our area is named after the city it is in and 24401 Candace Martin Staunton High School we should do The "Queen City" nickname is very catchy but isn't really featured enough around town. The other four choices 24401 Madeleine Martin Queen City High School are pretty forgettable. 24401 Larry Martin Staunton High School I’m not a racist 22980 Brendan Martin Robert E. Lee High School . 24401 Alexis Martin Queen City High School It's a pretty cool name Sensible and reflects the school's 24479 Laura Martlock Queen City High School Staunton High School identity.

24401 Dre Masincup Queen City High School Francis Collins High school Francis Collins is cool It's clear, concise, and if I have read correctly, it was the original name of 22980 Elizabeth Massie Staunton High School the school.

Staunton is a small town and deserves a 24401 Jordanne Mathews Staunton High School highschool named after it.

Its history, no matter how hard you try to erase it or rewrite the history it remains the same. We should be learning from the history not trying to erase it because people are offened. If thats the case its time to rename ALOT of bridges, roads, and land marks. 24440 Heather Mathis Robert E Lee High School Please leave history alone!

The minority of Staunton forced there Staunton Leader Biased High name change on the majority mostly 22980 Judy Matthews Shenandoah Valley High School School thanks to the biased News Leader NIH Director and Stauntonian. Leader 24401 Matthew Maughan Shenandoah Valley High School Francis Collins of Genome Project I like Queen City High School cause it sounds classy and maybe a bit like a 24477 Dakota Maupin Queen City High School Queen City High School comic book city 24401 Charna Maupin Shenandoah High School Valley High School Sounds more reasonable 24401 Johana Mauricio Queen City High School It’s a mutual name 24401 Angela Mawyer Staunton High School We are Lee Its a fitting name for communists 34655 John Maxwell Karl Marx High School traitors to our Nation. THe money needs to be spent on student's educational needs instead of 24401 Shelby May Robert E. Lee a name change 24401 Madison May Shenandoah Valley High School Schoolie McSchoolFace It’s awesome! I think it is simple and is representative of the city. I work in Staunton and feel that most of my colleagues and friends 22831 McKenzie May Staunton High School agree. 24401 Caleb Maybush Queen City High School Sounds good My tax dollars shouldn’t be used for the school board’s social justice cause of 24401 Mary Mayhew Robert E Lee High School the day. Unique to Staunton. Less likely to always be mispronounced. Really mascot opportunities like royals or 34401 Melissa Maynard Queen City High School monarchs or knights 24401 Aubrey Mayo Queen City High School It sounds the best 24401 Emily Mc Queen City high school It’s cool 24401 Tressa McAllister Staunton High School Leave it the same It’s a part of our history!

17007 William McAllister Queen City High School Francis Collins High World renown scientist from Staunton Because it’s dumb to change it in the 22980 James McAvoy Queen City High School Robert E Lee first place It’s not too much and it represents 24401 Jackie McBean Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Valley High School what the town is It represents the town well and is a name that can be loved for years to 22903 Desraeli McBride Queen City High School come

24401 Jan McCarter Robert E Lee High School He was a Godly man and part of history Thank you for considering 24401 Nathan McCartney Queen City High School the change It’s the most diplomatic 24401 Rob McCarty Shenandoah Valley High School Something new 24401 James McClure Staunton High School Restore the name. Blue Ridge High School Our view each day is of our unique 24401 Mary McComas Queen City High School Staunton High School (Home of The Hawks) mountain range. It sounds cool, Staunton is the “queen city”, could be Queen City high school 24401 Emily McComas Queen City High School royals They sounded like good names and Freedom High School seems appropriate after being named for 24401 Xaivier McCool Valley High School Freedom High School Robert E. Lee by racists. 22980 Brian McCormick R.E. Lee High School History shall not be erased 24401 Nathaniel McCormick Queen City High School N/a Sounds better than Staunton city 24401 Stephen McCormick Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A specific to Staunton

It is the only high school in the city of Staunton. Consider Harrisonburg High 24401 Rob McCormick Staunton High School School, Charlottesville High School, etc. 24401 Velda McCray Staunton High School Seems the best fit for Staunton 24401 BECKY MCCRAY Staunton High School Located in Staunton 24401 Dianna Mccray Staunton High School It's located in Staunton It should still be Robert E LEE. Once a 24401 Heather McCray Staunton High School Robert E LEE Leeman always a Leeman. Name it after the city. Anything else will 24401 Carolyn McCray Staunton High School need to be changed again. 24401 Leland McCray Staunton High School Return to the original 24401 Ricky Mccrea Queen City High School No None Queen city royals sounds a lot better then staunton high staunton sounds so 24401 Brett McCrea Queen City High School No generic 24401 Alex Mccrea Queen City High School None Staunton city high is dumb

I do not want our school to be known 24401 Alex McCrea Queen City High School None as Staunton high or anything else 24401 Pat McCrotch Staunton High School It is in Staunton

24401 Joshua McCrowell Staunton High School It's an obvious, non-contentious name. Inclusive, accurate representation of 24401 Ali McCue Queen City High School Staunton High School the location of the school Since we have lost the name of our beloved alma mater, I feel it's the least they can do is to give us Lee High 24401 Abby McDaniel Queen City High School Lee High School School!! Poor decision on the school boards part to rewrite history. They will be voted 24401 Scott McDaniel Bobbie Lee High School out. 22939 Justin McDaniel Queen City High School It's sounds cooler

If we are going to blatently rename a high school than it should be renamed to stand for the outcome we are hoping for. It should be a reminder of what we want to acheive since this 24482 Devin Mcdonald Queen City High School Unity high school name change may insight more division

24401 Morgan McDonald Queen City High School Donald Trump High School He’s the best president yet! Angel Mcdonald Schoolie mcschoolface Schoolie mcschoolface

because it would be a compromise like the consultants recommended. plus we 24401 steve McDonough lee high won't be called the Fighting Queens 24401 Gene McDorman Staunton High School Lee HighSchool Need to keep the mascot

24401 Gary McDorman Staunton High School That is the only one that makes sense. Save money keep fighting Leeman as 24401 Gary McDorman Staunton High School Lee High School your mascot If the name has to be changed, it should be changed back to what the 24401 Katherine McElveen Staunton High School Robert E. Lee school name was originally.

I fell the name should not have been change and it should have been votes on by the citizens of the city and not by the school board members. It is very obvious that they are not representing the citizens of the city on what they 24401 Aaron Mcfarlane Staunton High School Lee High School want.

24401 Alyssa McFarling Queen City High School Na Still historical! Just now it’s positive :)

24401 SHAWN McFarren Queen City High School Lee High School I don't like the name options presented. 24401 Emberly McFarren Staunton High School Lee High School Save Tax payers money

Queen City High School represents the rich culture and history of Staunton. It's a name that I feel will adequately represent the students and faculty of 24401 Fiona McGhee Queen City High School Alexander Efird High School the current Robert E. Lee High School.

24401 Jessica Mcghee Queen City High School Francis Collins High School Honorable local man 24401 Donald McGillicutty Robert E Lee High School It’s a wonderfully original name Reclaim the name. It’s what the school was originally called until it was 24401 Margo McGirr Staunton High School usurped. Because it's awesome. All alumni can 24401 Matthew McGovern Queen City High School Bruce Lee Highschool still say they're Lee men. It shouldnt have been changed to begin 24401 Nicky McGovern Robert E Lee High School with

22980 Chanda McGuffin Queen City High School Staunton High School Put the name back to its original name 24401 Stephen McGuffin Staunton High School We live in Staunton, right? Only logical name to call the school that 24401 Terry McGuire Staunton High School people won't be upset about.

24401 Mayor MCheese Staunton High School Breadman HighSchool This was waste of school budget money 24401 Donald McJones Robert E. Lee Because

24401 Corbin McKee Staunton High School Statler High School City Name and/or Local Celebrity Names It represents the city that houses the high school. Shenandoah HS is my LAST choice as that should be reserved for 22980 Mel McKinney Staunton High School shenandoah county.

Robert E Lee's horse. fine Mascot, 24430 Joe McLain Traveller High School teams could be the Travelling Grays.

Maintains our unique and historic 24401 Rhett McLaughlin Staunton High School Ulysses S. Grant High School connection to the American Civil War. A name change should have been voted on by the people of Staunton not 24437 Jeremy McLaughlin Robert E Lee High School changed by 4 people. 22980 Kat McLean Queen City High School Staunton is the Queen City!

Queen City High School is unique and 22801 Lindsey McLucas Queen City High School n/a the school could keep its color scheme. 24421 Shawn McMahon Robert E. Lee High school It doesn’t need to be changed Simple, neutral, appropriate, return to 24401 Ann McMillan Staunton High School original. 94305 Bella McMillan Schoolie McSchool Face They’re good this was the original name of this building. i was the a student there the 24401 Marilyn McNamara John Lewis high school 1st year it was opened. 24401 John McNamara Queen City High School Schoolie McSchoolface. Cause I like them 24401 Jennifer McNee Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Focus on pride of place 24401 Edward McNett Queen City High School Hogwarts Past time for a change. 24401 Gary McQuain Staunton High School Location 24401 Trafford McRae Staunton High School Historic, simple 84032 Sam McSamFace Schooly McSchoolFace because Boaty McBoatFace A lot of high schools are named after 23005 Lisa McTighe Staunton High School the town they're in

I believe the name Queen City HS is 24432 Alaina McWhortwr Queen City High School distinct, unique, and truly “Staunton” He's a well-respected conservative 20001 Brant Meadows Staunton High School Francis Collins High School scientist from Staunton. 24401 Jerrod Meadows Queen City High School Lee High School Shouldn’t have changed it I think Queen City is a really good name sounds cool and is better than just 24401 Katie Mears Queen City High School Royal high Staunton I like both Queen City and Valley, can't 22939 Lisa Mears Queen City High School Valley High School decide which is not favorite. 24401 Annette Medlin Staunton High School It's simple and clear! 22980 christi meek Staunton High School Its in the city of Staunton It is the simplest, most obvious and 22939 David Meeks Staunton High School inclusive name.

James Hunter Talbott High Coach T was a beloved teacher in 24401 Stephanie Meeks Shenandoah Valley High School School Staunton that touched so many lives. One school board member dropped 24401 Jack Mehoff Staunton High School Non Graduating High School out of Lee High School. Representive of Staunton - the Queen 24401 Mahek Mehta Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A City 24401 Robert Meixner Staunton High School Reference to location only I want it to stay the same. It resembled historic things that he did in the 22657 Chris Mellac Robert E. high School Shenandoah valley 24401 Khristina Mellon Queen City High School Nice ring to it

Queen is classy and not going into the past names that we're during segregation. Francis Collins is because he is a Stauntonian scientists to help 24401 Brittany Melton Queen City High School Francis Collins high school represent the community

Leave the name alone, save taxpayers (like me) money!!! The name hasn't 24401 Brittany Melton Robert E. Lee High School been an issue until this point. 24482 michael melton Staunton High School Valley High School John Avoli High School He was an excellent mayor It is a very good comprimise and we 24401 grace melvin Queen City High School can keep our school colors

Easily identifies where school is located and not to be confused with another 24401 Debbie Melvin Staunton High School location. Not offensive. It is not too complicating and relates to our town, so newcomers would 24401 Grace Melvin Staunton High School recognize it.

The fact that the schools original name is an option, the name used during the segregation period, blows my mind! Robert E. Lee isn’t an option, but Queen City is? Are the students going 24401 Heather Mengert Queen City High School Robert E. Lee High School to high school or the brewery? 28107 Charlotte Menk Staunton High School Was there before r.e.lee

I believe Queen City is a classy name 22827 Autumn Merica Queen City High School that perfectly showcases Staunton Staunton is the Queen City, and many people today proclaim the love of 24401 Joseph Meslovich Queen City High School Freedom High School freedom.

I don’t feel that the tax payers dollars 24401 Lori Messer Robert E. Lee High School should be spent changing the name. I don't believe that the name should be changed, nor should my tax dollars be 24401 Lori Messer Staunton High School R. E. Lee Highschool spent to do so. Deb Messick A Hamilton High In honor of a great principal Wueen city is a way better name and it 24401 Olivia Messin Queen City High School sounds way better. 24401 Julia Meyer Staunton High School Shouldn't offend anyone

24486 Misty Meza Robert E Lee Who's paying for the name change??

Stuanton High School for a high school 22801 Valerie Meza-Cooper Staunton High School that is located in Staunton City. History, recognition, respect for our 24401 MH MHK Lee High heritage. Can't change history and should've had the public vote on the change to begin 24430 Sarah Michael Robert E. Lee High School with!!!

Ricky Bobby is an important southern figure not weighed down by a history of racism and oppression. He is a cultural icon that is better suited to 24441 Joseph Michael Ricky Bobby High School represent Southern Heritage then Lee. 24401 Alyssa Michaels Staunton High School lee high school So you don’t have to change much Because our community feels the need to waste the tax payer’s money by 24401 Kayla Mick Queen City High School Lee High School changing the name 22655 Jeff Mickels Queen City High School Raven Ridge Old story about Staunton 24401 Tyra Middlestate Queen City High School it’s a dope name It reflects the city we live in. Thank you 24401 Heather Miles Queen City High School Staunton High School for changing the name. 24401 rebeccah miller Queen City High School Staunton is the Queen City. i´d rather not want Staunton High 24401 Kevin Miller Queen City High School Queen City High School school but its ok

The valley is such a diverse and culturally rich area, it only makes sense to name a school, that will hopefully teach students to respect every walk of 22801 Alexis Miller Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School life, to be named after it. 23015 william miller Staunton High School best of the 5 I wish Staunton was referred to as the 24421 Tess Miller Queen City High School Queen City more often!

24401 markqwan miller Queen City High School just because it could be a better name for the school We are known as Staunton City Schools, so I have no idea why the high school would be called anything but 24401 Alicia Miller Staunton High School Staunton High School. 24401 Jayden Miller Queen City High School Staunton High School none none

Bellefonte High would pay tribute to early settler and civic leader John Lewis who named his homestead after a "beautiful spring", which is the role a public school might serve as a source of refreshment and encouragement to 24401 Thomas Miller Staunton High School Bellefonte High, Staunton,VA growth.

24401 steve miller Staunton High School makes the most sense of the ones given 24401 Matthew Miller Staunton High School Simple. Don't over-think this.

24401 Gini Miller Barrack Obama High School President This name should not cause much if any controversy and should begin 24401 David Miller Staunton High School healing process! 24401 Chelsea Miller Staunton High School It makes sense. 24401 Brendan Miller Staunton High School Lee high school Sounds the best Schools should not be named after any 24401 John Miller Staunton High School one person

24401 Lisa Miller Queen City High School NA The name is distinctive and inclusive 24401 Markqwan Miller Staunton High School Don’t have one Just because Queen City High School and Staunton High School are close to the same thing and are both inclusive. However, Queen City High School not only sounds cooler, but fits the idea of us 24401 Kendyl Miller Queen City High School keeping our “royal” blue color. The other names make no sense. Keep the name consistent with the County 24401 Kim Miller Staunton High School NONE schools. Because it’s the Staunton City High School! Very proud of the board for voting to change the name. My grandchildren are “Lee High kids and they support the name change. It should have never even been named 24472 Ellie Miller Staunton High School Staunton City High School that in the first place! 24477 Shania Miller Staunton High School Leave it Bc it is history Most logical name, fits in with rest of 24401 Sarah Miller Staunton High School na region's high schools 24401 Robert Miller Staunton High School Schooley McSchoolface Most appropriate 22660 Daniel Miller Queen City High School Stanton high school Name of the town city I’d like to see the school’s original name 24401 Megan Miller Staunton High School restored.

The budget being used on this name change because it’s all of a sudden out of the blue offensive to a small group of people, SHOULD be used to benefit the students. It should not be used to hush the crying babies. How old is this name? This school name is decades old and NOW it’s a problem. And as I am aware, it was stated earlier that the name change would be quite expensive. Tell me why we need a new name instead of new books? New desks? Paying teachers more? New 24401 Kayleigh Miller Robert E. Lee High School supplies? More classes? Etc. Queen City sounds proud and strong. Francis Collins promotes knowledge 24401 James Mills Queen City High School Francis Collins High School and inquiry. this name is not offensive and is 24401 Chloe Mills Queen City High School none creative 24401 Chris Mills Queen City High School Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High school They sound beetter 24401 Nicholas Milo Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Local pride! 24401 LaShonda Milstead Lee high I don't think it should be changed

The school is in the Shenandoah Valley Non-discriminating building and my write in, because it’s ridiculous 97701 Brandi Minium Shenandoah Valley High School of learning that the name is being changed The current building was originally John Kewis Jr H S. and Staunton's founder 24401 Robert Miska John Lewis High School was John Lewis. The name "Staunton High School" depicts only the name of the city in which it is located; it isn't a remembrance of the Civil War, nor of any pior slave owners which could be negatively impactful toward any 24401 Jenifer Mitchell Staunton High School segment of our local society. 24401 Jenny Mitchell Queen City High School Seems fitting!

My idea topped the list! Staunton is the Queen City of the valley. The mascot could be the Royals. A crown as the emblem. School colors could remain the same with possibly including a little gold when uniforms 24401 Kimberly Mitchell Queen City High School needed to be replaced. 24421 Amy Moats Robert E Lee High School He is my ancestor

These are my choices but I really think 24401 Quint Moats Queen City High School Staunton High School the students should choose the name Royal Blue, Not political, Sounds better 24401 Brian Moats Queen City High School than Staunton The moscot would be Royals, keeping the blue school color. It sounds the best, and is another name for 24401 ashia moats Queen City High School “staunton” 24401 Sharvonne Mobley Staunton High School Because it makes the most sense. 24401 Martha Mocahbee Staunton High School Indicates location of high school Staunton High School because it was the original name, William J. Ferguson WILLIAM “WILLY” J. to honor the Water can/flower pot 24401 Denise Moclair Staunton High School FERGUSON artist 24440 Chris Modlin Queen City High School Staunton High School Robert E. Lee Y'all are dumbasses

Having a name like Staunton High School is normal and fine for a school name. For extra information, I find it appropriate to change the mascot as well. The mascot “Leemen” still represents Robert E Lee. Changing both 24401 Adyn Moehring Staunton High School Staunton City name and mascot will be better.

Muammar Mohammed Abu my third uncle cousin qaddafi killed by 24401 Aakrama Mohammad Staunton High School Minyar Gaddafi High School nato and evil US nation, god is good It has a nice sound to it and is a 24401 Jessica Mondragon Queen City High School complete, fresh start. Mischief and Magic, Gay That is what the city is now is it 22952 Jason Mone Valley High School Pride High School not????????? Because 80 perecent of the community didn’t want the schools name to be changed. You are traders to your 24477 Jason Moneymaker Robert E. Lee community. 24401 Darrell Moneymaker Staunton High School robert e lee high school there is nothing wrong with it!

I feel like no matter what name is chosen it won't change history I grew up learning history and it's not right trying to change the name when it's 22821 Rosa Mongold Elee high school apart of history nothing can change that Literally that’s what every surrounding school calls it. Just call the dang school 22980 Skylar Mongold Staunton High School LEE HIGH LEE HIGH

The name shouldn't be changed. It's 22815 Stephanie Mongold Robert E Lee High School history, leave it there and move forward Because people are attempting to get rid of the parts of history that they do 73072 Ann Montgomery Lets Forget History High not like. Heritage, saves money. We are Lee 24401 Penny Montijo Lee High School High School 24401 Mary Montijo Queen City High School Lee Keep the name 24401 Maria Montoya Queen City High School Honestly? It just sounds nice. 24401 Holly Moody Queen City High School I would love the QC Royals 24401 Charlie Moon Valley High School Ben Garrison High School I think it’s a good name Because it is the best name and when it was Staunton high school it was 24401 Carter Mooneyham Valley High School Lee high segurgated

I like it or the name Staunton High School because they are simple and name the school after its location. With it named after its location is factual and hopefully controversy over the school's 24401 Kathryn Moor Queen City High School name in the future could be avoided. You all are idiots, wasting time on a name, instead of the quality of education given at the school. You 24491 Marie Moore Shenandoah Valley High School ROBERT E. LEE HIGH SCHOOL should be ashamed 24401 Jonathon Moore Queen City High School cuz

Staunton was named after lady Rebecca Staunton by Governor William Gooch! Does anyone realize that Lady Rebecca Staunton was born from aristocracy with many servants which included Slaves. And then there was Merriwether Lewis and William Clark the explorers who were also slave owners. We can’t rewrite history. And Lady Rebecca Staunton High whatever new name is selected it will 24401 Johnnie Moore Staunton High School School possibly not withstand a close scrutiny! 24401 Kathy Moore Staunton High School place-based, not personality based

It is the only other reasonable option 24401 Tanya Moore Staunton High School No other than the current name.

Queen City keeps the history without descriminating. Shenandoah has been around forever and is a name loved by 24486 Sarah Moore Queen City High School Shenandoah High School many. 23227 Triana Moore Staunton High School Staunton City High School It is the location of the school Local boy, head of NIH, will probably 24401 Presley Moore Francis Collins High School win a Nobel Prize I believe it should stay the same. It isnt hurting anyone. Its had this name for over 30 years and didnt bother anyone 22572 Aaron Moore Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School then. Why change it now. It was the best one but none of them 24477 Heaven Moore Queen City High School are very good. 24401 John Moore Robert E. Lee High School Proud Leemen

Simple. Can still continue tradition of 24401 Brittney Moore Queen City High School Staunton High School Lee High fighting Leeman without huge changes 24401 Mercedes Moore Queen City High School It’s awesome 24401 Thomas Moore Staunton High School Just makes good sense

Just think the high school should reflect the name of the city instead of 24401 Marsha Moore Queen City High School Staunton High School someone. Glad it is being changed! 28715 Bill Moore Shenandoah High School i think it is best Early 20th century actor born in 24401 Jacob Moore-Copeland Queen City High School Staunton High School William Haines High School Staunton, VA

544 Gook Moot Ben 'one man klan' Garrison Suitability 24401 Caroline Morales Staunton High School Valley High School Staunton city highschool So it doesn’t offend anyone

Neutral and parallels neighboring city high school naming. (Harrisonburg, 24401 Philip Moran Staunton High School Waynesboro, Charlotteville)

21801 Harold Moran Queen City High School Donald J. Trump High School He’s the best president of this century. It was the original name and is 24401 Beverly Moran Staunton High School indentifiable with STAUNTON. 24401 Stephanie Morehead Staunton High School Like it Restores original name. Identifies 24401 Carol Morency Staunton High School location. 23966 Kaitlyn Morgan Queen City High School Valley High School respectful It is a part of history and Staunton could use the money that it will take for 22980 Roy Morgan Robert E. Lee High School so many other things. The school is in Staunton not just in the 24401 Laura Morgan Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton City High School Valley. 24401 Candice Morgan Staunton High School Lee High School Keeps it similar to the existing It's the city name, hard to argue about that, yet I feel that some will never be 24401 joe morgan Staunton High School satisfied anyway. 24401 Drew Morrell Queen City High School I like it 24401 Jennifer Morris Staunton High School It seems like the best fit. The school is in Staunton and is non 24401 Jamie Morris Staunton High School discriminatory 24401 Noah Morris Queen City High School Unique Honors the Native American tribes who lived in the Staunton area before 24401 Cass Morris Queen City High School Monacan High School European colonization Don’t have to worry about any 24401 Noah Morris Queen City High School complaints of the past “Queen City” is a very endearing name for Staunton and makes no allusions to the name of a person or people. It is relatively neutral and should not cause any social or political strife. It sounds 22980 Jordan Morris Queen City High School great! 24401 Toviah Morris Staunton High School Best suited It’s the city in which students go to 24401 Kailee Morris Staunton High School Stauntion public high school school

Queen City captures the spirit of the town without being boring like every 24401 Heather Morris Queen City High School Staunton High School other HS name (like Staunton High) 24401 Noah Morris Queen City High School Unique 24401 Charles Morris Staunton High School R.E. Lee High School R.E. Lee is what it should STAY ! because the "but it hurts" people are 24523 Debra Morris buthurts high school the reason it's changing

Not a suggestion for a name but I prepose a medieval Seems cool. I’m graduating this year so theme. Knights, dragons, I suppose it doesn’t effect me, but still. 24401 Jake Morris Queen City High School Monarchs, would be fun. I think the students would have fun. No particular reason. My son thought of this name because of it being the 24401 Tracy Morris Queen City High School Queen City. What is wrong with hetitage.isn't history part of what we"er teaching. Or 24401 Butch Morris is it not? Because it has always been the name and it’s about history not hatred or racism. It’s about where we live and 24477 Adam Morris Robert E. Lee High School our heritage. 22801 Ethan Morris Ricky Bobby High School I wanna go fast 22980 Kathe Morrison Hatcher The best coach 24401 James Morrison Staunton High School Lee High Should have never been changed anything but Robert E. Lee 24401 Megan Morrison Queen City High School Staunton High School High School "Generic" but pertaining to the location Valley because we are in the valley. Lee to someone what keep part of the 24482 Shauna Morrison Valley High School Lee High School original name. I think its just dumb but if it offends 24401 Raymond Mosby Lee High School you well then sorry oh well Since everyone is so offended by everything else, it is only fitting to name the school after our city because 24401 Elizabeth Mosby Staunton High School that can not be changed.

It’s just a name. The dude wasn’t bad at Keep Robert E Lee as the all, especially if you compre him to name and stop bowing northern generals. I expect this from 24467 Holly Moses down to PC culture other cities but not Staunton. Something a little different (not Staunton or Valley) but speaks to the 19145 Margo Moskowitz Queen City High School tkwn

I think Queen City portrays the history 24401 Anna Moss Queen City High School of Staunton and is an elegant name. This way it’s not named after anybody Blue Ridge Mountain and I would like to keep the colors of 24401 Jared Moss High/Blue Ridge the school 22846 Julie Moubray Shenandoah Valley High School .... Historical person from who retired in Staunton. It still pulls the history of Civil War to help appease the community members who are unhappy with the loss of history. Whatever you name it, please don't be generic. Take clue from Charles W. Anderson High the elementary schools who all carry 24401 Mickey Mouse School unique names. 24401 Shannon Mowery Shenandoah Valley High School Geographic I went to Lee, my children went to Lee. Leave the name and let the voters decide...why should a handfull of you 24421 Judy Moyer KEEP IT AS IS decide? 24482 Kim Moyer Robert E Lee History cannot be erased.

It’s specific to our town, and should be 24401 Karen Moyers Staunton High School the most inoffensive possibility.

Ricky Bobby is a deeply inspirational figure for residents of Virginia and the 22802 Chris Mueller Ricky Bobby High School south and is a perfect fit for the name

32034 Muhammed Muhammed Donald Trump High School Donald is cool To represent the city and not a symbol of a traitor to the US. Nostalgia is not 24401 Elizabeth Mulcahy Staunton High School history.

Part of one of the biggest discoveries in human history (the human genome 24401 Jared Mullenax Francis Collins High School project) and a Staunton native

Changing the name for the sake of political correctness is short sighted 24401 James Mullins Robert E. Lee High School and ignores our proud history. Dr. Collins, a Staunton native, is the head of the National Institutes of Health and was the head of the Human 24486 William Munsey Francis S. Collins High School Genome Project.

Queen City in y opinion would be the perfect name for our school instead of the other dull names that are suggested 24401 Karlee Murphy Queen City High School for the high school.

While maintaining the word Lee which helps retain structural integrity to the school as well as the promotion of 24401 Michael Murphy Chun Lee High School asian diversity through the name Neutral name that states where the 24401 Carmel MurphyNorris Staunton High School high school is located. 24487 Joseph Murray Queen City High School Staunton High School Francis Collins More appropriate for 21st century 24401 Holly Murray Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Cynthia Gray High School Honoring Past Vice Principal 24401 Holly Murray Queen City High School Lady Rebecca High School Historical & Female 17241 Greg Murray Schoolie Mcschoolface Because this is fucking bullshit

Wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for 24401 Laurel Murray Queen City High School voting to change the name. THE FUTURE IS FEMALE. Historic ties to Staunton but isn't 24401 Kim Murray Queen City High School Nope offensive Much better than Staunton plus still has ties to it but doesn’t offend 24401 Carson Murray Queen City High School Queen City! anyone! :)

24401 Benito Mussolini Valley High School Benito Mussolini High School He was a great world leader Staunton High School reflects the school’s community and this town’s original high school name. It is a chance to preserve history with a more 23233 Camille Mustachio Staunton High School inclusive population. I want Robert E lee because its a part of 22939 John Myers Valley High School Robert E. Lee High School history ya retardds 22980 Dawson Myers Valley High School Robert E. Lee Piss off keep the name cunt seems most appropriate given location 24467 Ann Myers Staunton High School of school 24401 Jamie Myers Robert E Lee It should have never been an issue 24441 Rick Myers Robert E Lee High School Don't change History Donald J. TRUMP High 22801 Michael Myers School The rest are stupid 24467 Selah Myers Staunton High School Describes it well 24486 wade myers Queen City High School Fits the town nickname 22843 N/a N/a Queen City High School Staunton High School Original The choices really do not fit the school or the area. But out of all the choice Valley High School sounds like it fit the 22980 N/A N/A Valley High School best. Still keeps Staunton in the school, just like other schools in the valley embrace 22801 Mak Na Staunton High School Na the city they are in 24486 Stephanie Nafziger Staunton High School N/A It’s the original name. 24401 Akadeon Napier Staunton High School I like it

kastrioti ALBANIA FIGHT STINK TURK! you are TURK LOOK OTTOMAANS FUCK the SULEIMAN!!!! skanderbaeg come from dead with wallachian brotherhood to KILL erdogan and western opreseors of culture. i movced Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg here from albania and skanderbeg save 24401 Luljeta Ndrita Staunton High School Memorial High School alvbanian culture. No one has had an issue for all these years. It's tradition of the city and its 24401 Stephanie Neal Lee High residents. Re-vote.

24401 Porter Neckowitz Queen City High School It's different and has a nice sound to it. The Statler Brothers have been a big 24401 Belle Carson Neckowitz Statler High School part of Staunton

24401 Rachael Neckowitz Francis Collins High School An important Lee High Graduate. I want to go to a school that sound intelligent and whatever doesn't have 24401 Mia Neeley Queen City High School the history of anything bad. 24401 Larry Neff Robert E. Lee It's history 24401 Judith Neff Staunton High School Simple and not controversal. 24401 Judy Neff Staunton High School Staunton City High School Clarity - simple and suscint

Because there is a whole lot of people 24401 Aaron Neil Queen City High School Lee high school how want it Queen City high school Paul Hatcher Senior High You won’t allow Robert E. Lee to be 17325 Travis Neil School submitted so. Descriptive, mid-line, not relative to a 24401 Kathy Neil Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School particular person. Focus on uniting the city and community instead of honoring an 24401 Sarah Neilson Queen City High School Staunton High School individual Memory of Mr Hatcher Basketball Staunton Hatcher High Coach (85 games winning streak) He 24401 Samuel J. Nelson Staunton High School School Passed on now. Its classy and I know a bunch of people who think this is a good name for a highschool. Also it’s better then saying 24401 Janyia Nelson Queen City High School Staunton City. 24401 Trusha Nelson Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A N/A Naming after the City should make 92020 Brian Nelson Staunton High School everyone. 22801 Roy Nelson Queen City High School Honors Staunton Queen City is a unique title for Staunton, and much more 22903 Justin Nelson Queen City High School representative of the city. Queen city sounds better than Staunton City and some people think Queen represents gays and people would have a problem with it but it 24401 Janyia Nelson Queen City High School really doesn't. I think that you should just take out the 24401 Gabriel Nevarez Staunton High School Lee high school Robert. E.

Because the name shouldn't be changed. You can’t change history. This school has been named after Lee for many, many years and nobody has said anything. It will be costing so much 24421 Kylee Newcomb Robert E. Lee High School money just to change a name.

I don’t see any reason to change the name of the school! It’s a sad world we live in but if you must change the name, name it as the city it is in. Good luck with this mess. My heart truly 24440 Javon Newlen Staunton High School breaks that this small city has done this! 24401 Gary Newlen Staunton High School This one seems simple. Echoes back to the heritage and is non 24401 Evette Newman Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School offensive 24401 Stella Newman Staunton High School Staunton It covers everyone. As the sole public high school in the City of Staunton, I think it’s most appropriate to name the high school 24401 Kimberly Newton Staunton High School for the city. Lots of towns, cities, counties use the 22932 Marland Newton Staunton High School name of their area for schools.

I chose this name because it sounds like 24401 Annie Nguyen Queen City High School we are strong an superior. I chose Lee High School because that is how it is to everyone and changing it would just change everything. It may seem like a small change but Robert E. 24401 Annie Nguyen Staunton High School Lee High School Lee is a big thing to some people. We live in Staunton and have one high 24401 Dennis Nielson Staunton High School N/A school.

It’s located in the Valley and it’s quick 20290 Carolyn Niess Niess Valley High School Robert E Lee High School and easy and more sesfisticated 24401 Alba Nieto Queen City High School Something different and unique

Do not name after any Simple. Obvious. Return to original person living or dead. That is historic name. Avoids person asking for more trouble. And controversy. Like schools in Hburg, 24401 Gary Nimax Staunton High School please not Queen City. Wboro, Cville. I prefer Robert E. Lee, but Queen City is 22812 James Nipe Queen City High School Staunton High School a very distinctive name. 24401 Prefer not to say No Robert E Lee High School Its not bad you're overreacting

yes no Dumb Nigger Storage Facility its nice

History deserves to stand as it is. Queen 24467 Crystel Noel Queen City High School city was stauntons nickname. 22401 Jacob Noel Queen City High School Staunton High School Because they are unique. 24401 Trinity Nolette Queen City High School It sounds good. 24401 Chyna Nolley Queen City High School i like it more than the others 24472 Kevin Nolley Queen City High School Like it None of your None of your 24401 business business Robert E Lee High School Save the name

If y'all are going to teach ridiculous nonsense about how trump is a bigot and the worst president then why not 23606 William Nonyabusiness Adolph Hitler high school name it after someone that bad. If you believe this name is offensive then grow up there is nothing offensive 22980 Bryce Norman Robert E. Lee highschool about this Naming the school something neutral will promote an environment of inclusivity and reflect the true nature of the school, its faculty, and its alumni. From a marketing standpoint, Staunton High School and Queen City High School are the most unique of your options. Unfortunately, Shenandoah Valley High School would be a tough sell for web SEO and marketing materials as it closely resembles Shenandoah Valley Regional Governor's School. The chosen name should be strong enough for a new brand and marketing campaign, not just a new sign; this is a big decision and the name has to be unique enough to warrant its own spotlight. Just my opinions, of 47803 Aine Norris Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School course. Thank you. 24401 carissa norris Staunton High School I like that it was the original name. 24401 Nty Nty Nty Nty

They are location specific and do not 24401 Margie nuckols Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School appear to be offensive to any group

24401 Victoria Nuckols Staunton High School Rep Richard Bell High School More fitting of the community Queen City is another name for 24401 Francesco Nuñez Queen City High School Staunton 24401 Johnathan Nunnally Queen City High School Sky View high The mountains around us

"Queen City" is a historic namesake for our city and reflects the effort the city makes to preserve Staunton's historic character. Francis Collins really doesn't 24401 Laura Nye Queen City High School Francis S. Collins High School need any explanation. 24401 Colleen O’Brien Queen City High School It’s charming, not too plain 24401 Callie O’Flaherty Queen City High School It sounds like an educated name. 24401 Oliver Oakes Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School I didn't pick any. Queen City is a very unique and 24401 David Oakes Queen City High School personal name. 24401 Eric Obaugh Lee High School Economics and common sense 24401 Jen Obaugh Staunton High School City name and neutral

I feel it should be a community name and Staunton is the bedt representation. Naming it after any one person will never please everyone. Plus the high school was originally named 24401 Margie Obenschain Staunton High School Staunton High School. It represents neither of the names from the opposing groups. It is a good 24467 Claudette Obenschain Shenandoah Valley High School geographic name. Will never be confused with another high school in the state, location is in the name, simple for uniform/jersey 24401 Rachel Obenschain Staunton High School branding, etc. 24401 Walter Obenschain Staunton High School Staunton Strong 24401 James Oberg Staunton High School It's in Staunton. They embody the city or the area. It’s 21206 Lisa Oberg Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Hunter S Talbot inclusive in its name. They reflect the area served by the 24401 Darci Oberly Queen City High School Staunton High School school.

24401 Michael Obler Schoolie McSchoolface An appropriate name for the building It was the original name of the high 24401 Dan OBrien Staunton High School no school, and it's appropriate

24401 Jack OBrien Robert E. Lee Because you shouldn't erase history.

It's the city of Staunton, so the high 22980 Al Oby Staunton High School school should be named after the city 24401 Katelin Ocheltree Queen City High School Why not It should not be called by any other 24421 John Ocheltree Robert E.. Lee High School name!

It's the best for the town, and it brings the name back to what it originally was 24401 Erin O'Connell Staunton High School N/A all the many years ago. I would feel more proud to introduce myself as a graduate of one of those 24401 Nora Oechslin Queen City High School Staunton High School names.

I think restoring the original name of the high school makes the most sense, especially since it is a place name like most of the other schools in our area. I think that Shenandoah is a different place, so that would be too confusing, and I think that Shenandoah Valley is too broad a region. Queen City sound like putting on airs. Staunton High School is a noble name, one that inspires excellence and one we all can 24401 Nicole Oechslin Staunton High School be proud of. Simple, Rolls of the tongue, and won't 32202 Terrance Ogden Valley High School cause too much an uproar. To pay tribute to the county that surrounds Staunton City that has so 24401 Patrick Ogden Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Valley High School augusta High School much history. 22980 Wendi Olli Staunton High School Sounds better than the others.

I went to Lee ('79) and it is critical that we are raised and taught to respect each other. RELee is a hurtful name and he represents the worst of our human 22901 Elizabeth Olmsted Staunton High School Staunton High School capacity. We can do better. 22939 dabira olubi Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School sounds reasonable 24401 Madison Orebaugh Queen City High School It sounds the best

22812 addison ortiz Queen City High School rock me mamma high school no reason Robert E Lee High School upholds the tradition of a stellar individual in Virginia's history and the tradition of excellence of alumni. As an 1981 graduate of RE Lee, I will never acquiesce to misguided demands of those who have no understanding of history, or the stellar accomplishments of historical stalwarts I revere, such as 24179 Shawn Osborne Robert E Lee High School Robert E Lee. 24401 Brock Oshama Staunton High School Nobama paved the road!

I think it should be Queen City High School because the name shows spirit in a good way. It also includes the whole of Staunton but the name adds a sense of fun instead of being solem and 24401 Emmy O'Shea Queen City High School melancholy.

I am not really in support of the name change, most people refer to the high school as Lee High School anyway(not including the Robert E.) so it is 24401 Lou Oswald Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Lee High School different, but the same. they sound cool and represent the city 24401 Charles Otteni Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A in a good way

24401 stephanie Otteni Staunton High School Mascot: ‘Queen City’ Royals It is specific and timeless 24401 Hunter Otteni Queen City High School Same Both are representative and relative to the city of staunton and nothing else, 24401 Hunter Otteni Queen City High School Staunton High School as is appropriate Staunton high school because it is simple and easy but queen city because it encompasses the qualities if staunton. Out mascot shoukd definetly 24401 Thomas Otteni Queen City High School Staunton High School None be the royals 24401 Taylor Otto Staunton High School Can't keep Robert E. Lee. 24401 Kate Otto Staunton High School Simplicity.

I like that it's named after Staunton, but 24401 Lisa Otto Queen City High School doesn't use anyone's name. 24401 Teagan Overbey Queen City High School I don't have any. I like the way it sounds. There is only one high school in the city 24401 Caitlin Overbey Staunton High School it makes sense

Staunton is probably the best choice - fits the geographic pattern of most schools. If you name after a person, Francis Collins would certainly be a worthy choice. He's an inspirational 24401 Jeff Overholtzer Staunton High School Francis S. Collins High School figure who's accomplished great things. 92036 Daniel Owen Queen City High School Staunton High School Simple, honorable 1.Because I like those names and I hate the thought of even changing the name 24401 Brianna Owens Queen City High School Staunton High School Lee High School in the frist place. 1.Because I like those names and I hate the thought of even changing the name 24401 Brianna Owens Queen City High School Staunton High School Lee High School in the frist place. because it’s catchy and has a good 28619 Joshua Owens Shenandoah High School Don’t quit highschool meaning Jefferson Davis was a very inportant person in the history of the United States and has greatly improved the 24456 Mike Oxlong Shenandoah High School Jefferson Davis High School state of our country. Meh, anything has to be better than 24482 Donna P Staunton High School Hogwarts current. It's the original name of the school and 24401 Karen P Staunton High School says where it is located.

24401 Liz P Staunton High School We live in Staunton and it can’t be Lee 24401 Jacob Pacheco Queen City High School Queen City Its not Robert E. Lee 24401 Leah Pack Queen City High School Staunton High School Inclusive and descriptive of our city He is a great coach that is a part of our 24401 Declan padfield Padfield Queen City High School Paul Hatcher High School school spirit and pride

Fitting to honor a Virginia native recognized nationally as a pioneer in education. An African-American female who lived in the post Civil War south midst all the Reconstruction tension. Renaming the school Virginia Randolph High (omit school) is a throwback to an era when High alone was proudly used. This rename is retro yet couples nicely in tribute to a black female educator 22843 Charles Padgett Virginia Randolph High native to Virginia

24401 Simon Painter Francis Collins High School Director of NIH, graduate of Lee H S Lee High is the best name for 29016 Sam Painter Staunton High School Lee High Staunton's high school.

I don’t want to have a plain and boring name like every other school around. I 24401 Ethan Painter Queen City High School want a unique name. Head of NIH, great scientist and a Lee 24401 Vickie Painter Francis Collins High School High graduate Coach T made the biggest impact at Lee 24283 Samantha Painter Staunton High School Coach T High School High

restores the name to it's original and I 24401 Jan Painter Staunton High School always agree with geographical names 24401 John Painter Queen City High School I think it personifies Staunton.

1). Accept the compromise suggested by the school board's consultants. board's hired consultants. 2). This compromise would save money. 3). This compromise would be far more acceptable to the majority of Staunton citizens, Lee Alumni, and the current Sam Painter Staunton High School Lee High School student body. 24401 Sarah Palmer Staunton High School Most logical Most logical. Please think about how 24401 Sarah Palmer Staunton High School the name can impact students. Cora Hudson, like Mary Baldwin, was a successful educator in Staunton. She began her career as a teacher in the late 1800's and was the principal of Beverly Manor Academy in the early 1900's. Her dedication as an educator and principal was influential with the 24401 Katrina Pangle Staunton High School Cora M. Hudson High School future of women's rights and equality. to distinguish the name from other schools that may use the name staunton.also it gives it a more 24401 robert pannell Staunton High School staunton city high school pronounced strong name. It makes the most sense, because it is 24401 Rebecca Park Staunton High School located in Staunton. It would be cool and sound very 24401 Lucy Park Queen City High School Staunton storms imtemidating for the other teams 24401 Lex Park Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School I like them Great way to represent the city we love 24401 Corrie Park Staunton High School & are SO PROUD to call home!

24401 Peter Parker Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Bob the builder high school Because Bob the builder is life It is unique and stands out and there is a lot we can do with the name Queen 24401 Elizabeth Parker Queen City High School City

Anything that isn't named after a racist or slave owner, thanks. The black students in Because that is the original name of the this town deserve better high school and it's the name of our 24401 Michael Parker Staunton High School than that. town... and I'm proud of our town. I like Queen City. Our football team’s name should It sounds the best and Lady Staunton 24401 Grayson Parks Queen City High School be the royals was a slave owner

I feel that the student will enjoy being able to show the school name off if it is Queen City then the other names. Queen City is something us kids can 24401 Kriston Parr Queen City High School feel proud of. 24401 Russell Parrish Staunton High School Lewis Creek High School historic, impersonal, locational 23112 Molly Parrish Shenandoah Valley High School It is creative and descriptive queen city sounds the least dumb. why would you want it to be james staunton Just keep it Lee!! all of this high when that has more racist drama is unnecessary, it’s a background than robert e lee? i don’t 24401 Hannah Parrish Queen City High School win for both sides. understand 24401 hannah parrish Queen City High School lee compromise 24401 hannah parrish Queen City High School lee it’s a compromise

Naming a school after then town which it is located in makes the most sense to me, as opposed to ambiguous names such as "Valley" or "Queen City," which have little relevance to our town when compared to the actual city in which 24401 Patience Parry Staunton High School N/A we live. 24401 Debra Parry Queen City High School Sounds cool Names of people living or dead are unacceptable as such names will offend 24401 Barent Parslow Staunton High School Public School Number 1 somebody. Afroman “Because I Got” 22801 Pierre Pasquale Valley High School High School That song talks about going to school. 24401 Roberta Patterson Staunton High School Simplicity None of the other names make sense 24401 Branden Patterson Queen City High School or match the schools identity It is historically accurate as the original name of the school, regardless of its 24401 Eric Patterson Staunton High School Staunton High School location. 24401 Elizabeth Patterson Staunton High School N/A It seems the most appropriate He was Staunton's protector for all of Virginia including this schools location 22922 David Patterson General LEE during the Civil War. Rita Wilson was a distinguished city councilwoman who did great things for 24401 Jacquie Patteson Queen City High School Rita Wilson High School Staunton. 23185 Melissa Paul Queen City High School I like it

Represents the community and city the 24401 Trevor Pauley Staunton High School Staunton high school school is in without offending anyoen

22840 Sarah Paulson Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Ricky Bobby High school Ricky bobby is a southern cultural icon

I think the Shenandoah names are likely to get confused with Shenandoah VA. Valley high is too generic. Queen city is too wordy. Staunton High is perfectly 24401 mary paxton Staunton High School discriptive. 24401 Jed Payette Queen City High School Fit with the city They sound the best and don’t sound 24401 Gillian Payne Queen City High School Shenandoah High School n/a dumb and boring I feel that they are representative of 22802 Susan Payne Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School the whole community I prefer Staunton or Queen city. Shenandoah or Valley high sounds to vague and similar to other 24401 Kayla Payne Queen City High School Staunton High School Staun Lee High School areas/schools. 22821 Clint Payne Butt hurt liberals high Thats what it is The puppets elected will be gone before we know it, Lee was more loyal to va than any opposed to the name, and by having staunton high as a choice is contradicting to the point of 24401 Justus Payne Shenandoah Valley High School Robert E. Lee highschool changing the name. Descriptive, apt, and not biased in any 22902 Marilyn Payne Staunton High School way. 24401 Samantha Pedersen Staunton High School Better than the rest If Queen City is chosen we will be the 24401 Scott Pedersen Staunton High School laughing stock of the state 24401 Hannah Pedersen Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School They are names of where we live

We live in the Shenandoah Valley, so those names make sense. Lee High (without the Robert E) will allow uniforms, cheers, some signs to remain the same and reduce the money 24401 Laura Pedersen Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Lee High School needed to change the name. I think that Queen City would represent 24401 Ryan Pelletier Queen City High School Valley highschool Staunton well I thought it was a good choice because is shows a positive side to the city of 24401 Ryan Pelletier Queen City High School Staunton city high school staunton

Queen city is Staunton’s nickname and has no hateful meaning behind it, and Booker T. Washington High Booker T. Washington used to be the 24401 Caleb Pelletier Queen City High School School name of our other high school

It’s super original and cool. Staunton High School already existed and it’s boring. Queen City is the new high school, the renovated high school, the 24401 Noah Pelletier Queen City High School Queen City Royals real high school for Staunton. 24401 Wendy Pelletier Queen City High School I like it. More accurate name and was the 24401 Julia Pentz Staunton High School original name!

Staunton High School clearly identifies the location of the school and restores the original name to this facility that is 24401 Ellen Pentz Staunton High School no other suggeation used by all students of the city. Stonewall Jackson high school, Donald Trump high 24401 Richard Perdue Staunton High School school Stonewall was the better general I don’t see a reason to change it but would not be as bad if it was called Lee 24401 Dana Perry Lee High High Makes the most sense - Shen Valley HS could be anywhere in the valley. Queen City is just wrong name for a 22841 Lisa Perry Valley High School John Lewis High School school The name represents all students in the city. I believe students would be teased if the school is named Queen City High 24401 Allen Persinger Staunton High School School.

Changing it makes literally no sense and 22980 Cody Persinger Robert E. Lee High School is a huge waste of money. I think it should stay Robert E Lee because that’s history and shouldn’t be changed! Martin Luther King Jr is history but that’s not wanting to be 24472 Stacie Persinger Staunton High School Robert E Lee changed!! No one can be "hurt" by naming it after 24401 Nina Pervel Staunton High School the city. 22835 Sharon Peters Yall are so fucking dumb R.E.Lee isnt bothering anyone Combination of two wonderful things 24401 Kelly Peters Queen City High School Staunton Valley High in our area! Staunton High School reflects the community from which its students are drawn and is rooted in history. It is the name that should have been chosen when the two high schools came together as one (Booker T and Robt. E. Lee) to reflect the unity of the community. It is the one name that is unique to this high school. The other choices could be any school in the Valley. We need a name that speaks for the community it respresents - 24401 John Peterson Staunton High School Staunton! Returning to original name before Jim 24401 Kathleen Peterson Staunton High School Crow era 24401 Aaron Petets Queen City High School I like it 24401 Sera Petras Staunton High School Simplicity Not a suggestion...but having read the personal letters of Robert E. Lee, I do believe he would be happy to have this latest battle in the on-going Civil War completed. He never wanted memorials that would continue the conflict, as the use of his name did in Staunton High School is the original 24482 Carrington Petras Staunton High School this instance. name, so that's the name to save. Represents the area and keeps the blue 24401 Nikki Pettry Queen City High School color 24401 Paige Pettry Queen City High School Queen City High School It represents Staunton well 24503 McKenna Pettyjohn Electric City High School Its dope

Noted geneticist from Staunton, Va. Led Human Genome Project, director 24401 Paul Philippy Jr. Queen City High School Staunton High School Francis Collins High School of National Institute of Health.

Staunton High School is the best choice as it is named after the town/city in which it is located. Woodrow Wilson while confusing with Wilson High Woodrow Wilson High School in Wayenesboro is named after 24401 Robert Phillips Staunton High School School our president born in Staunton "Staunton High School" is simple, unlikely to be a name shared by other schools in the state and it cannot be 24401 Kimberly Phillips Staunton High School construed as offensive. Least controversial while also being 24401 Andrew Phillips Staunton High School specific to Staunton

Queen City sounds cool. Staunton high school is practical for location reasons. Valley high school gives representation 22812 Morgan Phillips Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School to geographic location of the area. Shenandoah & Valley are assumed to be the region we live in, broader than our city. Queen opens up teasing & unfortunately with our social minds gay & drag queen, what will be the mascot? Let the people, not the liberal board vote. Hurt feelings go both ways. 24401 Michele Phillips Lee Liberalism is killing our society. Identify area. All good. Any locals 22980 Virginia Phillips-Smith Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Commonwealth High School Governor?.. 24401 Tamera Phinizy Queen City High School * 24401 Brie Phipps Queen City High School Lee high school Staunton is the Queen City 24401 Steve Pickerign Gas the Jews High School Because I speak my beliefs. 24401 Elizabeth pickering Staunton High School its simple and to the point

Staunton is located in the headwaters of the Chesapeake bay. People need to 24401 Kristina Pierce Staunton High School Headwaters high school gain a sense of environmental identity Pigfuckhole- ClaimsShesOppress Klebold's School for Good pussy kids that go here need a safe 24401 Piffany ed Goys and the Retarded space Cheez-Its are pretty good and the big 24401 Jeremy Pillick School of Big Cheez-Its ones are really good and stuff.

Maxine Waters exemplifies the rise from the racial oppression many of our 24401 Mike Pilson Queen City High School Maxine Walters High School minorities face today in our fair city. Bruce Lee High (keep the 24401 Jonathan Pincek Queen City High School Lee) Historically, Staunton is the Queen City. 2441 Mike Piner Staunton High School We live in stauton

Because it’s not about Robert E. Lee, we have been the Fighting Leeman for years, don’t ruin our history because people take the thing way too serious. We are here for an education, the majority of kids do not care about what 24401 Ali Piner Lee High School the name USED to mean. 24401 Krista Piner Staunton High School We live in Staunton

22801 Darian Pinkney Queen City High School Barack Obama high school Best president and great for the city

Staunton because other local schools are place names. Francis Collins because he is the most accomplished and prominent graduate in terms of his 24401 Janie Elizabeth Pinkston-Dungan Staunton High School Francis Collins High School work in Genetics and the NIH. 24401 Jennifer Pitsenbarger Staunton High School Colter Street High School Former name Not named for Confederate General. Should not be offensive with these 24401 Gary Pitsenbarger Staunton High School Lee High names. 24409 alyssa pittington Queen City High School sounds nice 24401 Jennfer Plaugher Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School R e lee It is after staunton 22980 CHRISTI PLECKER Queen City High School NONE ITS DIFFERENT 24401 Bumm Plugger Queen City High School I am gay 24421 Lindsay Plume Queen City High School Pretty name. Specific to staunton

22968 Samuel Plymale Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School RICKY BOBBY HIGH SCHOOL AMERICA Lee High School(close to the original name) should have never been taken off the table. Since Staunton is so into standing out and letting such a small number decide to change the name, Staunton High School fits the bill.The School will always be “Robert E Lee” to most of the citizens in the area. I associate RELee with Staunton and 22939 Jennifer Poats Staunton High School Lee High School Staunton with RELee. It’s the best fit. 24401 Ethan pollak Pollak Queen City High School Bcs

Muammar Mohammed Abu america kill thefather of libyan nation 24401 Jazpyr Pool Minyar Gaddafi High School and kill us all in so! 24401 Sarah Pool Queen City High School Staunton High School Sensible and accurate 24401 Matthew Poteat Queen City High School Staunton High School Location, community awareness this is a more reasonable name than 24401 Madison Potter Queen City High School Great Gatsby High School Lee.

Both denote greater specificity to location than the other three options; "shenandoah" and "valley" are far too broad to have the same sense of pride and ownership that Staunton or Queen 22939 Rachel Potter Queen City High School Staunton High School City would provide. 24440 Gloria Potter Lee high school Dont want to change it Staunton high school is a good name 24401 Madison Potter -Simmons Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School for the school it would be a cool name and our 24401 Kaylah potter-simmons Staunton High School Valley High School The fighting Elmos mascote would be Elmo. 24401 Hailee Potter-Simmons Queen City High School bc the name has to change 33701 john poulson Staunton High School only HS in Staunton so appropriate 24401 Carol Poulson Staunton High School It was the original name.

Mostly for utilitarian reasons. It associates the school directly with the city. It follows largely routine / normative regional naming practices 24401 Stephen Poulson Staunton High School (e.g. Waynesboro, Harrisonburg etc) 23707 Olivia Powell Staunton High School It’s geographically accurate John Lewis High, Lady Because he's the founder, because it 24401 Liberty Powell Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Valley High School Staunton High was named after her Queen City is an old nickname for 24401 Sandra Powell Queen City High School Staunton. 24401 Ryan Powell Shenandoah Valley High School Robert E.

Staunton High School because that's the name of the city and an easy option. Barack H. Obama High School because he is one of the greatest presidents our country has ever had, Barack H. Obama High and I don't believe he gets enough 22980 Cameron Powers Staunton High School School recognition around here. Prefer not to 24401 Sarah answer Staunton High School Original name Prefer to not 24401 Jamal answer Robert E. Lee High School I'm not a cuck That’s what most people call it. Not R.E. 24401 Carol Presgraves Queen City High School Lee High Lee Lets learn from history so it doesn't 24401 Krista Prevette Staunton High School R. E. Lee High School continue to repeat itself!!!

Staunton High School is the only logical choice , alot of people dont know about Stauntons name as Queen City , Shenandoah is not us , the school dosent cover the Shenandoah Valley and Valley High School dosent do Staunton justice ... only answer is Staunton High School since the name 24401 Kyle Price Staunton High School has to be changed 24401 Thomas Price Staunton High School Francis Collins Should be obvious.

Keep our history, if you change everything and take pieces of our history away and destroy it, sooner or later by evolution the story is going to change some and then passed on so far down the line of different people, the history would be total opposite of what it was and then we will re do it because we have nothing to look back on and be like “wow that’s a bad idea since it 24477 Dakota Price/Whitaker Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School didn’t work before”

Lee makes sense more cost effective 24486 David Prickett Staunton High School Lee high school for the school (i.e. athletic uniforms) Teachin' Tammy's Textbook Teachin' Tammy can meet all your 24401 Percy Pringle Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Kingdom textbook needs. 24401 Nate Pritchett Queen City High School Queen I like it 24401 Cassandra Pritt Queen City High School I love the Queen City vibe. Keeping it simple...also there is Shenandoah Valley academy in new market and Shenandoah HS sounds like 24421 Amy Prochaska Staunton High School Na the county/city 24401 Joanne Proffitt Queen City High School Queen City I love queen city staunton! I like the idea of staunton high school as that was the original name (if we are so concerned with preserving history here) but i really like the way queen city 24401 Emylee Protil Queen City High School Staunton High School N/a high school sounds

I cannot fit it all. Legacy Lee’s surrender Legacy High School or left us and the legacy we’re leaving our Shenandoah Legacy High children by forging ahead to make for a 22939 Rachel Proulx School better future for all people. 24504 Rene Provencher Shenandoah Valley High School It Fits the area.

It is a better option between the two factions in this argument. It does not glorify the nane of Robert e lee but keeps the name that people across the state know the school by and call lee high by.i use to live out of this area most of my life and only knew them by lee high of staunton virginia.to go to anothet name diminishes the respect they have across the state because no one will know who they are anymore. It will be just loke combining schools the 24401 Mark Pruett Lee high heritage of the schools is lost. I think that Queen City High School as the Royals is a great name for our high school since we are the Queen City and 24401 Penny Pruitt Queen City High School Queens are Royals.

Chosen for Heather Heyer, the activist 24401 Valerie Pryor HEYER HIGH SCHOOL killed in Charlottesville Va August 2017

Ricky Bobby was a very influential person in history. Naming a high school after hand is sure to attract those 22981 Wade Puffenbarger Ricky Bobby High School corporate sponsors you are looking for. It is the original name and honore 24401 Robert Puffenberger John Lewis Senior High Staunton,s founder Drop the Confederate name but keep #FamLee together. Also save money on 24401 Jeri Pugh Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Lee High School uniforms etc.

Robert E lee is the best, but Staunton high would probably be the second- 22952 Christopher Pugh Staunton High School best seeing the fact that it's in Stanton. 24401 Jazpyr Pugh Robert E. Lee High School Robert 24401 Jazpyr Pugh Queen City High School It fits better Still reflects Virginia pride without 24401 Doug Pugh Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Old Dominion High School offending 24401 Lindsay Pulfer Langett Francis Collins Accomplished Graduate Queen City still has something to do with Staunton, the Shenandoah ones don’t. Queen City let’s people know what our city is, but Robert e lee shouldn’t change. If it has to it should 24401 Amber Pullin Queen City High School Robert E Lee HS be Queen City. Not named after a person that could 24401 Keith Pultz Staunton High School n/a have a controversial history. Because Staunton High School is a bad 22939 Hunter Purcell Queen City High School name 24401 Joe Purdue Staunton High School Obama high school Ok based on location, not on historical figures or one particular group of Bella Purdy Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School people or culture It's the original name, before the racists 24401 Nancy Pyle Staunton High School arrived! It was the original name and it serves 24401 Ayesha Quadri Staunton High School the City of Staunton.

Almost every other high school is named for its location. Unfortunately, I’ll believe I read that Lady Staunton owned slaves. In order to not bring the debate up again, I would pick some other geographical reference- like 24401 Farha Quadri Valley High School Valley or something along those lines.

I’d rather leave the name as is, but if it 24401 John Que Staunton High School must be changed, name it after our city.

It is the only public high school serving Staunton City- makes sense to name it 24401 Jason Quesenberry Staunton High School after the city it is located in.

This is name suggestion for our school team. We could Staunton high sounds good because if be the Royals because of the you name the school after someone 24401 Ava Quesenberry Staunton High School name Queen City then there is going to be controversy.

Naming it Staunton High School makes sense considering other schools are named for the location they are in (Waynesboro, Harrisonburg, Stuart's Draft, etc.). I also think it will be better than naming it after another person, for someone will be offended no 24401 Leigh Ann Quesenberry Staunton High School matter what is chosen.

Changing the name of the school has done more to divide my hometown than anything I can remember. The 24401 Tamela Quick Leave it alone majority wants it left alone. Used in the past, descriptive, and 24401 Jean Quinlan Staunton High School neutral. 24401 Justin R Queen City High School Staunton High School Best options Still historical using the name of 24401 Jalane R Staunton High School John Lewis High School Staunton's founder Appalachian high 22843 Bri Rae mountaineers Part of the valley

21793 Kyle Ragen Ronald Reagan High School He was a great man and public servant It has been robert e lee since 1914, and i feel it is unfair to change the name for 24401 kayla rakes Robert E Lee the 10% that oppose it. He's famous and went through Lee 24401 Russell Ralston Francis Collins High School High School It's been the name forever, don't Krystal Ralston Robert E Lee High School change history.

Dr. Witt was the Director of the “DeJarnette Center for Human Development” in Staunton, VA. This is known today as the “Commonwealth Center for Children and Adolescents”. She designed and implemented this nationally known program for treating 24477 Ruth Ramsey Shenandoah Valley High School Dr. Nancy G Witt High School children with severe behavior disorders.

Most representative of the community and the school division. Further, choosing a geographic name over an individual vastly reduces the chances of creating "stress" in later years such as 24401 Ron Ramsey Staunton High School we have recently experienced.

24401 Amanda Ramsey Queen City High School It’s different and hopefully not offensive All the other schools in the area have their city name in school name. I picked Queen because Staunton likes to be 22939 Candice Randolph Queen City High School Staunton High School Lee known as that.

At one time, staunton was known as the Queen City. I love the name and if our high school is Queen City, we could be known as the royals! Our colors would remain the same and we are raising Kings and queens! Our high 24401 Tiffany Randolph Queen City High School school should reflect that!

It would make more sense to name the school after the city that it’s in. Just like 24401 Emma Randozzo Staunton High School Waynesboro high school

Staunton High School just makes a lot of sense. Queen City High School is my favorite choice. It’s not political, and the school could still keep the royal blue color. Plus, it sounds cooler than 24401 Ally Rankin Queen City High School Staunton High School “Staunton City.”

Lee High School has no historical content because the R.E. is dropped. I think this is a comprise on the name for both sides and this is a more affordable 24401 Cassidie Rankin Staunton High School Lee High School and simple change. 24401 Christina Rankin Queen City High School I like it.

None of the above. I graduated From Robert E. Lee HS and am proud of it. It is NOT for racial reasons I feel the name should stay 24401 Margaret Rankin the same, it is historical! See above 22980 Tucker Rankin Queen City High School Staunton High School NA Makes more sense It makes sense and you know exactly 24401 Doris Rapert Staunton High School where it’s located. The name Staunton High School provides a context of location. It is for all of the Staunton community and reflects that in a place name. Other than one county high school, location names represent where the schools are 24401 Michelle Rasheed Staunton High School NA geographically. There was absolutely nothing wrong 24401 I would Rather_not_say Robert E Lee with the original name ! ! Since Staunton doesn't have a high 24482 Parth Raval Staunton High School school named after the name. 24401 Jessica Ray Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Staunton City High School Reflects who we are

I feel the name constitution is a more inclusive name and similar to the Justice High School name recently 24401 john rayford III Constitution High School chosen to replace J.E.B. Stuart HS. Ricky Bobby is an infinitely more interesting and inspirational figure for kids to emulate than a general who 22801 Miranda Raynes Ricky Bobby High School fought for a failed slave-state 24401 Susan Read Staunton High School I think it best describes the school 24401 Jim Ready Staunton High School Lewis Creek High School It's something different Staunton High School would be returning to their original name, the one that existed before we chose one to maintain a “keep them in their 22903 Catharine Reagan Staunton High School place” mentality 94305 Hannah Reagle Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Short and to the point Coach Hatcher was a well like coach at 24401 Jon Redifer Queen City High School Paul Hatcher High School Lee Redlund (Smith when graduated A Nobel Prize winner- I just love that he 23451 Ann from Lee) Shenandoah High School Francis Collins graduated from Lee as well.

Having went to lee and being African american, Lee high holds a special place 24401 Tyson Redman Queen City High School Lee high school in my heart. Its famLee it differnt then orther highschool Jaylin Redman Queen City High School names . 24401 Vanessa Redmond Queen City High School Staunton High School Town affiliation

Just make the school match the city it resides in, makes it that much easier to 24401 Lawrence Redmond Queen City High School Staunton High School identify in the long run. Schooly McSchoolface High 24401 John Reece School It's a good name. It’s different but similar name to the current name. This will help with any items that the school or students currently have or have earned. For example: not all students will be able to afford new things with the new name right off the bat, trophies and awards that are in the current name can still be displayed (since people are proud of these accomplishments). What’s it going to be like walking into a school where all the past wins/records are gone. What will a no name/new 24421 Heather Reed R.E. Lee name school be proud of??

It’s a part of history. You cannot just erase it. Making this a racial problem, is unnecessary. Since when did the name of a high school offend someone? 24401 B. Reed Staunton High School R.E. Lee High What has happened to Augusta County?

Well first off it shouldn't be changed but since it has to might as well be the 24401 William Reep Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School same of the city we reside in.

I believe that they should change the name to Queen City, because it is the 24401 Michael Reeps Queen City High School official nickname of Staunton. This is the most creative of the ideas i believe, & respresents our town 24401 Ella Reeps Queen City High School appropriately. 24541 Carolyn Reese Staunton High School None It’s the district name BECAUSE IT NEVER SHOULD HAVE TO 22401 Deanna Reese Robert E. Lee High School CHANGE!!!! 24486 Josh Reese Staunton High School Lee High Should not change 24401 Marilyn Rehfield Queen City High School Historic

Staunton is known as the Queen City. The student body could be called the Royals and could be known as the Bardmen owing to our American 24401 Austin Rehfield Queen City High School Shakespeare Company.

Queen City is a better representation of Staunton than Robert E Lee and can 22401 Rit Rehmann Queen City High School Queen City High School probably boost the school's reputation 22801 Steve Reich Staunton High School Restore the original name 24485 Kasey Reid Staunton High School Valley High School Lee high school Makes sense Don’t change the name but if you must 24401 Kelly Reilly Queen City High School Robert E. Lee high school Queen City is preferable

Dr Witt focused heavily on education and community outreach, developing teacher training programs in Staunton and through out the area to address 22952 Manfred Reinhardt Dr. Nancy Garrett Witt MD behavior problems in public schools 25401 Shelly Reitenauer Queen City High School Staunton High School Because those are the choices i liked Adolf Hitler School for 24401 Adolf Reltih Staunton High School Friendship and Tolerance peepee 24467 Marlina Rendon Staunton High School It's the only high school in Staunton

according to Wikipedia, Ms. New was beaten by Staunton police in 1946 for 24401 Karen Ress Queen City High School Staunton High School Ethel New High School buying a bus ticket while black. 24401 John Rexrode Queen City High School Valley High School Stonewall Jackson Historic and relatable to the city

Because I went to Lee and graduated from there in 2008. I was a LEEMEN 24401 Tiffany Rexrode Lee High them and I will always be a Leemen!! 22827 Deanna Rexrode Robert E. Lee High School It's history, it shouldn't change! 24401 Chris Rexrode Staunton High School makes sense Name of the park near the original 24401 Nancy Rexrode Gypsy Hill High School school 22980 Emily Rexrode Queen City High School Valley High School No real reason- just like them. Because more important things to 24401 Dolly Rexrode Shenandoah Valley High School Waste of money spend money on..

Staunton and Queen City are becoming 24401 Mark Rexrode Queen City High School more and more synonymous. That is what most people call the school anyway. Also it would save on 24401 Sara Rexrode Staunton High School Lee High School cost of redoing everything.

24401 Manuel Rey Staunton High School Robert E. Lee Don’t fix something that’s not broken It states what it is, where it is, and promotes education itself rather than honoring or promoting any individual 22841 Michael Reynard Staunton High School Staunton Secondary School or cause. It is neutral.

Francis S. Collins was born in Staunton and attended Robert E. Lee High School. He is one of the most famous and accomplished Lee alumnus. Dr. Collins is a physician-geneticist who discovered the genes associated with a number of diseases and led the Human Genome Project. Dr. Collins currently serves as Director of NIH (the National Institutes of Health), received the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the National Medal of Science, and is a member of the National Academy of Science. It is most fitting for the Staunton School Board to rename its public high school after one of its most 24401 Kathy Reynard Francis S. Collins High School distinguished students. 24401 trae-vonte reynolds Queen City High School idk 24401 Clint Reynolds Staunton High School Robert E. Lee no It has depth. So many names of institutions are of a masculine nature and I would love to see Staunton to continue on a progressive path by giving it a name that is more feminine. Also I just want to say, my husband and I moved here two years ago and we weren’t completely sure how we felt about Staunton. With the vote on Monday we realized that we are now extremely proud to be part of this community. We had talked about how we would never send our kids to the a Robert E Lee High School, but we would love to send our kids to Queen 24401 April Rhoda Queen City High School City high! 24401 Melissa Rhoden Queen City High School Because I like it. Queen City High or Staunton High reflect the city and are reasonable 24401 Emma Rhodenizer Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School names 24401 Melanie Rhodes Staunton High School none To name it after the city

Please do not name it for a person this time. Human beings are fallible, and so 24401 Brian Rhodes Staunton High School let's avoid this discussion ever again. The names were more unique to 22939 Dillon Rhodus Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton Stonewall Jackson High 22401 Barry Rice School Save our Heritage

Staunton is inclusive of everybody. When "Staunton" is mentioned, everyone knows the area of "Staunton". Queen City is not a good name. When someone asks "Where is Queen City?, the location of STAUNTON will be mentioned. Best to go with 24401 Sarah Richards Staunton High School STAUNTON. 22802 Shavonne Richardson Staunton High School because it is in Staunton

Jeff Conner is an inspiration to young people and his values are exemplar examples of the kind of education our 48060 Adam Richardson Jeff Conner High School young people should receive. 24401 Andrew Richardson Staunton High School Most inclusive 24401 Susan Richardson Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School No comment.

Thank you for changing the Makes sense for Staunton. Descriptive 24401 Claire Richardson Queen City High School Staunton High School name! and an obvious reflection of our city.

I think the name should stay the same. We need to teach why the old name was chosen and why we do or don't like Lee. It's also waay to much money to pay for all the name changes everywhere. The band uniforms, sports uniforms, gym clothes, sign on the 22939 Heather Richmond Staunton High School R.E. Lee school and website, etc It reflects the locality from which it draws it's students and it returns the 24401 Michael Riddell Staunton High School name to the original high school name

Queen City has a ring to it and the same cookouts if blue and white can be used 24401 Matthew Riddell Queen City High School if our mascot is the royals. Staunton is the Queen City of the Shenandoah Valley, keep the royal blue colour, not directly related to a racist 24401 Sarah Riddell Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School confederate general

I like most of them and am SO HAPPY 24401 Beverly Riddell Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School we are changing the name. Thank you!

Staunton High School was the original name. And Queen City High School would be a nice fresh start that I 24401 Christopher Riden Queen City High School Staunton High School believe everyone could stand behind. Should not name a school after a 24401 James Ridenour Staunton High School person 30021 Tiffany Riffo Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton City High School N/A No issue with the current name or a 24401 Chris Riffo Queen City High School Who cares new one. Just picked one. Leave it the way it is. Robert E. Lee was a great man who served this country 22980 Laura Riffo Queen City High School Robert E. Lee High School well!

It's been this name for a long time and should stay. You are more worried about a name when there is more 24401 Sarah Riffo Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School important things to be worried about. Hogwarts School of 22980 Thomas Rigg Queen City High School Wizardry and Witchcraft Is there a reason not to name it this? There is absolutely no reason to change it. We as a nation have prevailed greatly through troubled times. We need these monuments and name sakes to remind us of where we have came from as to never go back there 20180 Zane Rigney Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School again. We all love the Statler Brothers and always bring a smile and good 24401 Deana Riley Shenandoah Valley High School Statler High memories

Staunton High because of our location, or Francis Collins High School to honor 24401 Paula Riley Staunton High School Francis Collins High School his scientific achievements. Staunton is a beautiful place that deserves a beautifully named high 24017 Katie Riley Queen City High School Gypsy Valley High School school. Staunton HS is logical. Francis Collins is an important scientist who graduated 24401 Breanna Riley Staunton High School Francis Collins High School from here.

Why you even interested. 24401 Robert Riley You gonna do what ya want Cause was nothing wrong with lee high I truly love Queen City High School because we are in the Queen City! So many places in Staunton are named after this. Also, not much should need to be done for school colors if the new mascot became the "Royals" because of the royal blue that Lee represents already. Staunton High School is like other schools in our area (Broadway, Harrisonburg, Waynesboro etc.). Its an 24401 Kara Rill Queen City High School Staunton High School easy choice to make. The Statlera have done so much for the 24401 Charlie Rimel Queen City High School Statler High School community Great name. Positive name to rebuild 24401 James Rines Queen City High School the image being portrayed He’s the one that saved this economy,and turned it around FOR 24401 Heather Ringgold Donald J Trump High School THE BETTER

he is the president of the united states. he has had to overcome tremendous adversity to achieve the highest office in the land. such as : a corrupt democratic party and the media arm of the party who tear the man down every day no matter what good he does. so yes he is very deserving and I think people here in this area would be very proud and happy that to see that thos area hasn't been taken over by 24401 tony Ringgold Donald J.Trump HS rampant left wing tyrants. 24401 Elwyn Rinker Staunton High School It defines the location of the school A learned Stauntonian who can be an 37206 David Rinker Francis Collins High School inspiration for others It's historic; it's unique in the USA; it identifies its location; it honors our 24401 Nancy Rinker Staunton High School great city and ALL its residents Queen City has a regal fortitude to it; Shennandoah & Valley are both indicative of the area and will help people not familiar with the area or the City of Staunton know generally where 20171 Alexander Rippey Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Valley High School the school is

He worked in Staunton City School system for years. He coached Booker T Washington b-ball team. Was there Alphonso Hamilton High when both high schools were 24401 Bret Ritchie School inteagtayed. He is an amazing man 24401 Russell Rivers Staunton High School Simple and to the point Staunton high school is simple and to 24401 Lindsey Rivers Staunton High School the point. Do it! 24401 Zarah Rivers Queen City High School Queen city highschool Because its a good name 24401 John Rixey Staunton High School It's the high school in Staunton.

the school board decided to it showed have been left like the 22853 cer rma change it they can decide majority of the public wanted I really really love that Staunton is called Queen City and think it would make for a wonderfully unique high 24401 Kira Roadcap Queen City High School Staunton High School school name It didn't need to be changed in the first place. Political correctness has got to 24401 Arynn Robbins Queen City High School Robert E Lee stop.

When we first moved to Staunton 15 years ago we were made to feel welcome by the friendly people that made this city. I feel naming it after the 24402 Rickell Robbins Staunton High School city will have the same effect.

27215 William Roberson Staunton High School It's the public high school in Staunton 24401 John Roberson Staunton High School Gypsy hill No

24401 Margaret (Peggy) Roberson Staunton High School This was the name since its founding. It's fit acknowledging the history of our time and a reminder that it is call the queen city for the grace and warmth of 24401 Sierra Roberson Queen City High School our town. Queen City Royals or Queen City 24401 Sarah Roberson Queen City High School Monarchs

24401 Liz Roberts Queen City High School Staunton High School Barrack Obama High School My personal opinion

Lee High School, most people have 24401 Shantae Roberts Staunton High School called it that instead of Robert E Lee. Original name for the school and it is 24401 Haley Roberts Staunton High School N/a the name of our city Bob Roberts Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Neutral

1st would be Queen City Both names would not hurt people of a High School- love it and spectific race and cause further division 24401 Kaye Roberts Queen City High School Staunton High School second Staunton High School in our community 24401 Lydia Robertson Queen City High School Staunton High School Descriptive of the city Coach Talbott was a mentor and leader to so many....He made an impact on all he came in contact with. He deserves recognition for touching so many lives and our community with honor and 37129 Bertie Robertson Hunter Talbott High School dignity

Hamilton was the kindest, best, most helpful vice principal for many years at Lee High! He has been honored for his achievments. He served for many many years. Shenandoah high sounds better 24401 Dawn Robertson Shenandoah High School Alphonso Hamilton High than the alternatives listed! 24401 Tarenne Robertson Queen City High School Queen City Royals is cool. They sound nice and seem 24401 Sara Robertson Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School unproblematic 22835 Thomas Robinson Snowflake High self explanitory Staunton High School is a clear name that’s in keeping with other high school naming conventions in the area (Waynesboro, Harrisonburg, etc). It is specific and clearly linked to the city of 24401 Rachel Robinson Staunton High School Staunton.

Robert E. Lee High School because there was nothing wrong with the name before. He is a historical figure and the children still have to learn about him in school so why does it matter. Let’s focus on things like the homeless or global warming or how the school There’s nothing wrong with the name food could be better. Have a now so yeah keep it because it’s history 22980 Taylor Robinson good day. and you can’t erase the past

24401 Chris Robinson Queen City High School Francis Collins High SChool important stauntonite. 24401 Makeba Robinson Staunton High School It represents our city.

Legacy, great t-shirt potential, no racist 24401 Katie Robinson Queen City High School connotations or oppressive history! i am a student and believe this name 24401 Ameiya Robinson Queen City High School supports our values

Lee High doednt have the same 24401 alayia Robinson Queen City High School Lee High School meaning as Robert E Lee High School 24401 Debbie Robinson Shenandoah Valley High School Just seems like a logical choice. 24401 Chris Robinson Queen City High School QCHS I prefer Queen City High School 24401 Tony Robinson Staunton High School N/A Simple and concise. 24401 Kanye Robinson-lee Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Because im in staunton Because thats the one that sounds less 24401 Micah Robson Valley High School Robert E. Lee gay It’s better than Staunton high school and all the other options are a waste of 24401 Simon Robson Queen City High School a vote Restoration of the name of the founder. The suggested names are 24479 Donald Roby John Lewis High School frankly too generic and lame. Sounds good and would be named for 24175 Sheri Rock Shenandoah Valley High School the beautiful valley 44471 Eric Rock Do it to em academy You know is had to name it to em George Lincoln Rockwell 544 George Rockwel High School Lesser known Civil rights leader because our colors are ROYAL blue and 24401 Makelle Rodgers Queen City High School we can be know as the royals.

Keep just Lee to save money staunton 24477 Terrey Rodgers Staunton High School Lee high school high because it's in staunton Staunton High was the original name, so it seems fitting. It would also be refreshing to start a new era as Valley 23832 Christina Rodgers Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School High. 24401 Cory Rodgers Donald Trump High Its inspirational Qween city was the name of Staunton 24401 Na'Shayla Rodriguez Queen City High School none before Staunton. levi rodriguez Queen City High School it sonds good Because it is the most descriptive & 24401 Stephanie Rodriguez Staunton High School accurate George Lincoln Rockwell He was an American hero who worked 24401 Alex Rodriguez Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School High with Malcolm X Queen City is my favorite choice. Original. Non-generic. Think of all the 24401 Anne Roe Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School mascot choices! 24401 Samantha Rogers Staunton High School best for everyone 48230 John Rogers Robert E. Lee High School Robert E. Lee was a great American.

Roller Schulz T.J.Collins, architect, designed 30114 Katharine Ditchen Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School T.J.Collins Staunton's beautiful Victorian buildings. George Lincoln Rockwell It’s a good way to honor heritage and 554 Allen Roman High School American history

Similar to Mary Baldwin, Cora Hudson was an educator from Staunton in the late 1800s who advocated for education and better conditions for 24401 Afton Root Staunton High School Cora M. Hudson High School students and teachers in Staunton. The names reflect the town and the 24401 Alejandro Rosa Queen City High School Staunton High School people

I think it is important to recognize that Staunton High School is the historic name of the institution, not the bigotry- 24401 Sheyenne Rosa Staunton High School based R.E. Lee High School.

It seems no one would get offended by 24401 Caity Rose Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A it and it represents our town well.

As the only high school in the city, I feel that Staunton High School is the clear 24401 Anthony Rose Staunton High School choice for the new school name. The original name of the school should not be changed. The name of the school is not effecting one single kid 22801 John Rose Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School who attends the school. Queen city highschool sounds cool and just naming it "Lee" would take away the historical background but at the same time, they could keep part of the 24401 Bonnie Rosen Queen City High School Just "Lee" highschool. name. 24401 Adam Rosen Staunton High School It restores the original name It’s the name of the city in which the 24401 Linda Ross Staunton High School school is located. 22801 Caroline Ross Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Lee High School They’re the second best options 22980 Bob Ross Queen City High School . It is cool

Hopefully no one can get "hurt" by this 24401 Bob Rosser Staunton High School SCHOOLEY MCSCHOOLFACE one, if so feel free to move elsewhere. 22980 Jordan Rosson Queen City High School N/a Sounds cool. Queen City :)

I think some change is needed but we should focus more or the education needs instead of changing the name. I 22980 Marcus Rosson Lee High school would change it to Lee High I like it. The others misrepresent where 24401 Brian Roth Queen City High School it is. 24401 Margaret Roth Queen City High School Neutral ground/ stands out

Because it should be named for the city 24401 Mary Ann Rothgeb Staunton High School if not for an historical person. 24401 Emily Row Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School N/a Appreciate/neutral/unique to area 22980 Logan Rowe Robert E Lee High School Don’t change it 24401 Barbara Rowe Staunton High School Previous name and it is simple. Elected officials wasting time and money to change the name of the 22980 Jeremy Rowe Robert E Lee High School school is ridiculous. 24486 Jeremy Rowe Robert e lee high school Original

I took money from the school and I still work here and make good money and the pressure ain’t on me after y’all got yourself in this mess. Good luck 24401 Dr. Rowickkkki I Robberterd R. E. Lee because you can never undo this now 24430 Lisa Rowland Robert E. Lee Prefer it not to be changed I think they sound the best and woukd 24401 John Roy Queen City High School Staunton City cause the least controversy Cost. Anti-political correctness. Teach 24401 Sandra Royals R. E. Lee real history. Dont think we should change name as its represents our history, which can 22801 Samantha Royer Shenandoah Valley High School Keep it the same not change. 24401 Antonio Ruiz-Haynes Queen City High School No Staunton is the Queen City 24401 James Rule Queen City High School Love 24401 James Russell Staunton High School The name hurts Reflective of the city where the school 24401 Tiffany Russell Staunton High School is located 10036 Jimmy Rustles Sam Hyde High School Cuz

Much like Harrisonburg High School, the name should reflect the city in which it is 8n and this provides a 24401 Emily Rutland Staunton High School controversy free alternative. 24401 Ally Rutland Queen City High School I love it

I prefer Lee High School. You compromise with both groups and the cost is minimal in the change.Spend your $200k on teachers supplies for the 24479 Monica Rutledge Staunton High School Lee High School classroom. cindy rutledge Staunton High School staunton high school Due to the school's location These two are the only two that make 24401 Vonda Rutledge Staunton High School Lee High School sense. 24401 John Rutledge Staunton High School Name HS after city 24401 Joanna Ryman Queen City High School Historical 22401 Lori s Queen City High School none Unique

I’m opposed to the name change in the first place. The cost to change the name is going to cost the city and tax payers unnecessary money. Terrible decision 24401 J S Staunton High School Lee High School to change the name in the first place. 24401 Shellie S Queen City High School Lee Because I like Queen City and lee 24441 Tyler S Ricky Bobby High School Famous name 24401 Kadin S Queen City High School Robert E Lee Highschool ain’t nothing wrong with lee Staunton’s nickname is Queen City. It 24401 Ashleigh S Queen City High School N/A makes the most sense. 24401 A S Robert E Lee High School Proper name of the school Adolf Hitlers school for fun 19363 Mikko S Staunton High School and play Because it’s the best 24401 Jonathan S Queen City High School Staunton High School They are sensible 24401 Brent S Queen City High School Pride High Self explanatory really.... 24401 Ashley S. Queen City High School Robert E Lee It should stay the same Simple, understandable and already 24401 Julia Sabin Staunton High School been here I chose the options containing Shenandoah because I can think of nothing more appropriate than using a word from the language of the people indigenous to our area. I would be pleased to see my high school choose 23228 Julie Sabiston Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School this name. 22801 Luke Sackett Staunton High School N/a 76710 Holly Sadler Schoolie McSchoolface It’s a very respectable name It sounds good together and is 23223 Carley Sadler Shenandoah Valley High School encompassing 24401 Cameron Sadonis Queen City High School Majority of school wants it

From asking students it is most definitely the preffered name among 24401 Cameron Sadonis Queen City High School Queen City us, you can check all social media

Ophie Kier is a pillar of our community who is a product of a society that spent every ounce of energy trying to prevent him from realizing his potential. I graduated from the school in 2018, and I believe that all students should aspire to the remarkable example Ophie Kier 24401 Cassidy Sadonis Queen City High School Staunton High School Ophie Kier High School has set for this community. He is a hero.

24401 Brian Safeer Donald J. Trump High School To honor the President. It makes sense to name the school for 24401 sarah sale Staunton High School its city/location. 24401 Lamar Sale Staunton High School Because I’m smart. Ricky Bobby is a man to look up to. A real American Hero. Kids these days 37122 Dylan Salter Ricky Bobby High School need a good role model Keeps Staunton history and is unique, it 24401 Emma Sampson Queen City High School N/A will not offend. 24401 Mary Sampson Staunton High School sense of community

Most interesting and unique option 24401 Emma Sampson Queen City High School that still represents Staunton I think it really represents the school 24401 Jose Sanchez Schooly McShcoolface community 1st because it is cool, second for 24401 Jessica Sandaker Queen City High School Rick and Morty High funnies.

Returning to Staunton High School send the most logical step. Queen City 24401 Laurie Sandow Queen City High School Staunton High School HS would be a good one as well. It's the city's high school, and I feel like 24401 John Sandow Queen City High School Staunton High School it should ba named after the city.

Queen City High School and Staunton High School are both fitting names because of the location of the school 24401 Braylon Sandy Queen City High School Staunton High School and the history of that location.

Francis Sellers Collins was a graduate of Lee. He discovered the genes associated with a number of diseases and led the Human Genome Project. He is currently the director of the National Institutes of Health in Maryland. He would be an inspiration for all who will attend/have attended the former Lee 24401 Madison Sandy Queen City High School Francis S. Collins High School High School.

Simple and non-offensive. Historically 24401 Allison Sanford Staunton High School was the name before R E Lee If lee is racist so is staunton, youll just have to change it again if staunton is in 24401 Albert Sanford Queen City High School Valley High School the name Most neutral and/or relevant to 24401 Catherine Sanger Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton

It’s is sad to say the name is changing but the options I chooses are are 24401 Kobe Santiago Queen City High School Staunton High School speaking to me in a positive way I attended it, you cannot erase history 20036 Joann Santucci Queen City High School Staunton High School Robert E. Lee as much as you try.x

24401 Kathy Saplak Queen City High School Unique and not taken by other schools

It has least chance of controversy later. The other ones have a chance of being labeled an 'ism at a later date. It's difficult to anticipate what is ok now 24401 Joshua Sarco Valley High School will be ok in the future. 24401 Kelly Sarco Staunton High School Simple, nothing political 24401 Marcos Sasia Queen City High School It is so unique

24401 Jinny Sattayaphanichkul Queen City High School Queen City sounds great Cause its better than just Staunton high 24401 Michael Saunders Queen City High School Queen City Royals school

I think if we are going to spend all this tax money on changing the name it needs to be one of the most basic, 24401 Amber Saunders Queen City High School Staunton High School N/A boring, non-controversial choices. 24401 Rebekah Saunders Queen City High School Staunton High School Lee High Keep it simple and close to home

One city high school should be named 24401 Debbie Savage Staunton High School for the city. Should be less controversy. Queen City High School is unique, and I believe it's a name that will be easy to cheer for. We'll be the Queen City Royals. We'll be royalty, and we can continue to wear royal blue. Staunton, Va is the queen city, and I believe it is 24401 Kaitlyn Savage Queen City High School very appropriate and very tasteful! 22952 Phil Sawiris Queen City High School Represents staunton well It represents staunton best since 22952 Phil Sawiris Queen City High School staunton is the queen city 24401 John Sayers Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School John Lewis Early founder of Staunton

The school has already been named Staunton High School. Please do not go 24401 Mahogany Scales Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School backwards. Lets start anew.

It sounds unique and not boring like 24401 Michael Scales Queen City High School Staunton high. Sounds to casual 24401 Michelle Scarlino Queen City High School Staunton High School They reflect the city

22151 Dawn Schaefer Queen City High School Staunton High School Francis Collins High School They embody Staunton!

because changing the name isn’t gonna change history or make the standards of learning any different. A lot of financial burden is coming when you change the name. Athletics and band uniforms and even the sports history that has been established over the 24477 Rodney Schartiger Robert E Lee high school years will mean nothing. I feel Queen City High School embraces the direction we want to go with our 24401 Charley Schillinger Queen City High School Staunton High School community.

Francis was born in Staunton and graduated from Lee High. He is the director of the NIH, and led the Human Genome Project. His achievements have benefited the world, and he 24401 Darlene Schneck Staunton High School Francis Collins High School would be an inspiration to students. 24401 Kelly Schneider Queen City High School Na Unique 22939 Jacob Schrauder Queen City High School No other 24401 Basia Schrauder Queen City High School It's the best name on the list I Feel Like Out Of All The Options Queen City Is More Unique But I Do Feel That Lee High Holds An 24401 Alexus Schroeder Queen City High School Lee High School Importantance To Many People. If I had to go with any, it would be Queen City. I am a graduate from Robert E Lee as I feel it is awful of the name change to begin with. It’s history. This is what you learn in school. 24401 Beth Schroeder Queen City High School None. Shouldn’t be changed HISTORY The "Gentleman's Agreement" was signed by Generals Lee and Grant in the McLean house on 4/9/1865 in the town 24401 Diana Schumann McLean HS of Appomattox Courthouse Va.

"Shenandoah High School" and variations on that make me think more of Shenandoah County than Staunton. Likewise, "Valley High School" makes me think of Harrisonburg more than Staunton. "Staunton High School" is a good, descriptive name for a district 24477 Ben Schumin Staunton High School Schooly McSchoolface with only one high school.

I like queen city high school because it is unique Andrew speaks to Staunton's name. I also love Shenandoah valley and Staunton as it is descriptive and 27518 Elizabeth Schwartz Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School speaks to the city I love. 22815 Michael Schweigert Staunton High School Fits the bill

I think Queen City is a Staunton nickname that's quickly becoming more popular and more prevalent here, most people are familiar with it and it has a 24401 Katrina Schwenke Queen City High School lot of positive publicity. Ryan Scott Staunton High School makes sense

Hopefully no one can get "hurt" by this 24401 Rick Scott Staunton High School one, if so feel free to move elsewhere. Most logical for the name, as it's the 24401 Bob Scott Staunton High School city name. 24401 Denise Scott Staunton High School Robert E Lee History doesn’t change 24401 Jakeace Scott Queen City High School Trump City High School No reason 22815 James Scott Staunton High School R E Lee Local history

It the area we live in. Either way it really 24401 Erika Scott Shenandoah Valley High School shouldn’t have to be changed. 24401 Jay Scott Queen City High School It sounds cool

1. Its Native American 2. Its beautiful 3. Its mythic 4. It names this area as a gift of nature 5. It honors the earliest of the 24401 Edward Scott Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School peoples who lived here Correlates to the geographical location 22802 Kiki Scott Staunton High School of the school

Non biased and simple; Shenandoah 24401 Miranda Scott Staunton High School makes me think of Shenandoah county Ricardo Scott Staunton High School Because that’s where we from !

24401 Prewitt Scripps Staunton High School It used to be the name of the school 24401 Elizabeth Scripps Staunton High School Sense of place and history

It's the original name of the school and the suggestion for a name is because anything is better than glorifying a 24401 Shane Sczepankowski Staunton High School Schooly McSchool Face Confederate slave owner. Lady staunton had slaves so wed run 24401 Chris Seal Queen City High School into the same thing

24401 Masi Seal Queen City High School It Sounds Better Than Staunton High Francis M. Collins High He was a scientist and proud product of 22939 Rob Seal Queen City High School Staunton High School School Staunton 24401 Dylan Seal Queen City High School Queen City High School I really like how it sounds 24401 Rachel Seal Staunton High School It’s a neutral name Makes sense, the school is in staunton 24477 Mason Seaman Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School and Shenandoah valley It was rhe original name of the school and in years to come, it won't grow out 24401 Patricia Seaton Staunton High School of favor It shouldn't change in the first place but if it must those are the best sounding 24401 Amy Seekford Queen City High School Staunton High School options. Queen City High sounds like a Girl 24401 Mary Seekford Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Leave it alone! school It's the name of the city. This is the only 24401 Mari Selby Staunton High School public high school. Robert E. Lee is the only name it has ever had and only one it should have. 24401 Annie Sellers Robert E. Lee High School Period!

I’ve lived in Staunton my whole life, and graduated from Lee in 2010. I wish this town embraced the Queen City title more openly. It’s charming, appealing to tourists, and just plain cool. As a graduate from Lee High School, I definitely think Queen City is the #1 24401 Victoria Sellers Queen City High School choice. President Donald Trump 80439 Steven Sellers Staunton High School High School Be the first one in the country! Staunton is the Queen City. It sets us 24401 Christy Sellers Queen City High School n/a apart in a positive way. Far better than any of the others! Further he was the only person that ran a sxhooleifh respect and dignity and 24401 Rachel Sellers Charlie Kurtz High School self worth! Charles was assistant principal of Robert E. Lee from 1965-68 and he was principal from 1968 until his retirement 24401 Michael Sellers Charels F. Kurtz High School in 1988. Changing the name is the dumbest 24401 Cameron Sellers Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School thing ever!!

This name is a valued part of history, and well known in the Shenandoah Valley. If the name Robert E Lee hurts a few people, they need to study their history. Robert E Lee wa a good man in a difficult time. I graduated from Robert E Lee High School in 1964 and very proud of it. Lee High School would 24401 Sondra Shaner LEE HIGH be a compromise. Because it's bland enough no one can 24401 Jessica Shaner Staunton High School complain that it hurts...... Historical and aligns with surrounding 24401 Alison Shaner Staunton High School None- just no people, please. schools (Wboro, Hburg) 22939 Dean Shaner Robert E. Lee Keep it the same My husband is a Robrt E. Lee alumni we both do not approve changing the 24440 Sarah Shaner Robert E. Lee High School name.

Robert E Lee was an honorable American citizen and citizen of Virginia. The Lee name is highly respected and deserves to be honored in the name of the school. Any other name would be consessional for the sake of apeasement. What would that say 22843 Christine Shank Lee High School about the city of Staunton?

Ok...I don’t like changing the name of my high school to be politically correct, but at least name it after a person who has contributed to the Staunton community... I propose naming it Alphonso Hamilton High School, a wonderful man who served as assistant principal for years and who has been a civic leader...or just name it Staunton High School, but don’t name it after Alphonso Hamilton High someone who has never visited 22980 Angela Shanks-Loan Staunton High School School Staunton... 24401 Jennifer Shannon Staunton High School Hometown pride It's the original name, it's non-political, 24401 Buffy Shapiro Staunton High School none and it's logical. 24401 Kelly Sharkey Queen City High School Should have stayed Lee High To honor the greatest american 24401 Aayush Sharma Donald J. Trump High School president Staunton High School has historical value. Queen City is very Staunton 24401 Elizabeth Shatzer Queen City High School Staunton High School specific. Woodrow Wilson High 24401 William Shaver Queen City High School Staunton High School School Simple and evocative of the city

24477 Laura Shaw Staunton High School ROBERT E. LEE HIGH SCHOOL BC WHY NOT

John Lewis & William Beverley were the originators of what was later called Staunton. It is not offensive, we have primary streets in downtown named after them. Historically it makes sense 24401 Ryan Shaw Queen City High School Staunton High School Lewis & Beverley High School and should be accepted by all

History is what makes Virginia, is what I love about the state I live in. History shouldn't be erased just because 24477 Meagan Sheaves Robert E Lee high school someone doesn't understand it. Because if you are going to change it 24401 Teresa Sheets Staunton High School then it needs to be Staunton high 24401 Jessica Sheets Robert E Lee High School Because it shouldn't be changed 24401 Christian Sheets Staunton High School Lee high school Resident and alumi graduate I think it’s important to not name the school after a person because you people are fallible. It should be named after the city the school resides in such as Waynesboro High School and 24401 Kitty Sheets Staunton High School Charlottesville High School. The other names are too general with 24401 Beth Sheets Staunton High School the exception of “Queen City” 24401 Marnie Sheets Staunton High School Hometown It was orginally Staunton High School and it is a name that would not offend anyone. You can let the students 24401 Jackie Sheffer Staunton High School choose mascots. 24401 Melanie Sheffer Queen City High School Its sounds better 24401 Brittany Sheffield Queen City High School Sounds nice

24401 Fay Shelton Staunton High School Lee High School Leave the mascot to Fighting Leemen 24401 Richard Shelton Staunton High School Lee High School Leave the mascot Fighting Leemen 24401 Jann Shenk Staunton High School Lee High School Staunton Lee... just drop RE. Stay Leemen Returning to the original name. Proud 24401 Charles Shepard Staunton High School to be from Staunton.

It was the original name of our high school. I also like that it tells everyone 24401 Carol Shepherd Staunton High School the location of our high school. Queen city high school is not racist and 24401 Lizzie Shepherd Queen City High School offensive Staunton is the obvious choice and I like Queen City because it’s a little 24401 Mandy Shepherd Queen City High School Staunton High School different. All high schools in district are the name 27560 Cory Shepherd Staunton High School of the city The school is simply located in 24477 Chelsea Shepherd Staunton High School Staunton. 24401 Caroline Sheridan Staunton High School That is our city. It was the name of one of the two schools that integrated to form the 24401 Joseph Sherrill Booker T. Washington current RE Lee HS He is a native Stantonian who 23980 Paula Sherrill Staunton High School Francis Collins High School represents greatness in academics

Dr Collins was born in Staunton. He is currently the head of the National Institutes of Health. He was the head of the Human Genome Project. He is a world-class scientist, author, and leader 24437 Marc Shields Dr Francis Collins High School in the sciences. 24401 Morgan Shifflett Staunton High School because its simple So students can blame the black man 22980 Leslie Shifflett William Ellison High School on slavery 24401 Art Shifflett Queen City High School Staunton High School Simple and fitting Staunton High School is the best possible name for the city's only high 24401 Olivia Shifflett Staunton High School school and the logical choice. 24482 Justin Shifflett Lobert E Ree Cause I like it 24401 JP Shifflett Queen City High School I like it the best No good reason to change it in first place...... disrespectful to an American soldier! Past is the past. Can't move forward and grow if everyone crying 22827 M Shifflett Robert E. Lee High School about the past. The right thing to do for our children and community. We are to be light in 24401 Faith Shifflett LEE HIGH SCHOOL the darkness. 24401 Roger Shifflett R.E.Lee high Heritage history 24401 Ashley Shifflett Queen City High School Staunton High School No States where our home is Both Queen City and Valley High School have direct connections with Staunton 24401 James Shifflett Queen City High School Valley High School N/A City. Staunton is the Queen City and it’s not 24401 Shyanne Shifflett Queen City High School a boring name for a school William T. Sherman High 24401 Joseph Shifflett Staunton High School School Sherman was a great American.

22801 Delshana Shifflett-Martin Staunton High School It sounds best. It’s seems neutral idea I mean we had to change it so might as well just change it to something that 24477 Kiara Shiflet Queen City High School sounds nice

there is no need to change this... would we change it, if it was called Martin Luther King High.. I think not. It is 22980 Candy Shiflett Robert E. Lee High School important to me for it to stay the same

The civil war and slavery attempted to disolve the union. I feel Unity high school is an appropriate name that all people could embrace and be proud of. 24401 Mark Shiflett Unity high school Thank you 600,000 is waste to change the name 24401 Derick Shiflett Robert E Lee high school for a few people. 24401 Robert Shiflett Queen City High School Marble Model High Research :-) 24401 ava shilling Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School not racist 24401 Pamela Shilling Staunton High School Nope Simple, not racist. 24401 Boston Shilling Staunton High School It's the original name

The name change should’ve never even been discussed in the first place. I only chose one of the options it gave me because it wouldn’t let me leave it blank. Robert E. Lee is a man of history and it can’t, and shouldn’t, be erased because black people are offended by it. It’s very sad, to be honest. Whether they change the name or not, that man is still a part of our history. I hope the people that voted to change the name realize how dumb and childish of a decision this was. I will never call it anything other then Lee High, because 24430 Courtney Shinaberry Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School that will forever be it’s REAL name. 24401 Tim Shipe Staunton High School It's our city name!

24401 Eric Shipplett Robert E. Lee High School Because it just fits after all these years Better represents Staunton, more 24421 Sido Shira Queen City High School unique than the other options 24401 haylee shircliff Queen City High School none idk

non political, can keep the royal blue to our colors, have a king/queen as our mascot, our homecoming can be renaissance themed. all reasons to be 24401 Carson Shircliff Queen City High School N/A the queen city high school royals

I went there along with my siblings and daughter. I see no reason to change the name. You cannot please everyone. Is Stonewall Jackson Hotel going to change the name? Like I said, you can’t 24401 Sylvia Shirey Robert E. Lee High School please everyone

Staunton because that's the original name of the high school. Queen City because Staunton is also known as the Queen City and that would allow us to move forward into the future with a 24401 Abby Shirkey Queen City High School Staunton High School (none) brand new name. if i have to pick a new school name which i don’t want to i’d go with 24401 alex shirley Queen City High School robert e lee something cool It's recognizable to everyone and was 24401 Charlotte Shnaider Staunton High School the original name You can't change history, but City Council keeps trying. You can change the name, but it will always be Lee High 24401 Billy Shoemaker Staunton High School School! 22980 David Shores J.E.B. Stuart High School I'm not soft skinned Because if they want to change the name why not change lee highway or 24482 Mehgan Shover Valley High School R.E LEE jr. High school martain luther king road. Best name by far. Supports the history 24401 Kelly Showalter Queen City High School Queen city high of staunton 22980 Mike Showalter Donald Trump h.s. America's great 22980 Jacqueline Showalter Queen City High School Staunton High School They sound cool 24401 Ashley Showalter Queen City High School Staunton High School Simple and elegant. because this process was a shame on 24401 Jim Showalter the city 24401 Coleman Showalter Queen City High School Sounds the best and it's the best

Queen City and Staunton both sound fun and respectable, and they represent the area nicely. I am very happy the name is changing! Thank you 24401 Haley Shows Queen City High School Staunton High School for listening to us! Generic name, not subjected to 24441 Marilyn Shreckhise Staunton High School politically correct changes.

22980 David Shriver Staunton High School It represents the city which it serves. Staunton High School is the original name of the school and seems inclusive without bias. It is in keeping with other area high school names that reflect the geographic area served: Waynesboro High Schiole; Riverheads High School; Stuart’s Draft High School; fort Defiance High School. Non o the other area high schools are named for 24401 Barbara Shue Staunton High School individuals. Original name; reflects entirety of 24401 David Shue Staunton High School Staunton citizenry and community It should be the original name. I am an alumni. Staunton High School encompasses and honors all who pass 11237 Mark Shue Staunton High School through it's doors. I chose these names because I think 24401 Emma Shuey Shenandoah High School Staunton High School they sound the best. Its part of our local history and should 24401 Kaleb Shull Robert e lee high school not be changed No one would know where other named choices for high school would 24401 Jeff Shull Staunton High School Francis S. Collins High School be located.

24401 Brandon Shumaker R.E. Lee high school Leave it alone don’t change it liberals

Donald Trump is a great president and 22843 Zechariah Shutt Queen City High School Donald Trump High School we should be named after that.

Ms. Judkins, who passed away in March 2018, taught music at Booker T. WAshington High School, Shelburne, and Robert E. Lee High School. She beacme head of the Music Department at Lee High. She worked in Staunton City Schools for 32 years. She is one of two African-American female teachers who have taught at all schools in the City of Staunton. I think it would be appropriate and lovely to name our new high school after a local educator, Margaret P. Judkins High and Mrs. Judkins would be a wonderful 24401 Kristen Shuyler Queen City High School Staunton High School School educator to honor. Terry Davis Memorial High Only an Anti-Semetic racist would not 24401 Adam Shwarts School pick this name.

We should not change our history as we are doomed to repeat it should we 24450 Chelsea Sibold Robert E. Lee High School forget where we came from. 24401 Rachel Sicheri Robert E. Lee Because history should be known 23185 Ranj Sidhu Shenandoah Valley High School Sounds cool This name is most representative of the town in which we live as well as represents history by being the original name of the high school prior to its 24401 Kristin Siegel Staunton High School name change. Staunton is already used not named 24401 Calvin Siemers Queen City High School after anyone It sounds the best or like a high school I would want to go to and we can keep 24401 Wesley Siemers Queen City High School the royal blue Collins is a graduate, and lef the Human Barack Obama, Francis Genome Project. I greatly admire him 24401 Eunice Sill Queen City High School Staunton High School Collins and President Obama Francis Collins graduated from Robert E Lee and was born in Staunton Virginia, he went on to do great things in 24401 Molly Sill Francis Collins High School science.

Terry Davis Memorial High He needs more representation as a POC 24401 Ron Silverstein School and as such an amazing programmer.

Combines the Booker T Washington and RE Lee names but this is probably a 21234 Andy Simantel Staunton High School Washington-Lee HS disallowed derivation

24401 Ethan Simmons Staunton High School Robert E. Lee Because Robert E. Lee is a good name

If the Lee name is taken away then no 24421 Suzanne Simmons Staunton High School one individual name should be used 24401 Douglas Simmons Queen City High School Sounds the best 29730 Chila Simmons Staunton High School The city and represents everyone I think it is neutral and represents something about the area that has 24479 Nicole Simmons Queen City High School positive connotations. 24401 Caleb Simmons Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Stonewall Jackson High Stonewall Jackson Hotel 24401 Erika Simmons Queen City High School It’s unique 24401 Makayla Simmons Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Staunton high We live in staunton Because it fits! Why are you trying to 24401 Carl Simmons Robert E Lee High School change history? 24480 Brenda Simmons Staunton High School Staunton Leemen You CANNOT change history. 24401 Dennis Simmons Robert E Lee Stop The Insanity 24401 Candice Simmons Staunton High School meaningful I strongly believe that the name of the high school and the decision to change the name or not should have been left up to the resident of the city of 24401 LeAnne Simmons Robert E. Lee High School Staunton. Great representative name that isn't 24401 Douglas Simmons Queen City High School offensive to anyone

24401 Desiree Simmons Queen City high school Its more interesting than Staunton city 24482 Sarah Simmons Staunton High School R.E. Lee high school Keep it the same

Just because it’s the city name. Didn’t 24401 Melissa Simmons Staunton High School want a name change at all !!!! History. That is lacking in our city and country. Educate your parents and students rather than putting bandages 22980 Alison Simmons Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School on things. I feel they represent all of Staunton’s 24401 Jacqueline Simmons Queen City High School Staunton High School residents

Because no one ways to be called valley high school or Staunton high school 24401 Makayla Simmons Queen City High School that just don’t work and or sound right The town name is most important here. 24401 David Simms Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton Valley High Queen City is the nickname. My peers around me our out now 24401 Prodigy Simms Simms Queen City High School offended Because it is a better fit for our school 24401 Darrion Simms Queen City High School and our community

Not offended by it, plus I know most of 24401 Elijah Simms Queen City High School my peers would enjoy the name. Booker T Washington High BTW was a well known African 24401 Kaiseem Simms Queen City High School School American strong on education.

Just the broad spectrum that the town of staunton revolves around a diverse environment where RE Lee is not a 24401 Jay Simms Queen City High School symbol of accomplishment 24401 Kate Simon Staunton High School Queen City High School All inclusive

Because it’s stupid to change it! Use 24401 Johnny Simonetti Staunton High School Robert E. Lee that money for the students dummies! 22980 Karren Simonsen Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Likeability and area specificity 88240 John Simpson Ricky Bobby high school It embodies strength. 24401 Rasheed Singh Schoolie McSchoolface Best name for school

Lee High is infamous with Staunton. Although I didn’t attend the school, nor will my children, I feel like the name is part of Staunton’s history. We can not change history. It’s a shame some folks want to erase history. I feel like the school board is listening to a loud minority versus representing the majority of the community. I attended a rival high school many years ago. We played the Lee Ladies and the Leeman. 22840 Clairen Sipe Robert E Lee High School Please don’t change the name It has a good sound and isn't tied to a single person's name, saving us this 24401 Gregory Siron Queen City High School argument in 20 years. 24401 Reuben Siskin Staunton High School Keep it simple

Rainbow high For everyone to enjoy, like a pretty 24401 school Skally Rainbow high school rainbow in sky, and includes LGBTQ 22939 Shelby Slayton Queen City High School it’s cool 24477 DeShanda Slusher Staunton High School Makes the most sense Unified High School 24401 Z Small Shenandoah Valley High School (American Eagle) Promotes togetherness in the school Alphonso Hamilton High 24401 Melissa Small School Its time the city fully honored this man.

24431 Aaron small Robert E. Lee High school Because the name should not change!!! Because it needs to flow with the city and “Staunton high school” doesn’t 22980 Rachel Smathers Queen City High School flow at all.

24401 Jay Smiley Robert E Lee High School It’s the real name and will be forever. Paul Hatcher's legacy in Staunton City Schools is unrivaled. He had a positive impact on everyone who went thru the system and that impact extended to tens of thousands of Staunton 24401 Travis Smiley Staunton High School Paul Hatcher High School residents and alumni. 80211 Matthew Smiley Staunton High School N/a Original name

94305 Sarah Smith Adrien Agreste High School Because he is awesome. It sounds better than staunton high 24401 John Smith Queen City High School school 24014 Frank Smith Robert E Lee High School The name is fine the way it is 24441 maranda Smith Robert E. lee Shouldn't be changed 24401 Logan Smith Lee So it is not robert e lee it is just lee We have Harrisonburg HS and Waynesboro HS. It makes sense to attach the city’s name to the high school as with the other cities in our 24486 Jeff Smith Staunton High School area.

Because Staunton would only make sense because it is the town where the school originated. Plus no one should be offended by the name of the City if 24401 Amy Smith Staunton High School North Coalter High they live here presently. 24401 Brian Smith Queen City High School No Dope Francs Collins after the man who graduated from R.E. Lee who led the 22827 Paul Smith Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Francis Collins High School human genome project. Because Robert E. Lee isn't good 24401 Janice Smith Staunton High School enough. 24401 Jeff Smith Robert E Lee History

prominent abolitionist and newspaper 22834 Brenda Smith Willis Carter High School editor; important to our history! It should not be Staunton high it does Anita Smith Queen City High School Queen City panthers not sound tight at all All of your options are ridiculous. Leave 24401 Beth Smith Robert E Lee High School the name alone! Saniyah Smith Queen City High School none It sounds way better 24401 Austin Smith Queen City High School It sounds the best and is unique 24401 Noah Smith Queen City High School Cool 22980 Kelly Smith Staunton High School That was the original name Great name and a unique way to 24401 Madison Smith Queen City High School represent Staunton 24401 Jennifer Smith Queen City High School The best option 24401 William Smith Queen City High School Lee high school Cause it sounds cool 24401 Jimmy Smith Queen City High School Sounds nice 24401 Jane Smith Staunton High School Simple & factual He is the second greatest president 24401 John Smith Donald Trump high school behind Reagan The name of the town is most 24486 Mary Smith Staunton High School appropriate. It's the city name, hard to argue about 24401 Bob Smith Staunton High School that. 24401 H Smith Staunton High School Like it Easiest to theme a school to. Ex.) 24202 Rupert Smith Queen City High School Queen City Knights Because it's the most original and 24430 Mary Smith Queen City High School depicts what the city is about.

Washington High A forward thinking change of any kind 24401 Jeff Smith Queen City High School Staunton High School School will be a welcome one.

Since the school board is changing it anyway why ask the people for their opinion/vote? Why point out that "its ultimately up to the school board but we will ask the people just because"? R.E.LEE High School is a Name it Staunton High School or leave 24401 Klaus Smith Staunton High School good one. the name the way it is. Because your intentions are to try and rewrite history to protect your weak 22812 Jordan Smith PC Snowflake High School easily offended minds

Staunton High School was the original name of the school I attended Lee and 24421 Barbara Snyder Staunton High School graduated in 1971.

Unique and different but still 24401 Elizabeth Snyder Queen City High School represents the city of Staunton well. Every other school in Staunton is named after an educator the high 24401 Jenny Snyder Ken Frank High School school should also. To preserve history and honor a great 22939 John Snyder Robert E. Lee American Many other area schools have 24401 Tara Snyder Staunton High School eponymous names. 24401 Madison Sorber Queen City High School Sound the best They aren’t named for anyone in 24401 Terri Sorber Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School particular 24401 Mallory Sorber Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Sound good It is simple, non controversal return to 24401 Lindsay Sorensen Staunton High School historical name. Shenandoah high school and valley high school aren't specific enough to 24401 Dylan Sorge Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton I like adding "City" because it more 24401 Judy Sorrell Staunton High School Staunton City High School clearly defines the location.

24401 Donald Sorrells Donald Trump High School Great President and leader

Queen City and Staunton High School are non controversial, they reflect the area we live in, and I really like 24401 Brittany Sorrels Queen City High School Staunton High School reflecting the Queen City name. 1) History 2) america has gone to hell 22851 Jared Sours Robert E. Lee bc of people like yall. 3) merica

Because it makes sense not to spend 24401 Clayton Sours R.E. Lee High School the money Staunton doesn't have

she was such an influential part of my high school experience and always 24401 Andrew Southern Cynthia high school brightened anybody's day in the hallway

24401 Christopher Southers Shenandoah Valley High School Michelle Obama High Because she's an inspiration to us all. 24401 Drew Southers Queen City High School Its cuter 24401 Thomas Southers Robert e lee Heritage

544 Jack Sovolot William Aiken High School I like the name

24401 Ruby Sowers Queen City High School no because its not lee and we r queens 24401 Ricky Sowers Robert E. Lee It’s the only name I like !!

Staunton HS designates location and is specific. Has no racial attachments. Paul Hatcher was a beloved coach to boys of all ethnicities for 2 generations. 24467 Lynne Spangler Staunton High School Paul Hatcher High School His name should not offend anyone. I DO NOT feel the name should be 24401 Jean Spath Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School changed 24401 Susan Spencer Queen City High School Sounds the best to me 24401 Michelle Spencer Queen City High School Staunton High School Unique to our small town I don't like any of the choses that you gave me but i like the one that I L.E.E- Leadership, Education, suggested Ledership, Education, and 24401 Jeffrey Spicer Shenandoah Valley High School and Excellence Excellence. I’m a WMHS grad. Staunton High seems like it would be easy to identify, remember, and like Waynesboro High School, representative of the area it serves. Honestly, who could be 23236 Jenn Spicer Staunton High School offended?

Staunton has been referred to as Queen City before and it sounds like a really cool name for a high school. I like the fact that we could be the Queen 24401 Caitlin Spielman Queen City High School City Royals or the Queen City Monarchs.

Queen City is unique and will stand out from the other school in the area while 24401 Carla Spielman Queen City High School still having a link to our past. 24401 Brian Spitzer Staunton High School Valley High School Robert E Lee Keep it the same

Local celebrities, non-controversial, for many years provided free July 4th concerts which brought in many tourist 24401 James Spitzer Staunton High School Statler High and dollars.

I graduated from there and I don’t think Robert E Lee High School, that 3 people who aren’t even from the high school I graduated Staunton should be able to have the 81621 Sandi Spracher from! right or power to change our history. Queen City fits with the branding already established by the city and is neutral in nature - doesn’t refer to a 24402 Emily Sproul Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School specific person or group 20816 David Sproul Staunton High School Since the County already has Safe, durable, accurate. the obvious answer "Wilson" then name the school after Staunton's first City Manager. Staunton is the birthplace of the City Manager form of government which is now used throughout the world. These are historical people from This is Staunton's greatest Staunton that literally impacted the contribution to the world, world; a founder, a father of creating a form of government, a first City Manager, and a government used the teacher who stormed the beaches on D- worldover. Do you know Day, died, and was carried by his fellow our first City Manager's Virginias to his mission objective of St name? I bet not. That's my Lo. Each of these are people that I bet point! We should! Or do most Staunton High School students, you know the "Father" of and most Staunton residents, don't the City Manager form of know, but should. They each honored Government, from our city with the lives they lived, and Staunton? We should know each placed Staunton on the pages of these names. Charles E history. It seems appropriate that we Ashburner was the first give the honor of naming our school to Manger and John Crosby someone who gave of themselves for was the "father" of the sake and love of Staunton. Staunton's government Embrace honor, and honor one of creation. Also I'd suggest those that brought honor upon Ben Sprouse Staunton High School the name of our founder, Sir Staunton. 24401 Kylene Sprouse Queen City High School Valley High School Coalter high school The street name 24401 Kearstin Sprouse Queen City High School i like the name 24401 Brianna Sprouse Queen City High School I like that name. It sounds good

I don't want a generic name for a school that doesn't show our personality. I want a name that shows William Shakespeare High the nation we are a school from a town 24401 Julie Stahl Queen City High School School with a lot of personality.

We want a simple name that shows the 24401 Zoe Stahl Shenandoah Valley High School representation of the Valley.

Queen City is a historically accurate 24401 Laura Stahl Queen City High School Staunton High School "nickname" & Staunton HS is logical. 24401 Sam Stalls Staunton High School I like Staunton, it only makes sense I chose Robert E. Lee High School because changing the name is ridiculous and a pointless waste of everyone's time and the tax payers' 22980 Blair Stalnaker Robert E. Lee High School money. Staunton was the original name, and Collins is a Staunton native that we are 24401 jennifer Stamer Staunton High School Francis Collins High School very proud of If you use Staunton City, then the school buses will not have to be 24401 Alan Stamp Staunton High School changed

Alphonso Hamilton High Mr. Hamilton was a Vice Principal and 24401 William Stanley School incredible role model for the comunity. Because he name doesn’t need to 24401 Samantha Stanley Robert E Lee High School change. For his outstanding and intelligent leadership during the merger of Booker T. and Lee High and his example of Alphonso Hamilton High grace, courage, and goodwill during a 24401 Margaret Stanley Wood School difficult time.

He graduated from Lee High, led the Human Genome Project and is now Director of the National Institutes of health (NIH) , has received the President medal of Freedom and the National Medal of Science. His work will greatly benefit medicine. Originally appointed by Barak Obama and also served under both Bushes as Director of the genome project, and he continues to serve under Donald Trump. He has never forgotten his 24401 Suzanne Stannard Queen City High School Francis Collins roots in Staunton. This is was it is always referred as and is 22980 Holly Stansberry Staunton High School Lee High School not offensive. Terry A. Davis was a groundbreaking computer programmer who fought for years before losing to his own mental health. The purpose of the choice is threefold- to memoiralize an inspirational figure, to shine a light on mental health struggles, and to try to Terry Davis Memorial High get more kids interested in STEM and 24401 Maxfield Stanton School Programming. 24401 Becky Staton Queen City High School Best name on the list

The school was originally named Staunton High School, which accurately identifies the surrounding city. The renaming of the school to Robert E. Lee High School occurred in the early 24401 Angela Staton Staunton High School 1900s, during the Jim Crow era. Queen City sounds neat and it has history behind it, Sheandoah High sounds good and it has to do with 24401 Grace Staton Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School where the school is located Queen City is a represents Staunton it’s another name for our beautiful city and would be great to name our city’s high 24401 Staunton Resident Staunton Resident Queen City High School school

I think it provides a neutral name for 24401 Scott Stedman Queen City High School Staunton CIty High School people of all difference to be apart of.

24477 Christina Steele Staunton High School Represents pride in the city of Staunton 24401 Joe Steele Staunton High School Robert E. Lee Respecting, not burying, history 24401 Gillian Steger Queen City High School Staunton High School It makes sense. We're in Staunton.

Queen city = Staunton City but sounds cooler. Keeping the "royal" blue color. Mascots can be a king and a Queen 24401 Molly Steitz Queen City High School NA "the royals". It's not political.

Accurately reflects what the school is without political baggage; references to Shenandoah do not seem apt because they suggest school is located in city of 24401 Jason Stell Staunton High School Shenandoah farther north

22980 Jack Stellar Mo Bamba secondary center Please The names involving Shenandoah feels too general- either refering to the entire Shenandoah Valley or Shenandoah County. Queen City feels 24401 Matthew Stephens Queen City High School Staunton High School right. I have decided I'm submitting the name Summit High School.. Summit is the top of the hill.. A meeting of two or more for a common purpose and its easy to cheer for and w have the Fort..the Gap..The Draft..The Hornets Nest..we could all have"The Summit" and The Staunton S so many have is still 24401 Cathy Sterrett Staunton High School Summit High School applicable

The man was a outstanding president. He had the national debt at a low. He was a full blooded american. And a 22815 George Stevens Ronald Reagan high school frear role model The Queen City mischief and magic 24401 Kristin Stevens Queen City High School N/A festival is a huge part of staunton 24401 John Stevenson Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School General High School It sounds nice

24401 John Stewart Staunton High School Robert R Lee Leave it as it is due to cost to tax payers 22942 Steven Stewart Staunton High School Robert E. Lee Should remain the same.

The public should have been allowed to 24401 Lisa Stickley Robert E Lee High School vote on the name change. It just sounds the best and fits better than Staunton high school.Also we 24401 Kendra Stidley Queen City High School Lee high school could be the royals. Keeping the focus on the location 24401 Curtis Stilley Queen City High School Staunton High School makes the most sense to me.

Every student needs independence 24401 Molly Stinespring Independence High School sometime in their life 24401 Karen Stinson Staunton High School NA NA because it would be a good marching 24401 paty stodimire Queen City High School no name

It's in the city of Staunton and that was the original name and it doesn't offend anyone. If the name needs to be changed then it should be named after 24401 Tabatha Stokes Staunton High School No Staunton where it is located. 22939 Aaron Stone Robert E. Lee High School Keep it the same.

Simplest choice with the least chance 24401 kevin stone Staunton High School of any getting hurt feelings over a name.

Recognizable among the people of the valley, positive connotations, I feel that the children of this age group would have a more positive experiance with the name, reducing depression and anxiety, make kids want to go to school. Promote mental and physical health, and never giving up on your 24441 Jeffrey Stoner Ricky Bobby High School dreams. I like Queen City because it is unbiased and fits Staunton. But Thomas Howie was a war hero that was from Staunton and saved a town of people in WW2 so if the school is going to be named after Thomas D. Howie High a member of the military it should be 24401 Sarah Stott Queen City High School School him. 22801 Tiveeda Stovall Shenandoah Valley High School I like the location name 24401 Knealand Strain Queen City High School NA It’s a good name I feel that naming my Highschool after my town is cliche and I believe that Queen City Highschool is a much better 24401 Benjamin Strassler Queen City High School Shakespere highschool choice It seems to fit our community and is cohesive in this new vision of Staunton as a gem. The high school really is all 24401 Bonny Strassler Queen City High School that.

It is a trademark for our town which is 24401 Kaelin Strickland Queen City High School Queen City royals easily recognized as Queen City 24401 Denika Strickland Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Neutral 24401 Jermi Stroemple Queen City High School Robert E. lee Waste of money! Keep the name! I personally think it Queen City High School has a nice ring 24401 Miranda Stroemple Queen City High School shouldn’t be changed to it! 22853 Dakota Stroop Robert E. Lee High School Why destroy history?

i chose no name becuase i think it dose Dionysus strother not matter what the school is called

Amaya Strother Queen City High School Sounds better then the other choices 24401 Ta Strother Queen City High School none sounds like a good name

It is unique and has a captivating quality. Bravo on the name change and bringing Staunton along for the journey that this country must take into a more diverse representation of a diverse 24401 Kirt Strother Queen City High School populace.peace 24467 Jeb Stuart Staunton High School Obama High School Positive Leadership

Queen City is a great name for the school it’s creative and it’ll be cheaper to make it Queen City because it’ll be easier to come up with a mascot like the “Royals” or the “Monarchs” which means we could keep the royal blue for the school colors so it’ll save money more since our colors are already blue we’ll just have to change the name from lee to Queen City so it’s a perfect 24401 Student Student Queen City High School fit The student want it to be Queen City !!! Please make the school name Queen 24401 Student Student Queen City High School City

This is our future as students and we truly want our city’s high school to 24401 Student Student Queen City High School become Queen City High School! Students should get the choice of the name and the students want the school to be Queen City High! This is our school and our future so it should be 24401 Student Student Queen City High School our choice The name is the most unique out of the 24401 Bob Studle Queen City High School choices given 22846 Shawn Stum Shenandoah Valley High School Schooley McSchoolface The Internet 22801 Cayden Stump Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School They are cool 24401 William Stuples Queen City High School Robert E Lee High School History

Because spending even 1 cent on an unnecessary name change that just 24401 Snowflakes Suck breeds more snowflakes is absurd. Because who is more worthy of honor 24401 Richard Suckler Niggerfaggot High School than niggers and faggots? 24401 Jazpyr Suicide Trump School Cool Trump Only name that makes since if you are 24401 Jean Sullenberger Staunton High School removing RE Lee The only logical name is Staunton. But I 24401 Kim Sullenger Staunton High School Lee high don’t agree at all. This school needs a name representing 24401 Jamie Sullivan Liberty High School the American Culture 24401 Pam Sullivan Staunton High School Neutral name and represents area

Queen City High School Royals 1. Queen City= Staunton City but sounds better 2. Keeping the royal blue color 3. Mascots can be a king and a queen 4. 24401 Madyson Sumner Queen City High School It’s not political or offensive

It's what it is, I'd like to know the 24477 Christine Sumner Staunton High School RE LEE financial cost of changing the name!

I like queen city because it is not political, and it honestly sounds super cool for a school name like something out of a movie. I have seen a lot of 24401 Faith Supinger Queen City High School students also like the name Queen City. 24401 Katharine Surratt Queen City High School N/A It's cool This has no political background yet still 24401 Addison Surratt Queen City High School sounds appealing.

Lee High School, because it’s usually shortened to that anyway. Also, they could remain the “Leemen” and make 24401 Allie Surratt Staunton High School Lee High School less changes. More cost effective. It’s unique and has character. Also 24401 Rebecca Surratt Queen City High School carries a sense of positive pride. 24401 Hannah Sutton Queen City High School Robert E. Lee Save the name Because it is the name of the school and it’s just history people can’t 24440 Holly Sutton Robert E Lee overcome To make the 4 people who voted for the name change mad as I mad over 24401 Matt Sutton Staunton High School Donald J Trump High School the name being changed 24401 Laura Sutton Queen City High School History Historical name pertaining to Staunton 24401 Burlin Sutton Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School David Hunter High History Queen city isn't fitting so at least do our 24401 Kelsie Sutton Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School area and where we're from anyways. 22939 Autumn Swann Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Shows pride in the location 22802 Vickie Swartz Robert E. Lee High School History Staunton is the city for which the 24401 Gracia Swats Staunton High School school is located The school name should not be changed arbitrarily by four people. Let the voters of Staunton make the decision by referendum. Your own poll indicates a majority do not want the 24401 Tina Sweet Robert E. Lee High School name changed. Woodrow Wilson High 24401 Mary Swisher Queen City High School School President born in Staunton

It fits with the city name. As a graduate of R. E. Lee, I’d like to see the school renamed properly after the old name 22802 Carly Swisher Queen City High School has finally been removed. It should stay R.E. Lee, you can’t erase 24401 Taylor Swisher Staunton High School R.E. Lee High school history.

I feel it would be funny to hear “LET’S 24401 Daniel Switzer Queen City High School GO QUEENS” on the football field.

they should the it the way it is that school has been there for 91 years and when yall went to school you didnt have a problem with it just call it lee high that is so dumb if you want to change 24401 maddi sword it. lee high

Staunton was located on the western frontier in the early history of the US. We have the Frontier Culture Museum located in Staunton. As we move forward as a community and with renovations to our high school, we are moving into a new frontier -- blazing a new trail of understanding and acceptance, as well as educating our scholars for the frontier of their future 24440 Karen Swortzel Frontier High School on this ever changing planet. 24401 Marta Szuba Queen City High School Great name

1. A ridgeback can be refer to as mountains, and we live near the blue mountains. 2. The mascot can be a Rhodesian Ridgeback. 3. Ridgeback dogs are known for their loyalty, and students want to be loyal to their 24401 Danae Szuba Queen City High School Ridgeback Highschool friends and school right? I work in the building and hear what 24401 Cheryl Tacy Valley High School Lee High School the kids want! It doesn’t sound like it would offend 24401 Barbara Talley Staunton High School anyone, but then you never know! M. Rockwell Parker High 24401 T.J. Tallie Queen City High School School Inclusivity You would save a ton of money on rebranding "The Fighting Leemen" just by associating them with Bruce Lee 24401 James Tanner Staunton High School Bruce Lee High School instead of the racist guy 24430 Scarlette Tapley Queen City High School Queen Lee Highschool Middle ground. Because it is a good representation of 24401 Abdullah Tareq Queen City High School Queen City high the name of the city

24401 Tayla Tate Queen City High School Queen of game high school We are very good at our sports.

Just drop the Robert E. and change the mascot that way Leeman will still be in tack for us former Leeman and for those that wanted the change I hope would be satisfied. I'm so over this. But this is my youngest last year and he would like it on his diploma like his 24401 Lori Tate Lee High School brothers.

The two that I chose (Staunton HS and Queen City HS) speak more to a high school in the city limits. The others sound like they could be anywhere in 24401 James Tate Queen City High School Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School the county or greater valley area. Both speak to Staunton. Shenandoah Valley is a much larger area. I don’t feel that these names speak to the city 24401 Leslie Tate Queen City High School Staunton High School location.

I chose Talbott High School after PE teacher and gymnastics coach Hunter Talbott who Lee High Schools track is named after. He was a great influence on many students at Shelburne and with the Staunton Augusta Ymca being 24401 Libbey Tate-Carter Talbott High School a gymnastics instructor.

24401 Nothappy Taxpayer Staunton High School wastefull high use the money to teach the children 24486 Tyrod Taylor Lee High It's a good name Seems most relevant considering other area High Schools are named after their 24401 Jennifer Taylor Staunton High School city/area as well

Plain and simple even though I think 22841 Amy Taylor Staunton High School the name shouldn’t be changed. 24401 John Taylor Staunton High School Simple 24401 John M Taylor Staunton High School Sweet name 22980 Taylo Taylor Staunton High School N/a Wish name didn't change

24401 ANGELA TAYLOR ROBERT E LEE HIGH SCHOOL SHOULD HAVE BEEN LEFT ALONE. This is because the original name of 24401 Geraldine Taylor Queen City High School staunton is Queen City.

Staunton Is the name of the city. The 24401 Inda Taylor Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School school is in the Shenendoah Valley 24401 Katherine Taylor Staunton High School Baldwin Jennings High Cool name

I believe if the school is named after any person, there will still l be people unhappy with the name. The identity North Coalter Street High of the school would show identification 22980 Brenda Taylor Staunton High School School using Staunton or North Coalter Queen City because it was a name for Queen City Royals High the city, and also royal because if you 24401 Natasha Taylor Queen City High School School are a queen you are royalty.

Hunter Talbott was an icon for many people in Staunton and Augusta James Hunter Talbott High County. Coach T touched many School or JH Talbott High students lives throughout the life he 24440 Jordan Taylor Staunton High School School lived. He was a true community hero. Name identifies our geographic location (Staunton High) or a unique identifier for our beloved city (Queen 24401 Amy Taylor Queen City High School Staunton High School City High). Queen City is the nickname for Staunton. Don't use "Squirel' as new 24401 David Taylor Queen City High School Staunton High School mascot, that sounds stupid.

You can keep the *royal* blue color. The mascot could be king or queen. We 24401 Kodie Taylor Queen City High School Queen City High School could be called the Queen City Royals. 24401 Maryann Taylor Valley High School Bruce Lee High It sounds nice City's name and what it is, let's see how 24401 Tom Taylor Staunton High School many will argue over that. 24401 Daryl Taylor Staunton High School Because I'm from city of Staunton 24401 John Taylor Staunton High School Least offensive

It shouldn’t change, you’re spending all this money to change a name but the school needs to be fixed more than it 24440 Jessica Taylor Staunton High School Robert E Lee needs a name change. ridiculous Staunton High School was the original name. Collins is a brilliant man worth 24401 Jenny Taylor Jones Staunton High School Francis Collins High School naming a school after.

24402 Rej Tee Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Francis Collins High School I like all 24401 Tj Tehrani Staunton High School Lame to get rid of old 1. Grow up Just make sure it has a cool Just like every other school is named 24401 Nick Tehrani Staunton High School mascot after the town it’s in

24401 Nancy Temple Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School They are politically/emotionally neutral.

Named for the famous Lee attendant, Francis Sellers Collins High Francis Collins, who was a key figure in 24401 Haley Tenney Queen City High School School the Human Genome Project Both names represent something positive and special about our area. Things that should be celebrated and 24401 Abby Tenney Queen City High School Collins High School remembered. 22980 Elizabeth Terrell Staunton High School N/A Simple! 24401 Billy TERRY Staunton High School

If it must change (which it shouldn't) at 24401 Heather Terry Donald J Trump Highschool least this would be suitable It just makes sense, seeing as how the 22947 Roslyn Terry Staunton High School its located in the city of Staunton 24401 Casey Thacker Queen City High School No History Staunton High School was the original 24401 Mike Thelk Staunton High School Beacon High School name 24402 Louis Thelk Queen City High School Teley Tate high school None It lets people know where we are located (akin to Waynesboro HS, 24401 Amy Thelk Staunton High School Harrisonburg HS, etc.) 24401 Alexander Thibodeaux Queen City High School Supports the history of Staunton It's got energy, is unique and could 24401 Mary Clay Thomas Queen City High School have a monarch as its mascot!

Simple, and wont spark the flood of anti gay sentiment ive already been 24401 October Thomas Staunton High School seeing with the queen city options.

Don't name it after a person. They show pride for our town and 24401 Julie Thomas Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Too many issues with that. valley. 24401 Jane Thomas Staunton High School Valley High School They suit the school and area best

24401 john thomas Queen City High School Staunton High School Malcolm X High School name schools after black people !!!! 24467 Morgan Thomas Queen City High School Staunton high Queen City Because Yas Queen She was a famous Stauntonian who Fannie Bayly King High greatly contributes to the suffragette 24401 Donna Thompson School movement.

No name change is needed. Lee was an honarable figure in the history of our great state. A calculated agenda was pushed by a group of people who don’t 22980 Brandi Thompson Robert E. Lee High School speak for the majority of your citizens. Staunton High School is a neutral name since it is based on the location of the 24401 Devon Thompson Staunton High School high school. 24401 Donald Thompson Staunton High School Original name of school

They all are very bad and do not reflect my opinion on the name change. They 24401 George Thompson Shenandoah Valley High School lack inspiration and character

I think this would be a good name. You can take off the Robert E. Lee and still make it lee high school. As an alumni of the high school it hurts so much to have this name taken away. With just taking off the Robert E Lee there is still part of the meaning to the many people who attended this school 24401 Carter Thompson Lee High School before. 24401 Beth Thompson Queen City High School I like it! Terry Davis Memorial High 24401 Randy Thompson School Terry Davis was a pioneer in technology Staunton High is the only one that makes sense. Except, leaving the name of the school the way it is because it has been that way for years and years. I understand there is controversy but I don’t believe changing the name of this school will change history or the controversy. Please vote again and let 24401 Jen Thompson Staunton High School R.E. Lee High School the school remain as it is. 24440 Jordan Thompson Queen City High School I like it 24401 Brittany Thompson Staunton High School No comment 22645 Tim Thompson Lee Tradition, heritage 24401 Kevin Thompson Staunton High School Lee High School It makes since to me!

24401 Christina Thompson Statler High School Least controversial name I can think of...

The names provided are liberal trash. Just like the spineless pukes on the DONALD J. TRUMP HIGH board who will be voted out. Can you 24482 John Haggerty Thompson Staunton High School SCHOOL say “leaked audio tapes incoming”?

It's always been Lee high school this 24477 Elizabeth Thompson Queen City High School Staunton High School Lee High School way it just doesn't have robert e lee 24401 Deborah Thompson Shenandoah Valley High School Donald J TRUMP High He is our great president 22980 Alice Thompson Staunton High School Statler Because it’s very unique.

Because we are a famLEE so it should 24401 Kathryn Thorne Staunton High School Lee High School be in the name or we are no longer one

24437 Cynthia Thornton Robert E Lee High School Because it’s the name it is meant to be Terry Davis Memorial High Awesome guy, needs something named 24401 Cad Thunderoc School after him. 24401 Laura Thurman Staunton High School I like using the location 22939 Adam Tibbs Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton Blue Devils Easy 24401 David Tibbs Wanted to see poll

22939 David Tibbs Valley High School No reason just like more than the others I like the way it sounds and the mascot could be a woman. Right timefor it to happen. Please don't stop being 24401 Katie Tigert Queen City High School progressive!

We are proud to be the Queen City. 24401 JoAnn Tigert Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton High was the original name.

Seems fitting and in line with Buffalo 24401 Jen Tilburg Queen City High School Frontier High School Gap, Fort Defiance, Riverheads, It is a more creative name then 24401 Katherine Tillen Queen City High School Staunton High School. Charles Hern was an educator, coach and administrator in Staunton for nearly four decades. He was known for his fairness, his high standards and his keen sense of humor. All the other schools in Staunton are named for local persons who had a strong, lasting positive impact on our schools and our community. The high school should be similarly named for an educator who devoted his career to serving 24401 Martha Tillen Charles E. Hern High School Staunton's schools. I think Shen Valley Sounds cool and we could be called the Shen Valley Fighting 24401 Peter Tillen Shenandoah Valley High School Shen Valley High School Presidents I think the name should have something to do with the town or city 24401 Brittany Tinsley Staunton High School Staunton city high school that it's located in 22989 Sara Tisinger Queen City High School R.E Lee wasn't an option 22831 Carlinda Todd Staunton High School Valley High School Accurately descriptive

Robert E Lee high school. it is history and trying to erase history is wrong. shame on the staunton city school board. my child will not go it is history and has been the name for 24401 Tannah Toler Staunton High School to a staunton city school many years

Queen City is another way to identify the city of Staunton within the Shenandoah Valley. The Valley has several high schools and thus it doesn’t seem appropriate to name it after the Valley itself. And Staunton High School 24018 Ann Toliver Queen City High School seems quite plain.

All the others seem pretty basic and could also cause more problems but Queen City seems to be a pretty decent 24401 Alexis Toliver Queen City High School one out of all of them. It’s more interesting than just Staunton 24401 Gabriel Tolley Queen City High School high 24401 Brandon Tom Queen City High School Queen City High School Yes

i dont want the name to change but 24401 ginger toman Queen City High School “queen city” has historical value He went to Lee High school and started the human genome project. He was appointed by president obama as the director of the national institutes of 24401 Stephanie Toman Queen City High School Francis Collins High School health. 24401 Rhiannon Tomlin Queen City High School Royality high school It makes us sound sophisticated 19125 swan tonbalm Valley High School Schoolie McSchoolface way she goes We should want our young people to 24401 Patrick Torrens Staunton High School Barack Obama High be like Barry O. 24401 Theia Toye Queen City High School Staunton High School Its a good name It sounds the best and nothing bad is 24482 Libby Trainum Queen City High School associated with it Because there is alot of business nake 24401 Vy Tran Queen City High School after that 24401 Gary Traxler none They are all so bad. No Change Robert E Lee this is WRONG to try to erase our 24477 Robert Trayer High School history ! 94306 john Tree Negerküsse High School niggers The name maintains a historical 24401 Phillip Trella Queen City High School significance/designation Stonewall Jackson High 76028 Alexander Trimbly School An important historical Virginian.

Queen City is unique. Staunton is 24401 Amy Tripp Queen City High School Staunton High School Hogwarts obvious. Hogwarts for shits and giggles. Staunton has been used before, plus the family may have owned slaves back in the day. Queen City would mark a new start + have a direct tie to the city it is part of as Queen City is Staunton's 24401 Mike Tripp Queen City High School nickname. 24401 Aaron Trovato Staunton High School It's the High School in Staunton. I think the name chosen should be something not already used AN if you name it Staunton High School unless you live here, the name will not br 24401 Wendi True Queen City High School pronounce it correctly 24401 Cassie Trujillo Queen City High School Staunton High School Very neutral

24401 Donald Trump Donald Trump High School I am president. They are gorgeous and give the feeling of a good school that is serious about 24401 Angela Truscky Shenandoah High School Schooly McSchoolface education 24401 Samm Truslow Queen City High School Staunton High School Simple I feel like it’s been RE Lee for so long, it’s a part of history that doesn’t need 22952 Myranda Truslow Robert E Lee High School to be changed

24401 Timothy Truxell Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School Andrew Lewis High school Historic but not tied to the civil war 24440 James Truxell Lee Jackson High Changing the name wad just stupid Shenandoah Valley Highschool could be shortened to SVH which is easy and people will like, and it’s named after where we lived which is pretty. Staunton is also good, because it’s 24401 Anna Trybus Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School where we live.

22980 Kay Ttigilio Staunton High School Match other high schools in the region

In the end, for general clarity and marketing purposes, I think Staunton High School is the best. (I'm really glad 24401 Lisa Tubach Queen City High School Staunton High School you have decided to change the name.)

24467 Shon and Jack Tucker Staunton High School What it was and should have stayed 24401 Brielle Tunia Queen City High School It is different. I think Queen City is charming and also 24450 Erica Turman Staunton High School Queen City High School fitting for the area. 24401 John Turner Staunton High School Liberal Flakes High School Crybabies wanted it changed!! Distinguishes between city an county 22980 Letisha Turner Staunton High School school systems. 24401 Amy Tussing Shenandoah Valley High School Na Na I truly don't care either way what the school is named. I think it is not professional to have the focus so much on a name and not the importance of educating our youth. These youth are our future. I only wished it did not have to get so ugly with nasty and racist comments. I will be happy with this is 24401 Nancy Tyree Staunton High School Robert E Lee High School finalize and things can move on. 24175 Mike Tyree sr Staunton High School Seems right, being in Staunton

History of Staunton makes Queen City 24401 Liam Tyrrell Queen City High School the most creative, logical choice. Its fitting for the city of Staunton - as 22812 Pam Ulmer Queen City High School the Queen city

We do not live in Shenandoah County 24401 Unknown Unknown Queen City High School Staunton High School so those names are not appropriate. Because it was the name of the school 24401 V V Staunton High School prior to RE Lee.

In the opinions of so many Robert E Lee students and upcoming students from Shelbiurne think the new name 24401 Daniela Valdes Queen City High School L.E.E High School suggestions aren’t good. Need to honor the best president in the history of US presidents. Or just name it 23236 Jaclyn Vames Staunton High School Barack Obama High School after the city. 24401 Laura van Assendelft Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Blue Ridge High School we already say Go Blue

It is the most unique -- Shenandoah / Shenandoah Valley sounds too similar 24401 Cady van Assendelft Queen City High School to the Governor's School name 24401 Emily van Assendelft Queen City High School Valley High School Blue Ridge High School Inclusive and not offensive

Takes it back to the original name. It is the only high school for the City of 24401 Melissa Van Fossen Staunton High School Staunton. It is a neutral name.

I chose these names because they Lewis and Clark educational represent the city and community for 24401 Johnny Van Fossen Valley High School center which the name should remain ! 24401 Keith Van Fossen Staunton High School Return to original name

I grew up here and graduated from R. E. Lee. We never associated ourselves with that. Instead we represented the Leemen or Lee Ladies. The student 24401 Sydney Van Fossen Queen City High School Staunton High School Lee High School body was our mascot. I think it sounds sophisticated and 24401 Noah Vanhoy Queen City High School unique

24401 Steve Varino Ulysses S. Grant High School Grant won the war, Lee surrendered. 24401 Jason Varner Staunton High School Recognizing our city’s high school Cause it is located in Staunton and 24477 Tyler Varney Staunton High School makes sense to be staunton high might as well if you are stupid enough 22821 jesus vasquez schooly mcschool face to get rid of r.e. lee 24401 Payton Vaughn Queen City High School staunton queens highschool I realy like the names queens. Lee High School (just get rid 24401 Holland Vaughn Queen City High School of the Robert E.) Queen City sounds sophisticated You can keep the royal blue, and it’s 24401 Ambriel Veldkamp Queen City High School unique to Staunton Historical name of Staunton Virginia and also bring a unquie opportunity for 24401 Blaize Velvin Queen City High School Queen City High mascot choices

Was the original name, is specific to Staunton (unlike Valley or Shenandoah High School), and should offend no one! The risk with naming it after a person is that not everyone might admire that person, and reputations can change over time. I would also 24401 Nancy Venable Staunton High School accept Valley or Shenandoah. I like Queen City, that way we can still 24401 Makayla Venable Queen City High School keep all the blue colors In rememberance if a wonderful principal and great roll model to the 24401 William Veney Staunton High School Cynthia Gray high school Robert e lee community 24401 Jason Vergas Staunton High School Good Lovely representation of our town and area that avoid reference to the 24421 Julia Vessey Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Confederacy. 24401 Jasmine Vest Staunton High School It was the best name I think 24401 Anita Via Queen City High School No It’s not basic like other schools It jst makes it easier without overly 24401 Diana Via Staunton High School offending anyone 24401 Rebecca Via Queen City High School Staunton High School N/a

Staunton should be honored for being a progressive city that was among the first to value minorities - deaf, blind, 24401 Brigitte Via Queen City High School Staunton High School women, and the insane I really think they should have left the name alone maybe remove Roberts 24401 Randall Via Staunton High School It really doesn't matter name but left it jus Lee It's our city's name and nobody can 24401 Elizabeth Via Staunton High School contest that! I graduated from Lee and I think it should just be named after the city like 22939 Susannah Via Staunton High School most other high schools 22939 mckenzie via Queen City High School Staunton High School pretty name I think it sounds great for a school 24401 Andrea Villa Queen City High School name!

24401 Selena Villafuerte Queen City High School It sounds better than all the other ones Three out of the five names you have listed are already in use in the state of 24401 Darren Vires Queen City High School Statler High Virginia

Was the name before! Collins is a local 24401 Lydia Volskis Staunton High School Francis Collins High School person who is very accomplished (Sorry if this submitted twice) It's simple and is a return to it's original pre- 1914 name. I would still be able to identify with it being called "Staunton High School" and feel school pride. I graduated in 2007. If it were named anything else, I would feel distant from my school, it wouldn't feel like my high school anymore. I would maybe be OK with "Queen City High School" as well, but my strong preference is "Staunton High School." It feels right. I'm happy you are changing the name, it was a terrible name and mascot for this day Hannah von Oeyen Altman Staunton High School and age, thank you. School name should identify the 24401 William von Seldeneck Staunton High School none community it serves 24401 Wilson von Seldeneck Queen City High School Queen City High School All inclusive name that sounds cool Wade von Seldeneck High 24401 Wade von Seldeneck Queen City High School Staunton High School School i am a great man It was Staunton High School before and 24401 Robin Von Seldeneck Staunton High School this is the least divisive option. I like it better than RE Lee. It doesn't have any racial connotations connected Daphne Vonn Staunton High School to it. It is the name of the city so just name 24401 Rachel W Staunton High School the school the same 24482 Joe W Staunton High School Wes Bellamy High School “Hero” in our community 24401 A W Lee High School Name change is dumb

Queen City is Staunton’s nickname and I believe it would be a cool and different name. Royals as the mascot that way it could be anyone boy or girl. Let our student been know they are Queen City High School important and that just like rolality they 24401 S W Queen City High School home of the Royals can do anything.

Don't try to erase history, that does not help anyone. Also Facts don't care about your feelings, history should not 24060 kaitlyn waddell Robert E. Lee be erased to please the mob rule. 24401 Kelsey Waddy Queen City High School ? I like the name queens city. Because if we keep changing names, eleminating statue's/monuments, and attemping to earse certain fact from this nation's history then we are bound to keep making the same mistakes that our ancestors made and then later regretted. This country is supposed to be divided between a left and right side, black and white, Republican and Democratic. That is where this country is divided and it's a true shame ... In my personal opinion it should be officially renamed as Robert E Lee because until 2017 there was no issue with this name and the graduates of R. E. Lee turned out just as well as those from other 24401 Derek Wade Robert E. Lee areas of the county

I would still like the school to be called 24401 Carmen Wade Shenandoah Valley High School Lee High School what it was originally made to be called

Collins is a real notable alumni if history is a big part of the nomenclature in the city. Otherwise Queen City high would 24401 Damien Wade Queen City High School Francis S. Collins High School be really cool.

The money being used for the changing of the name can be better spent on improvements of education for our students. Or for a raise for the quality teachers that put in their 110% to make 24401 Griffin Wade Queen City High School Robert E Lee star students. I believe that QCHS would be a neutral name and would open the mascot 24401 Jessica Wade Queen City High School choices up as well. 24401 Thomas Wagner Shenandoah High School Most poetic All 3 I chose connect to the place where 24401 Pamela Wagner Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School the high school exists. I think they represent Staunton more than the current name and reflect our 24401 Emily Wagner Queen City High School Staunton High School Valley High School n/a identity well. It is less generic than Staunton or Valley, reflects the town's history, and won't be confused with schools in the 24401 Carol Wagner Queen City High School city of Shenandoah. Coach T was well known coach, educator. He was tough but fair. He 24401 Tom Wagner Queen City High School Hunter Talbott high school had my upmost respect 24401 Alexis Wagner Call Lee It’s a compromise I think it suits Staunton very well and would suit the school as well. My granddaughter will attend this school and it’s a unique name for its diverse 22980 Renée Wagner-Polen Queen City High School and unique children. 24401 Ryan Wagoner Staunton High School N/a 24477 Jeanetta Waitier Leave name as it is Its history This isn't a name suggestion, but a mascot suggestion: I like Staunton being referred to as the 24401 Virginia Waitier Queen City High School Queen City Wizards Queen City. 24401 Kay Waitier Lee High I like it 24401 Robert Waitier Queen City High School Because Lee is not a option

Because it only makes sense to cakk it what it is. Staunton High School. But George Washington High George Washington High School would 24437 Josey Wales Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School School be even better yet 24401 Nick Walge Queen City High School n/a

Thank you to the Staunton City School Board and to the Superintendent of Staunton City Schools for their hard work on this issue. I believe that Queen City High School or Staunton High School are good choices for a new name. I would suggest that the team name for either of those high school names be the "Royals" ... this depicts the "Queen" designation and would be a fun mascot to embrace for both men 24401 Dori Walk Queen City High School Staunton High School and women.

John Lewis High School. Staunton is name of the city. Queen Regardless of the name City is the nickname for the city. John chosen, I suggest the Lewis is given credit as the founder of nickname of "Royals" for the the city. Royals works great as a sports teams. Fits with the nickname and the school colors can 24401 Steve Walk Queen City High School Staunton High School Queen City moniker. remain blue and white. Francis Collins is an outstanding 21218 Mitchell Walk Staunton High School Francis Collins High representative of Staunton. It sounds more appealing, other schools in area just go by the town and I think that Queen City would be 24401 Trinity Walker Queen City High School different in contrast

24477 Stephanie Walker Staunton High School Staunton City High School Sound better than the other options 24401 Edward Walker Staunton High School That used to be its name 24401 Aaliyah Walker Queen City High School We’re the Queen City

Francis Collins is among the most venerated people to have ever graduated from Robert E. Lee High School, if not the most. I don't know him personally, but he seems like the kind of person everyone can find inspiration in, within a town as small as ours. He's someone that rose above our small town, and shows that anyone from this town can make it big and achieve a lot for humanity. As a recent graduate of the school, someone like that would have been just great to look 24401 Dominic Walker Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Francis S. Collins High School up to. It is the best name for that school and holds history for the students who have 24401 Lori Wall Robert E. Lee High School graduated through those doors. 24401 Matt Wallace Queen City High School Good

24401 Kayden Wallace Staunton High School Because I think that they sound cool I think this because this would make a good chant in the friendly 24401 Harrison Wallace Queen City High School Staunton scooter high competetition.

They're accurate, inoffensive, pleasant- 24401 Lia Wallace Queen City High School Staunton High School sounding, and appropriate. 24401 Matthew Wallace Queen City High School Queen City Royals sounds cool. It is the least bit offensive and our city is called the Queen City and royals would fit our traditional royal blue color. I also think our mascot should be 24401 Cullen Wallace Queen City High School Staunton High School Queen City Royals a lion like ODU’s. Its a high school and in Staunton, 24401 chris Wallace Staunton High School seems pretty simple right? 24401 Kayden Wallace Staunton High School Sounds nice 24431 Christy Wallis Queen City High School Queen City to honor Staunton They reflect the positive history of the city, and naming the school after Charles E. Ashburner is a nod to the 24401 Lindsey Walsh Queen City High School Staunton High School Ashburner High School innovation in Staunton It isn't offensive and it deals with our 24401 Jason Walsh Queen City High School No town itself

Keep the name the way it is!!! Why are we confirming when it is part of our past. Look to the future of our students to educate them I like the current one. I don't like any of 24401 Barbara Walters Queen City High School and end this bigotry. the other names. Being named the Queen City is a part of 24401 Jacquelyn Walters Queen City High School Stauntons history. I feel like those names represent our 24401 Tara Walters Queen City High School Staunton High School city. :) Shenandoah Valley High School highlights our beautiful landscape, Francis Collins is an inspirational figure 24401 Carolyn Wampler Shenandoah Valley High School Francis Collins High School actually from the area. I like using the nickname of Staunton but also think it may confuse many 24401 Joseph Wampler Staunton High School Queen City High School people

$ave money by rejiggering the honorific for Lee's *DAD*, Lighthorse Harry Lee, famed Virginian Lee of the 18th century and KEEP your uniforms and team 22980 T.J. Ward LEE High School names like fighting Leemen, etc It is not offensive if you just call it lee 24401 Dyllon Ward Queen City High School Lee high and I like the name queen city Queen City gives the school more uniquity, and my suggestion would be more special with a more specific 24401 Patricia Ward Queen City High School Heather Heyer High School message. 24401 Cathy Ward Hunter Talbert High School Very dedicated teacher and coach

Queen City is more unique than Valley or Shenandoah. Heyer attended Lee High (I believe) and represents 24401 Stephanie Ward Queen City High School Heather Heyer High School inclusiveness and courage. 24486 Theresa Warlitner Staunton High School Lee High School History Go to the original name. The south were traitors and slavers. I’m a 1974 24421 Jerry Warner Staunton High School graduate of RELee

Apolitical alternative with a potentially 24401 Jacob Warner Queen City High School Queen City high school equally apolitical, better mascot name. It is a part of history and stupid to 24401 Taylor Warner Staunton High School Keep the lee name change it

24401 Matt Warner Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Francis Collins High School Famous scientist from Staunton. Resident of staunton and educator 24401 MICAH Warnock Queen City High School Hotchkiss High School while still keeps co federate charm 24401 Desiray Warren Lee High school Cuz i graduated there 24401 Ronnie Warren Lee High Cuz that what I want Staunton high school because we live n Staunton and Shanadoa vally high school because we live in the 24401 Rebecca Warren Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Shanandoa vally so it makes sence.

Reclaim the Name. The change from Staunton High School to Robert E. Lee 24401 James Warren Staunton High School High School should be reversed. Lee stands for Leadership, Excellence, 24401 Cindy Warren Lee high Education 24401 Grace Warren Queen City High School ITS COOLER He is doing a lot for our country...as did 24482 Karen Warren Donald Trump Robert E. Lee

Started out as “Staunton HS”. Other area schools are named after town. 22939 Brenda Warren Staunton High School Lee High school Makes it easier at games. 22980 Constance Warren Queen City High School Completely takes my breath away

If you have to change you may as well keep it simple just like Waynesboro High School to identify the city it's in. Or change it to Lee HS without the R.E. It might save on the cost of changing 24401 Angela Warren-Tehrani Staunton High School Lee High School uniforms, signs,etc.

Because people know it as Lee not Robert E. Lee and Staunton High School 24430 Desirae Washington Staunton High School Lee sounded better than the other choices

Its the name of the school regardless of what you put on the front of the building. Save taxpayer money. The 24401 Chris Washington R.E. Lee High School people of Staunton don't want this Proud 1976 graduate, Heartbroken my 22801 Cindy Washington Lee High School history will be erased

24401 Christopher Washington Staunton High School Because I didn't like the other names. 24401 Rick Washington Staunton High School It's better than the others. 22980 Wanda Washington Staunton High School The original name of the school Dab on them haters nigga 24401 Nigga Watermelon Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School high Fortnite So you don’t have to change the uniforms and everything that already 94305 Micayla Waters Staunton High School Lee High School say Lee He was a great teacher at the high school. And showed some of us how 24401 Shaun Waters I Staunton High School Need Bonfoey High School big the world really is. 24401 Chelsea Watkins Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School nothing no reason

This name should not offend any of the 24401 Gordon Watkins Staunton High School delicate souls with a history problem. It's the city name, hard to argue about 24401 Don Watson Staunton High School that.

24401 William Watson Staunton High School School board made a stupid decision. 22939 Will Watson Queen City High School It sounds classy Queen City is a great name and provides for great mascot names such 22939 Will Watson Queen City High School as “Royals” 24401 J.J Watt Queen City High School Raptor high Because i want to be royals

General Lee was an honorable man who did not own slaves himself, and as executor of his father-in-law's will, instructed his wife and daughters to teach the slaves in their temporary custody to read and write in preparation for their freedom, which 24401 Barry Watts General Lee High School was stipulated in his father-in-law's will. 24017 Devon Watts Robert E Lee High Because it's just fine the way it is

24401 Jiyon Watts Queen City High School Non Sound greats and better than Staunton Everyone was offend by "Robert" so 24401 Kyla Waybright Lee high school just leave it as lee Name of the city only makes since to have the only HS to be named after the 24401 Charnette Wayland Staunton High School Staunton city 22802 Claire Wayman Queen City High School Staunton High School Location is clear 22508 Pamela Wayne Staunton High School It is the most reasonable choice. 22801 Jackson Weakley Queen City High School Bluestone high school Sounds cool

24401 Timothy Weaver Queen City High School I like the sounds of it. Sounds unique. If it has to be changed they're the best 24401 Heather Weaver Queen City High School Lee High School options 24486 Satina Weaver Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Lee High School I chose it because I like the name

It would be cool to be called the Queen City Royals, and if we could still be Lee High, We wouldn't have to change our 24401 Sarah Webb Queen City High School Lee High School cheers or anything. Because people cant get offended at 24401 Sarah Webb Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Sky Hawke High School these names. 24401 Ellen Webb Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School Valley High School Talbott high He was great teacher!

24421 Mason Weddle Shenandoah Valley High School R.E lee It shouldn’t change In the first place Civic pride; identifies Staunton with the 24401 Robert Weeks Staunton High School high school's achievements

Seems like the natural name when a city only has one high school. Good PR 24401 Lydia Weeks Staunton High School for the city. City recognition.

History... I attended Virginia Military Institute and I marched from Lexington to New Market battlefield just like Stonewall did as a college professor at VMI during the war. He was very Stonewall Jackson High intelligent. I like Queen City the best 24401 Jeff Weeks Queen City High School School though

Staunton is known, historically, as the 24401 Jeff Weeks Queen City High School Queen City High School queen City of the Shenandoah valley

staunton hs is the best choice for everyone to be included and proud to say that i am from STAUNTON and i am 24401 Lewis Welcher Staunton High School proud to represent STAUNTON It is generic and should make everyone 24401 Jennifer Welcher Staunton High School happy.

Hunter Talbott was a major influence on a lot of students that have been all through the City school system. He was an upstanding and outstanding pillar of 24437 Meridith Welcher Hunter Talbott High School our community! I choose Queen City because its a better name for the school. And it 24401 Shi Wells Queen City High School sounds cooler then Staunton High.

While I live just outside the city limits now I remain very connected to Staunton having lived and worked there for 30+ years. While there are several individuals worthy of having the school named in their honor, “Staunton High School” is representative of the locality it served and is all inclusive. As for a mascot(s) or nickname-“Kings and Queens”or “Fighting Kings and Queens” of Staunton High School !! Again, all inclusive. Good luck with 24401 Butch Wells Staunton High School N/A your decision ! 24401 Shi Wells Queen City High School Way better then staunton high Night Fall sounds very beautiful and Staunton has always had gorgeous nights and Queen City High School is 24401 Lorenzo Wells Queen City High School Night Fall High School really nice too 24401 ashten wells Queen City High School i like it

Why change the name. Now it is going 24401 Tanika Wells Robert E. Lee High to cost more for Staunton, Va. payers 24401 Darrien Wells Queen City High School It sounds better than Staunton high 24401 Derek Wenger Queen City High School Queen City sounds cool it's a cool name and Staunton is known 22834 crystal Wenger Queen City High School as the Queen city. Werbenjagermanje 24019 Smitty nsen Krabby Land High School Eugene Krabs rocks! 24401 Brock Wesley Staunton High School N/A My preference. Paul hatch because he was a legend at this school and the gym is named after 24401 Treyvn West Queen City High School Paul Hatcher high school him We should not be making after a person. We should reflect or region. The name was Staunton high, let's not 24401 Jeremy West Staunton High School Valley High School forget the history 24401 Camdyn West Queen City High School none none 24401 Phoebe West Queen City High School Staunton High School Progress high school Just so happy Lee Is gone! - sound the best and there’s literally no 24401 Hailee West Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School N/A issues with them

Ricky Bobby is an important southern figure not weighed down by a history of racism and oppression. He is a cultural icon that is better suited to represent Southern Heritage. And who wouldn't like the phrase "if you're not first, you're last" to inspire children to 22801 Madison Westmoreland Staunton High School Ricky Bobby High School do their best? To make it fair! Get rid of a name that hurts and name it something everyone can agree on! It's in Staunton so therefore name it after where our 24482 Jessie Wheeler Staunton High School community is! 24401 Tiffany Wheeler Queen City High School Lee High School No choice It is the name of the city where school 22482 Shannon Wheeler WHEELER Staunton High School is located 24401 Cody Wheeler Queen City High School Sounds the best 24472 Kyle Whigham Queen City High School Schooley McSchoolface Cause it’s fuckin dope 24401 Cassy Whitacre Staunton High School Neutral and accurate 24401 jacob whitaker Queen City High School keep it the same they sound cool 24401 Mandee White Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School I have chosen the Queen City Royals because it is different and can bring and new and fresh name to Staunton. If this name is chosen then one of the colors should be changed to a dark 24401 Ky'Nasia White Queen City High School Queen City Royals royal purple. 24401 Mandee White Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School none 24477 Harold White Queen City High School It’s unique We don't get an option. This is all to keep people thinking they have a say when the decision of 4 people is all the 24401 Mandee White Shenandoah Valley High School Valley High School really matters. Queen City counts cool, and the mascots choice could be the Royals, Queen City High School with the royal blue color and a king 24401 Zach White Queen City High School Royals AND queen mascot.

It's the only name with character, but 24401 Josh White Queen City High School N/a still keeps the essence of Staunton.

I chose Queen City High School because it shows the uniqueness of Staunton City and how much it stands out in the 24401 Jason White Queen City High School surrounding area and the valley shows our uniqueness as a city in the 24401 Mitzi White Queen City High School Shenandoah valley

24401 Nazeil White Naz Queen city sounds better than Staunton

You should advertise your best 24401 Aaron White Queen City High School Erik Nylander Highschool teachers, they deserve the recognition.

Francis Collins graduated from Robert E Lee High School and went on to play a major role in the human genome project. He was a great example of what students graduating from Staunton's high school can accomplish. Also, he is close to a celebrity in the biology world and Staunton should 24401 Allison White Queen City High School Francis Collins High School utilize this. There is no educational need to change 24401 Ben White Robert E. Lee the name. Because the city is occupied by a bunch 24401 Wesley White Queen City High School Staunton High School Snowflake high school of liberal snowflakes 24401 James white Valley High School nice ring to it Francis Collins is an alumni as well as the Leader of The Human Genome 24479 Dakota White Queen City High School Staunton High School Francis Collins High School Project They are all very representative of our lovely city. They also do not discriminate against any group of 24401 Spencer White Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Shenandoah Valley High School people. 24401 Csayjah Whitelow Queen City High School Lee Staunton’s original name Because this name change crap is stupid. Learn the real history and get over yourselves. Donald trump is an awesome president and deserves a 24482 Dustin Whitesell Staunton High School Donald J Trump High school school named after him. I think it’s something unique that represents the City of Staunton in a 24401 Emma Whitesell Queen City High School positive manner Most area high schools are named for the jurisdiction in which they are located in and I feel Staunton should be as well. Understand Staunton is known as the “Queen” city but I see arguments as to why not call it the “King” City high 24401 Rita Whitfield Staunton High School school.

An Alumni whose work with the Human Genome Project has contributed to the 24401 Genhi Whitmer Staunton High School Francis Collins High School betterment of many

It makes sense to name the school after the city it is in, I don’t understand why 24401 Sonya Whitmer Staunton High School it was ever changed to RE Lee.

The name carries the name of three former educators in the city of Staunton. Kenneth Frank was a former school superintendent. Ernest Holley was a guidance counselor and teacher. Charles Kurtz was a former principal of Frank-Holley-Kurtz High Robert E. Lee High School. All three 24401 Richard Whitmore School were outstanding educators on this city. Because it should not be changed until the correct history is learned by all 24401 Chris Whyyouneedthis Robert E Lee envolved 22801 Emily Wicht Queen City High School Staunton High School The others are too generic It celebrates the city itself, without renaming the school from a time period 22901 Tekia Wicks Queen City High School that is non inclusive. Best choice since it was currently 24401 Marsha Widner Staunton High School named this.

Both suggested names (Staunton HS and QCHS) reflect where the school is located and communicate clearly who attends the school. The other suggested names could cause confusion as to where the school is located. I suggest Stephen Moore HS in honor of Mr. Moore, who taught chemistry at Lee High for many years, was an outstanding student at Lee High, and has contributed (and Wieland (formerly continues to contribute) much to the 66226 Jennifer Bowen) Queen City High School Staunton High School Stephen Moore High School Staunton community. 24401 Kathryn Wigglesworth Queen City High School Harry Potter High School They sound cool Because it's a school and it's a kickass 16635 Cat Wilde Schoolie McSchoolFace name 24401 Nick Wilde Staunton High School AdoIf HitIer High School Fourteen Eighty Eight Staunton is what all students have in 24401 Gretchen Wilhelm Staunton High School common. Woodrow Wilson High 24401 Will Wilkerson Staunton High School School Staunton is the birthplace of him Honoring a local great that positively 24401 Blake Wilkerson Paul Hatcher High School impacted our youth. All of the high schools in the area seem to be named after their location, so Staunton High School makes the most sense to me. If going "back" to the old high school name is controversial, using the "Queen City" nickname is a good 24401 Aleeza Wilkins Queen City High School Staunton High School alternative, though not as recognizable. You didn’t give me the choice to change the name, so this is all I get to do. I will however get to vote for new 24401 Jeremey Wilkins Staunton High School board members! 24401 marvin willams Queen City High School cause It is a neutral name. Staunton high school was a segregated school. It’s 24401 Lindsey Willard Shenandoah High School new and relevant and neutral. 24401 Madie Williams Queen City High School Bc it better 24401 George Williams Staunton High School Good name. Its completely generic and in noway 24401 Ross Williams Public School #1 could offend anyone. 22835 John Williams Valley High School Virginia I like it 24401 Sandra Williams Queen City High School Originality. Should go back to the original, and I 24401 Megan Williams Queen City High School Staunton High School just like Queen City 24401 Anthony Williams Queen City High School I'm not offended by the name.

One if the most famous modern day scientist that is revolutionizing the workd as we know it went to this high school and should be honored by 24401 Jennifer Williams Queen City High School Francis Collins High School naming the school after him. 24401 Keziah Williams Queen City High School sounds good

Because bending over for the p.c.crowd is creating tyrants. You can't erase 24401 Sheila Williams P. C. Weak history by changing a name. Disgusting. Surrounding schools have their city name (Harrisonburg, Waynesboro, Charlottesville, Rockbridge County). Also when we appear in state tournaments, people will link our 24401 Victoria Williams Staunton High School school name to our city. 24401 Drew Williams Valley High School No name high school. So no one offended ?? 24401 James Williams Staunton High School The original high school name.

Lee High School and get a It simple fix and a great compromise. 24401 Jan Williams real mascot And much less money will be spent 24401 Brooklyn Williams Queen City High School It’s a good name 24401 Avery Willie Queen City High School Best one 24401 Avery Willie Queen City High School it is the best one 24401 Erin Willie Queen City High School Its the best one 24401 Avery Willie Queen City High School Best one Staunton High School honestly seems like the best choice for me. It identifies our town and is similar to other local high schools: Waynesboro High, Harrisonburg High, Page County High, etc. These schools are all named based on their location. I had never considered Shenandoah Valley High, but it has a nice ring to it. I like it. Thank 24401 Brandi Willie Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School you all for your hard work. Queen City High School is a better choice than Staunton High School. 24401 Stephanie Willis Queen City High School Valley High School Queen City describes our city 24477 John Willis Schooly McSchool Face Because 24401 Beyonia Willis Queen City High School Queen City high school It’s a reasonable name It just makes sense... identifies the school's location and it was once the name of the school. Couldn't be 24401 Richard Wills Staunton High School simpler! People need to grow some balls and quit getting but hurt over everything. Segregation is over ao quit bitchen and 24401 Bob Willy Queen City High School Leave it the Hell alone. RE lee get a life. Staunton HS is best that is for all in 24401 Fred Wilson Staunton High School geographical area 24401 Holly Wilson Staunton High School Valley High School Coalter High Location We are a popular tourist city and outsiders know us as Queen City, so it would make sense for that to be our name. As well, we would keep the same 24401 Haley Wilson Queen City High School school colors. 24401 Reece Wilson Staunton High School It is the name of our city. It is simple and should not OFFEND or 24401 James Wilson Staunton High School HURT anyone. Staunton is the most appropriate choice. Even though Queen City is a good name, in the long run, it will Staunton is a more better choice. not be best for ALL Queen City is not a good name for a STUDENTS. The male high school, considering what's best students will be called for ALL STUDENTS. Male Students will 24401 Wayne Wilson Staunton High School "QUEENS" "FAGS", etc be called "QUEENS", "FAGS", etc

Keeping the name provokes thought. When though is not provoked and history is forgotten it is doomed to repeat. The name reminds us of the history in our area and should make us 24401 Katie Wilson Robert E. Lee High School proud for how far we have come. 24401 Bobby Wilson Staunton High School Best choice

Other names listed are too rural for the school, Queen City encompasses 24401 Caroline Wilson Queen City High School Staunton’s personality 24401 Bryan Wilson Staunton High School It makes the most sense He was responsible for designing a number of buildings around town, including the old high school. Naming it after him would be a nod to the old school and to a man whose influence on the Staunton's bueautiful and unique cityscape is still felt. Without him, an event like Mischief and Magic 24401 Gary Wilson Shenandoah Valley High School T. J. Collins High School would never have happened.

I chose Queen City HS and Staunton HS because these names are more representative of the location of the HS. I feel like either of those two names allow the community to better identify with. Also, these two names encourage students to learn more about our 24401 Rosemary Wilson Queen City High School Staunton High School history. 24401 Dave Wilson Staunton High School Tired of the drama. Staunton’s downtown district is constantly referred to as Queen City, so it is only appropriate to name the new high school after such a lively 24401 Oliver Wilson-Cook Queen City High School downtown

24401 Steve Wilt Staunton High School Robert E Lee Nothing wrong with the previous name. 24401 Juanita Wimer Staunton High School Most logical They make sense when compared to 24401 Greyden Wimer Queen City High School Staunton High School Waybesboro High School It is in staunton. Why not name it after 24401 Janice Wimer Staunton High School the city 24401 Gary Wimer Staunton High School Most logical 24401 Dylan Wimer Queen City High School Staunton High School They truly represent the city itself 24401 C Wimer Queen City High School Staunton High School Proud of the City of Staunton 24401 Tyler Wimer Staunton High School Nope It’s cool It is descriptive of the location of the school and it reverts back to the 24401 Jane Wimmer Staunton High School original name. because the high school is in staunton and the name also shouldn’t be 24440 mia windley Staunton High School R. E. Lee High School changed

I believe, that the Real housewives set a The Real High School of wonderful example and hold values in 24401 Charlotte Windsor Staunton, VA which we should each strive to achieve The only decent one should leave it the 24401 Kristine Wine Staunton High School same smh Because I can’t choose lee high 24401 Ashley Wine Queen City High School anymore Because Staunton is the queen of all 24401 Blair Wingfield Queen City High School cities! He was the founding father for the city 24401 Monica Wirth John Lewis High School of Staunton.

It is more original than "Staunton High 24401 Fiona Wirth Queen City High School School" and more applicable to our city!

27707 Clayton Wisely Staunton High School Francis Collins High School He is a distinguished alumnus. KEEP IT THE SAME, NOTHING IS 22980 Bill Wiseman Robert E. Lee WRONG WITH IT The Blackfriars is a big part of stauntons community and with the schools amazing theater program which is one of the leading in Virginia we should 24401 Rhiannon Wiseman Queen City High School Blackfriars highschool recognize it 24401 Andrew Wiseman Queen City High School Staunton High School Others were too generic

It's neutral he believed that everybody (MLK) Martin Luther King should be created equal. That's what 24401 Dwayne Witherspoon High he fought for equality in all men First African American President and 24401 Keishawn Witherspoon Barak Obama made allot of great changes

Dr Nancy Witt focused heavily on education and community outreach, developing teacher training programs Dr. Nancy G. Witt High through affiliations with MBC, UVA, 22980 Sam Witt Shenandoah Valley High School School JMU, and Bridgewater College. 22801 Griffin Witt Queen City High School The name is important in staunton 24401 Emma Witt Queen City High School its the best one

I selected this name because it truly encapsulates the essence of the school. I had a shitty four years there because the students were shitty, the teachers were shitty, and the education was shitty. Changing the name will not change the fact that this school is the 24401 Stacey Wittenberg Shitlicker High School shit stain of Staunton. because if you must change it, keep it 24401 Morgan Wodesky Staunton High School simple and use Staunton

This is something the citizens all have in common. Shenandoah is confusing to be honest. The S.V. is a BIG place. I prefer Staunton High School, but Francis Collins is someone we all 24477 Randall Wolf Staunton High School Francis Collins respect and can aspire to. Any persons name could be offensive to a citizen one day.that is The reason you chose to change it at great expense. Dont make it happen again in the future by using another person's 22939 KW WOLF Staunton High School Public School #1 name. I think Queen City is a unique name that stands out from other schools. Shenandoah Valley is reflective of our 24401 Jelisa Wolfe Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School region. 24401 Luke Wolfe Queen City High School Staunton High School Robert E. Lee High School Tradition and civic pride I believe that the city needs a break between the two original names suggested. The suggestion of Staunton High School was used by a specific side in the renaming debate, and while I fully support the change of the name, I do believe that it would be smart of the school board to not appear to be awarding one side. I believe naming the school "Staunton High School" would 24401 Keelin Wolfe Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School N/A be seen as doing just that. Any name other that Staunton High School would one day offend someone else leading to more wasted tax dollars to rename the school. Staunton High School was the original name to start 22939 Wayne Wolfe Staunton High School Public High School #1 with. Because it is the name of our city and 24401 Brenda Wollner Staunton High School not a person.

There are better uses for the taxpayers 24477 Tammy Wolters Robert E Lee High School money than what this change will entail. Name should not be changed. Shame 24431 Joshua Wonderley Queen City High School Robert E. Lee High School on you. 24401 Aaron Wood Queen City High School No It’s the better one 24401 Audrey Wood Queen City High School It represents the charm of Staunton

Because there's nothing wrong with it - 22401 Traci Wood Robert E. Lee High School a great American of duty & honor! The name should not be changed because he is an important historical figure that did many great things for 22980 Parker Wood Robert E. Lee High School our country.

22980 Gwynne Wood Queen City High School It’s fun and reflects a sense of pride. That’s the name of our city, it only makes sense. Also, we are not the only 24401 Kelsi Wood Staunton High School school in the valley!

Chris Long is a former resident of the Commonwealth of Virginia, went to college in Virginia, and has donated significant time and money to support education in this Commonwealth. Additionally, he has acted as a tremendous role model for the children and people of this area, through his promotion of income and racial equality. I feel that his example is the perfect model to base the new name 22980 Seth Wood Chris H. Long High School for the school after. 1. Queen City = Staunton City but sounds cooler 2. Keeping the *royal* blue color 3. Mascots can be a king AND a queen (YAS QUEEN) 4. It’s not political 5. It just sounds cool I mean 24401 Elle Wood Queen City High School N/A come on 24401 Jeannie Wood Valley High School N/a Had to pick one Unity describes togetherness 24401 Lauren Woodard Queen City High School Unity valley high school ,orchestration as one .

24401 Christian Wooddell Queen City High School Queen City Royal High School IDK He’s leading the resistance for individual freedoms unlike democrats who wants to control your every word you speak and action you take aka 24467 Brandon Wooddell Donald trump high school “slavery”

24401 Mahlyk Woodfolk Queen City High School Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Stanton Valley High School It goes good for stanton There is no debating the school is located in Staunton and it matches 22843 Paula Woods Staunton High School N/a Waynesboro High school 22980 Isabel Woodworth Queen City High School It’s an original but relevant name It is original, flows well, and would provide a great opportunity for a good 22980 Emmaline Woodworth Queen City High School mascot (royals).

The reason for queen city is because the nick name for staunton used to be queen city and that would be cool to incorparite that. And royals because it sounds better and you would not have 24401 Makayla Woolridge Queen City High School Queen City Royals to change the colors. 24421 vicki woolridge R L HIGH SCHOOL LEAVE THE NAME 24401 Lillian Woolston Queen City High School More appropriate No other schools around have a nickname of Royals and I think it would go well with QCHS. I also think it would be good to go with Orange and Navy Blue as the school colors as a tribute to both the graduates of Booker T. and 24401 David Woolston Queen City High School Lee. Queen City High with Royals 24401 Michelle Woolston Queen City High School Staunton High School as mascot They show the most pride in our city I don't think people know enough about R. E. Lee, so having his full name Robert Edward Lee High for the high school will may encourage 24467 William Wright School more study. 24401 Khari Wright Staunton High School Staunton City High School The name represents Staunton City 24477 Emily Wright Staunton High School Its the town the school is in I feel this name represents our 24401 Erin Wright Queen City High School N/a community well. 22980 Robin Wright Queen City High School we r the Queen City 24401 Mia Wright Queen City High School It sounds classy and fancy 24401 Aerial Wright Queen City High School I just love that name. 24401 Christopher Wright Queen City High School Mark Tinsley High School He was such an amazing guy 24401 Jon Wright Staunton High School Collins High School Geographic relevance. 24401 Will Wright Queen City High School It's new and unique I feel Staunton High School is appropriate since that was the original 22812 Veronica Wright Staunton High School name.

Many of the other high schools in the area are named after their communities (Waynesboro, Harrisonburg, Fort Defiance, etc.) Staunton HS would be 24401 Christina Wulf Staunton High School none consistent and simple. 22939 Ned Wulin Shenandoah High School Staunton High School Clear and concise

24482 Cass Wyant Queen City High School Barack Obama High School It’s lit 24401 Mason Wyatt Staunton High School No Should make everyone happy 24015 Lindsey Wyatt Queen City High School it’s cool I did not want the name changed, but 24401 Laura Wyckoff Queen City High School Lee high this may be a compromise 24401 Rosanne Wykes Staunton High School Simple Adolf Hitler didn't enslave blacks, he's 24401 Malcolm X Adolf Hitler High School more moral than Robert E Lee Robert E Lee High school - Lee High will always be Lee 24401 giiim xx LEEMAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 24401 Kiana Yancey Queen City High School Staunton High School Staunton city high school Its simple

24401 Jeremy Yapo Staunton High School N/A To revert it back to its original name. 24477 Merab Yeomans Queen City High School None It has the best ring to it

Because snowflakes are fragile and unique, much like many members of the voting committee that decided to 24401 Anon Ymos Staunton High School Snowflake High School erase part of our history. Best option available. Should not be 24421 Amy Yoder Staunton High School changing school name at all! 24401 Evan York Queen City High School Robert E. Lee High School I'm used to it 24401 Diana Young Staunton High School It seems like a logical decision

I love the Queen City! I went to county 22939 Yvonne Young Queen City High School schools but lived in Staunton for years.

Naming public schools after a person can be treacherous; even naming a school after a prominent citizen is fraught with danger. For example, few people would have objected to Woodrow Wilson High School 30 years ago, or perhaps even more recently. But it is virtually certain that naming the high school after him now would likely lead to objections. Because public schools should be inclusive and welcoming to all students, I strongly recommend that the high school be 24401 Rodney Young Queen City High School Staunton High School named after a place and not a person. Representative and inclusive of the entire valley/city. As an alumna, I'm hopeful the new name will provide 80206 Sarah Young Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School some unity.

The nickname of Staunton is Queen City. If you are taking away the real name of our school at least give us a name that we all like and that name is 24401 Whitney Young Queen City High School Queen City high school 24401 Kathryn Young-dunay Staunton High School N/a Peace I like the name and I think it is confusing because Staunton River High 24401 Denise Yurish Queen City High School School already exists. 24401 Collin Yurish Queen City High School It’s got character Queen City High School is not named after a person whose name and actions cannot be viewed differently over time depending on what is going on in the society at that time. The name also 24401 Olivia Yurish Queen City High School Queen City Royals sounds cool. Sounds cool. No way for the name to get misconstrued. And we can keep the 24401 Cooper Yurish Queen City High School Queen City royals same color 24401 Mark Yurish Queen City High School Staunton High School Better represent Staunton.

As a graduate of Robert E. Lee High School in the class of 1995, I fully support the name change. I think that in keeping with the history of the high school, and not losing who we are, reverting back to Staunton High School is a solid choice. Many older diplomas - even some after the school was coined Robert E. Lee - state Staunton High School as the place of graduation. Thank you so much for the opportunity to weigh in on the issue and for your undeniable willingness to hear all 24437 Shannon Zaccaria Staunton High School N/A voices.

24401 Courtney Zacharias Staunton High School because it much better than the others 24401 Sara Zacharias Queen City High School No It’s different and unique...

Staunton high is the original name, and is the best option when it comes to finding so called "middle ground" with 24401 Stefan Zdanski Queen City High School Staunton High School the save the name voter base 24401 Chad Zenzen Staunton High School I like the name 24401 Niki Zenzen Staunton High School Why not 24401 Karmah Zewil Queen City High School It sounds the best. 22812 Madison Zigler Staunton High School Lee High School Everyone already calls it Lee Staunton High School is the school's original name and makes sense due to 24441 Kristin Zimmer Staunton High School Queen City High School its location.

We were Staunton HS before all that changing names durring Jim Crow Era. It should also be the least contraversial 24401 Keith Zimmerman Staunton High School name and most easily accepted. 24401 Brenda Zimmerman Queen City High School Staunton High School Simple and non controversial It is inclusive of all students and 24401 Monica Zinn Staunton High School - families in our community.

Staunton High School seems simple. Queen City is popular and would 24401 Ben Zipperer Queen City High School Shenandoah Valley High School Staunton High School distinguish it from other names.

Because of the man Robert E. Lee really was. Please teach today's youth proper history and not the false accusations 24450 Brandon Zollman Robert E. Lee pushed by liberal agendas.
