Best of the 3 options

I submitted Bill Boffinger high, it did not make the cut, will always be Robert E Lee high for me

They picked the best name but I would have chosen Ulysses S. Grant High School.

Naming it after a Christian college? Bold move cotton.

Everyone knows it is always going to be referred to as "The old Lee High School", right?

Why is so hard to just name a school after the neighborhood it’s in?

Frick naming it after anyone. And yes, i get liberty isn’t a person but Southdowns high wouldn’t have even been that tough to go with.

I spent 8 years teaching at a school that in June decided to replace the Rebels mascot that they have used for over 60 years.

The school district calculated that it would cost between 250 and 500k to replace all of the Rebel wording and imagery
